ICC Corvette/Scout concept. Poly count perhaps too much for a ship of this class, but it's still low nonetheless.

This time I gave it a sharp rakish shape, while retaining a tri-engine config (with that underslung + backpack engine design), and outriggers/nacelles that are a whole lot sharper than the usual ICC design.

The corvette is about as big as a modern day strategic bomber (aka B-1B) so I applied a glass material to where I think the bridge/cockpit would be. Probably not the most accurate representation, but it'll have to do till texturing.

As usual. Comments appreciated.

Looks like a good model for Fighters olol.

But I'd actually like this on Scouts more. Shame we'll likely never see these in-game.

How much time goes into making these things anyway?

OK OK... Now that you said it. Admittedly.. this WAS a fighter model for another game project that went South. LOL. U can ask Shadowalker for confirmation.

I changed the one piece bubble cockpit, into a more airliner/bomber scale cockpit and resized the model.


As for time. It depends. If I have a burst of inspiration I could finish a model in a day or two. This one took me a day to conceptualize and do up. Then the details and fine tuning will take a few more days.

This took about a 3 or 4 days in total.
Texturing will take longer though..... I hate texturing. O_o

Haha. Technically I didn't cheat. The model is mine. I didn't take it from another game. It was a game project that someone started but couldn't see through.

First thing I thought of was Silpheed, it would indeed make a good Fighter model. You may want to make the engines flush with the hull if you want to convert it to a Scout, and maybe remove the bottom engine since Scouts only have 2. Really like the general design though.

Yes that's an idea. Gotta see how I can link the 2 engines to the hull without messing up the mesh.

As for the 3rd engine, I kinda like it. In fact the dread that I'm trying to redo will have the same twin + single underslung engine config.

That looks beast.

I still see scout corvettes resemble fighters and such. They're still a mssive ship (think corvettes from homeworld series).

Your design reminds me of the Blackbird and Varitech Fighter's booster pack. lol

+1 kenny, looks sooooo bad-ass that i'd be scared to fly against it.
speaking of which, wat faction is that for anyway ???? ( crosses fingers and hopes you say 'ICC' )......

just my 2 cents worth........keep up the good work and keep hoping that the devs will eventually add/allow custom hull purchases..
