[Release] GVF Corybant
Thought i start a new thread for this one
to get some practice with quixel 2.0 i reworked this ship originally from the ASW3 dump to be more vasudan and textured it with some PBR textures:

It's an intercepter

Try to add some vasudan-styled plating. Awesome work :yes:. I love this model.

You could add some blue stripes/lights here and there on the wings. Might help with the vasudan feel.
It looks quite good as it stands right now though, just feels a bit empty on details on the wings IMO.

Those wings are gigantic, and don't seem to do anything for the model. I feel like the entire wing assembly could be squashed to 50% on the Y axis, and it would feel a bit more Vasudan. Observe:

Wings are fine for me. But indeed they need some more details painted on them (normalmap can do miracles as well :)). I'm more confused about simple, circular engine nozzles. That's not a common thing in vasudan designs. But it's not a tragedy as they are hidden behind the exhaust flames for the 99% of gameplay.

I love Galemp's squashed look a lot but I'm cool either way.

You should remember this model was intended to be an Ancient interceptor for ASW. fightermedic is doing a good texturing job so far (though it needs some panneling but it's still WIP I guess), and he did change the principal engine nozzle that had some strange tentacles. Also, the long wings give it a slim profile, whichsells it as a fast fighter, I say keep it.

Galemp's version makes it look more like it was based on the Ulysses's design, to me.

<Aesaar> literary criticism is vladimir putin

<MageKing17> "There's probably a reason the code is the way it is" is a very dangerous line of thought. :P
<MageKing17> Because the "reason" often turns out to be "nobody noticed it was wrong".
(the very next day)
<MageKing17> this ****ing code did it to me again
<MageKing17> "That doesn't really make sense to me, but I'll assume it was being done for a reason."
<MageKing17> **** ME
<MageKing17> THE REASON IS PEOPLE ARE STUPID
<MageKing17> ESPECIALLY ME

<MageKing17> God damn, I do not understand how this is breaking.
<MageKing17> Everything points to "this should work fine", and yet it's clearly not working.
<MjnMixael> 2 hours later... "God damn, how did this ever work at all?!"
(...)
<MageKing17> so
<MageKing17> more than two hours
<MageKing17> but once again we have reached the inevitable conclusion
<MageKing17> How did this code ever work in the first place!?

<@The_E> Welcome to OpenGL, where standards compliance is optional, and error reporting inconsistent

<MageKing17> It was all working perfectly until I actually tried it on an actual mission.

The original looks fine to me.
If any size changes were made, though, I'd say shortening the forward section is more effective than shortening the rear.  Shortening the rear of the wings past the rear of the main hull somehow makes the craft seem stubby.

As far as texturing goes. it looks nice, but it just isn't a vasudan craft without the vaguely scaly looking hull plating.

I think there's a lot more that could be done with that wing geometry other than applying a tile-texture. Just look at the Serapis wings, or the high-poly Hatshepsut. This, it just doesn't feel right for the scale.

Ah well, that's what post-release reskins are for...

I could do some basic texturing like the Shu Mk II if there is a good UV map. One thing I'd love to see is the cockpit canopy going down over the front about 10 to 20 degrees from horizontal in the front. I did that in my Advance Vasudan Interceptor shown in the Vasudan Interceptor thread.

I have to say those panels look off. A voronoi is not great for a fighter. Take your time and draw the panel lines, it'll be a lot better.
I know it, I also used a voronoi on fhe Seth (my first texture) and people insisted on changing it and now I'm proud of what came out.
So, it's not bad but I think you can do better.

yea, i guess you are right
funny enough i just now before reading your post looked at some of your models for inspiration :P
the result will probably still suck, but maybe a bit less
