Ship modellers!

[Jinx]

since Seth Karlo asked me to come up with something - i this is a concept of a - well... at least cruiser sized vessel. - i seached for the original starlancer ships, too - but found them all to be too oblong, too low on detail and overall - pretty boring ( except the kusari warship, which looks a bit like a poor mans battlestar )

so that is what i got atm. - seth karlo said he liked something along the lines of the old outcast dreadnought - this is a more elegant, sleeker design with a huge reactor chamber - it might look a bit "too elegant" for a rather conservative and functional freelancer world though.

edit: that fixed turret at the front is optional - i was experimenting with modelled turrets or gunmounts.

now .... the bad news is - this kind of concept just won t do for anything larger than a battlecruiser - and even a battlecruiser might be a bit too much. - the design is just too sleek, too small for something larger. in my opinion, ... a cruisersized ship at most - a large cruiser ( length ) but rather narrow. - but it doesn t really look like an alliance warship. - it d be strange if the alliance had come up with a ship like that - 1000 years ago, which looks like it comes from the future.

texturing that one will be a pain. - there s almost no straight face on it. its all somewhat round but not round enough. - i got a nice "organic" texture - but that would turn it into some kind of organic ship - it would fit well, but not into freelancer haha.
