outcast dreadnaught revised model:

it does look excellent now - except for a few little things. ( but that is mainly due to the fact that its a) blue and b) .... well.... blue [such a term only makes sense when you list at least 2 things] )

wel, in front of the bridge there is a shield ( some blue spike ) - that might be too big ( or as it has been suggested, the bridge section could be raised ) - i think the "spikyness" of that shielding will not be there anymore, once its textured - but atm, it looks rather low detailed compared to the bridge. ( that is, the bridge uses more angles to describe a bow - while the rough armour is a very spiky edge ) - i know that vanilla ships are not very smooth, but they still often use more sections to imitate a curve. - maybe give it one more side - like half a hexagon, instead of just a tetra-eder.

then there is the problem with the size. - from what i see, the bridge section would be like 6 levels high and is around 40% of the full ships hight. - that means that the whole ship would be like 16 levels high. - thats a lot... .

the kusari battleship is ... i believe 12 levels high - and appears to be quite tall. - so if those levels are scaled to compare with the kusari BB, this ship will be huge - especially very long. ( think of something around the hight of a kusari BB, but 2.5 times longer )

in the end, it can be scaled down a little - of course, one cannot compare the ships to each other - or a patriot would be huge compared to a battleship, too.

other than these points, the ship is perfect. - richly enough detailed and well in line with the battleship while being satifactory massive as it should be.

edit: i don t like the tip/front much. - it looks like there must be something to be coming out of the nose. - sensors? a gun? a searchlight? - not sure, antennas might be the best choice - but that what i do on my ships... its not something that fits really to yours. - but it looks like there is something missing, or he gap in the very front makes no sense. ( or fit something like a combat bridge there - something to fill the hole. - it looks like the barrel of a gun that isn t a gun at all )
