This is a model I made intended for another game, but wanted people's opinions on it. I don't think it really fits anyone faction's general ship concepts looking at them, too curvy I think lol. But wanted people's opinions.
Was built in Blender 3D, was intended for an organic-ship using race. I think it looks like a frigate, but could be pushed to a cruiser perhaps. Anyway, I'm posting here to see how I can improve models I make later on.
PS ignore the textures. As I said, was inspired for another game using a different texture (and I'm no good at texturing atm anyway lol) [ This Message was edited by: Comet on 2012-05-07 18:08 ]

With a shape like that it makes me think more of a really big capital class ship. What comes to mind first is the Star Wars Mon Calamari ships.

I dunno about replacement for a DS game lol. But I guess with right texturing and ofc a few modifications it could?
lately though I had a bit of inspiration on a ship more like DS, so I'll try find a bit of time to make it (before I forget lol)
Thnx for input though =)

It's a style breaker though. It doesnt reflect the style of any faction. It kinda looks like the offspring of a three faction orgy, but it doesnt resemble any one faction enough, imho.

It looks a little like a K'luth cruiser.

UV Unwrapped and used 3rd party client to texture it (Gimp). Not figured out how to texture it in blender yet, I can get the paint brush, but all that happens when I click is I cant move my cursor lol. So gave up and export the map.
Also, I did put it in fan art, but someone moved it to Soap Box >.>
@Azreal: Yeah I never really thought this would be seen in DS because like ya said, doesnt look like any one of the ships. I suppose it kinda looks like a K'Luth cruiser (Kinda like a parasite etc) but thats about it lol.
@Silent Threat: Well it was meant to be a Frigate in the other game I played, as the faction it was intended for has a Cruiser already, and this fit the style + size of a Frigate in the otehr game so kept it same here. But looking at it it probably does look more like a Cruiser at least for DS
