Sunburst replacement. Done on 31 Dec 2014

IMO the second one looks better, the frame offers more detail and it encapsulates the rear of the ship very good.
BTW I love that chin sticking out .

[Syrus]

Maybe put two round tanks on top where the ship folds down towards the engines? I feel like it is missing something there.

Besides that, happy to see that you got rid of the antennas. No idea why everyone wants those on there, they always seem so out of place...

Yes, yes, Syrus
Can't help myself not to place folded wing-like antennaes....

FL MOD(EL)MAKING: TOOLS, RESOURCES, TUTORIALS AND MY SHIPS (OLD)

I am on discord: Roal-Yr#5994, I don't log on forum more than a few times a year.

I am not making ships for FL anymore, I am making my own space game instead:

I was thinking along the lines of the antennas sloped upwards along the ship instead of downwards.

Or perhaps go for a bit of fun asymmetry and stick one antenna facing up/backwards on one of the circular "nodes" (that look like a gun hardpoint, probably is one).

It seems very reminiscent of the 84 Waran, really. Did you already consider the placement for the guns and such?

Looking at the old Waran, I guess the silhouette from that angle is vaguely similar, but that's it. A texture will change that too.

I would buy it if it had a decent powercore recharge, but since with my setups powercores drain faster then a smashed bottle....

This Galaxy is vast; its wonders and beauty are almost unfathomable. But the galaxy also hides dark secrets, some of which have lain dormant since the beginning of time itself. There is a danger in secrets, both in seeking and in knowing. Some things are meant to be hidden from view. Some mysteries defy understanding, and sometimes even the things we think we know are untrue. Some secrets should remain untouched.

They always screw my awesome 360 degree turret hardpoints.... So not much sense. And how the hell did you find old Waran anywhere similar?

That looks better than with the antennas. D;
Not entirely sure yet though. And yeah, turret hardpoints are a question...
