Something I was working, probably not going to end up in the game, but I would like some feedback anyways.

What is it? Flying rock? The model look good, only don't know what that big hump at the back is.

That looks really cool. Good idea. I presume it's like a nearby place where you can drop off your mining efforts? Later you can go back and buy it back?

Yeah, it's some kind of asteroid station I'm working on.

I like the model and I wish I could see it wearing a nice texture but I dont like asteroid stations...
Good job through, DartStriker.

Suggestions:
Add two docking bays (or atleast one)
Make more metal contructions around it

I think that is all:laugh:

if it intends to go ingame then make it GMS (Gallic Metal Service)
cause EFL is kinda more into Oil and Machinery, more then Metal ores and such things

but the model more looks like a ship then a base

Needs more machines- hydraulics are probably the way to go. Something that looks like it isn't firmly attached to the rock, even if the main facility anchors it there. It's a good start, glad to see some bases being made.


Alternatively, you might be able to turn this into some sort of research station without much fuss.

Is this supposed to be a GMS variant of those 'Gas Miners' that you can find in Sigma Worlds where instead of gas you would work with metals?

Some visible docking points would be good.

Some wheels and gears and some gas emissions coming out of it should make it look like an ore processing center as well.

I like the model. Keep working on it,Gallia needs some love.

Remember docking points can be added later as a separate part. If this did make it in game I would get it in as some add on to a mining station. But things like gas and stuff, would all have to be put in later. I did add two stacks where some gases could come out of on it. I don't think having gears and wheels visible is to viable of an option since that would mean whatever room those exposed gears are in wouldn't have pressure.

I do like the hydrolics Idea, and getting the main part of this station away from the rock. All good advice so far. Thanks a lot.
