I think if the fish head tail was turned horizontal, it would make the entire ship look horrible.

Its damn nice as it is! :mad: :mad: :mad:

Great design. Great looking ship. Doesn't look Vasudan in the slightest IMHO :)
Be warned: This site's admins stole 100s of hours of my work. They will do it to you.

 
Hmm. I think it would look better if the tail were the back and fat, detailed bit were the front. If anyone remembers the Galor-class Cardassian warships out of Star Trek, you'll know what I mean.

Galor's are ugly, IMO. At least, they were the last time I looked at one.

I have made a few changes to the model, but I'm not sure I'll keep those.:blah:

Very vasudan. However, I think the fish tail should stay in the front. Makes it look like it is definately NOT terran.

 
agreed, how about either taking off the top spikey bit at the front, or angling them both backwards a bit more......

Here's an idea. Add a large blister to both sides of the top fin, as if a sphere was lodged in it. I think it would make it look more alien, and it could serve as a sensor subsystem.

The fins - fish tail, stays vertical. I like them that way.

Very... Cool!!! I go with Bobboau... add something on the bottom... the fish thing looks cool :)
Yeah, I know you were waiting for a very nice sig, in which I was quoting some very famous scientist or philosopher... guess what?!? I wont indulge you...

Why, you ask? What, do I look like a Shivan to you?!?

As you can see, I'm attempting to make my own textures, though less successfully.

I'll add more colour later, but for the moment, the brown colours will do. I hate the 2D part.
Feel free to pass any tips 'n tricks my way.

have you tried the Hapshepsut textures?  They will probably look just as good.

Exactly what crossed my mind. Exactly why it is so cool.

That's beautiful! :eek:

I wouldn't change a thing about the design. :yes:
It looks more like a strike corvette or something though, smallish and fast with a decent array of weapons upfront.

Ryx, don't try to create your own textures for capships... the FS2 do just as good :)

BTW, I think that the texes used for Bobboau's Apep and Amit will look very cool on that Destroyer :)

:jaw: were are the good smilies when we need them?  Good texturing job, brings out the detail well and should fit in nicely with the original Vasudan capships.
