Absolutely.

Oh, and thanks for the screenshot, Ryx. I'm going to do a custom foley in Lightwave for that same sort of thing. :)

I'll tweak the engine recession, as for the rest... We'll see.

To make it look like a cruiser:  remove the small wings, and remove the hump at the front since it looks like a cockpit.  Oh and the hanging down bit

To make it look like a fighter: try making the front narrower, but only about the top cut.  Infact make the cockpit area as wide as the cut.
Otherwise it looks pretty good, i like the rear section, top and bottom. :)

Excellent ship...somehow reminds me of something out of Homeworld. :)

The level of detail on it and the number of engines seems to suggest to me a powerful strike corvette (larger with more firepower than the Deimos) or a destroyer.  I like the downward 'tail' but the hexagonal thing underneath looks a little blunt - unless it's a makeshift fighterbay... :nod:
I'm OK. How are you?

about removing stuff that makes it look like a fighter... don't forget that when mapped, it won't look that way.

Looks like a clipper or light trading frigate to me. Lose the hangar-ships big enough for one of those look better chunkier, and that one looks like it'd be too good at zipping about to be something huge.

And depending on how you skin it, you really might not need anymore. Something like the Orion scheme (sides plated, extruded inner edges something more delicate-ideally piping) would look good with all those extruded surfaces sticking out.
Webpage. Yes.
