The Pakhet - Tenacity - 08-15-2009

This is my attempt at designing Aki her own unique ship, for reference see this thread:
http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?sh...=44661&st=0

What I was going for when designing the ship was a small but agile cruiser-class ship, with fewer turrets than you'd find on a normal cruiser or even a light cruiser. This is the result, a small frigate-style ship with some phantom-esque design influences:

Stats:
550,000,000 steering (for reference, Kusari destroyer = 700,000,000)
1.4 million power (Same as corvo cruiser / kusari destroyer)
200,000 armor (kusari destroyer = 240,000)
6 Class 9 Cruiser Turret Hardpoints
Class 9 Cruiser Shield Hardpoint
Countermeasure Hardpoint
Cruise Disruptor Hardpoint
Thruster Hardpoint

So, gif input, nao.

Not bad, not bad at all.

Apologies, I find it ugly.

Having said that, you are the one flying it, so if you like the look that is all that is important.

(I have not looked at stats and I am, at this point in time, not discussing anything about getting it in-game, for you.)

An okay shape, but it looks like just that - a basic shape, little else. I think it needs more details.


The Pakhet - Eppy - 08-15-2009

I like it. Could sleeken up the wings a bit, but otherwise very nice.


The Pakhet - Camtheman Of Freelancer4Ever - 08-15-2009

I like it, but it needs moar details, like shaders and bump-maps...


The Pakhet - Janus - 08-15-2009

I like the front half, not so sure on the rear.

What I'd do differently however, I'm not sure. I have a couple of ideas, no idea how they'd look in reality.

I shall list them anyway, maybe they're useful, maybe (more likely) they're not.


For both suggestions, the two centreline hardpoints would need to be moved foward, say around midhips

After that, narrowing the two wings, but keeping orientation the same, perhaps one engines width, not so.

Alterntive, rotate the wings through 90 degrees and shorten the top one.


The Pakhet - lw'nafh - 08-15-2009

Although it DOES look like a modified Scimitar, with a bit of a Phantom feel.


The Pakhet - reavengitair - 08-15-2009

I like it!

Can I haz join with joo?

just to point out, those textures you are using arent actually being used ingame, they were just an experiment which i created in photoshop by editing some of the vanilla textures, so yeah, they aint exactly phantom textures (incidentally, i made the textures to use with the model i was working on for a huntress replacement)
