I'm not getting the sense of fear that Phantoms should incur from this vessel.
And Nitecrawler: Why bother with Babylon 5 Shadows? We try to be original;)
Umm.. did I say use the model? No.. I was simply giving an example of how spikey extentions can give a ship a more "evil" look.
its been a while - but every now and then its about making a concept for one of the more "difficult" factions.
this is an idea for the huntress cruiser - a rather small and compact and vertical cruiser. - the entire capship line could be build around that concept.
- the primary idea is to make something alien looking without making it look totally out of place
- something manacing ( well - at least i find imagining it coming out of a nebula quite manacing )
How about this then, if it is not to hard to model. Those nice rounded pedels.. stretch them out to the rear making them thinner and a little more narrow.. comming to jagged trailing edges..
Can't really say anything about the actual model, since I've never seen any phantom ships ingame.
But about it being vertical: Wouldnt it be hell to fly that thing? I mean, some caps already get in the way of the camera, and most of them have a somewhat horizontal design.
But this would be WOOSH right in the center of the screen, blocking a good bit of the view.
