Its never too much work.
I swear on the ashes of Freeport-7 that I will not stop until I and/or other modelers have managed to replace every stinking homeworld ship in the mod.
Say it with me; "DOWN WITH IMPORTS!" :yahoo:
Ok, so theres two modified versions here, the second tries to move the cockpit 50% of the way up the body to break up the 'racing' feel for good.

An idea did strike me, if we pursue option two then I can take the original concept and make it a 'KS' (*insert new corporation name*) sponsored racing ship.

' Wrote:*Optometrists voice* "Which one is better, one or two?"The second one looks better. Not like some falling leave.:PIf you make it more bulky, you will get rid of the racer.

Yus, more asymmetrical ships please. I like it, though your textures are stretched... but you did say it was a rough draft.
EDIT:
#2 looks better.
KS Line - Belco - 09-19-2009
damn it man, both look alright, HF and LF right there?:P
i'm kinda for the first option, but i'd be interested to see what the engine looks like, and how it's placed in regards to the rear of the cockpit
KS Line - elgeeko - 09-19-2009
Oh the textures? only thing thats even close to final there is the colors.... I have to go back and spend a great deal of time on mapping.
Ill do some engines (well *an* engine in this case as its an LF) tomorrow, Im exhausted, its 2:05 AM here, and I need to sleep at least a bit.
I'm leaning more towards #2 the more I look at it, even if it involves a bit more 'clean-up' work....
Good call Ventana

Thats a rather odd ship there - it looks like a mining freighter to me.
KS Line - elgeeko - 09-19-2009
It definitely has mining inspirations among other things.
Dorsal/Frontal Textures are almost in their final clean state (still a ways to go though);

But please, take another Skin. Please.

THe skin is fine, I feel

I purposefully chose the utility ships mat(s) and I do have my heart mostly set on them.
(And just think, no appreciable addition to mod size. We can even save some space by removing the old HW ship mats)
I like the current colors too but I am open to persuasion to change them if anyone has another idea. :)
