i made that model to practice around with metasequia. .. its basicly a "Sovezky Soyuz class cruiser" ( Battletech ) - but since that game is rather unknown - i don t think this ship comes with too many stereotypes.
well - its there - and maybe it fits a role and could replace an existing ship ( maybe liberty attack frigate or order cruiser ) - posted it in the order request thread, too. its not exactly freelancer style, but closer than maybe the star wars models. ( at least it shares the rather low-tech feeling and the size )

it has modelled hardpoints for 8 guns/turrets - but was only meant as a practice piece to get used to the new program. - anyway... i don t think the order needs a destroyer class ship. not to mention that it doesn t look too much like freelancer. ( its too thin )
edit: as allways - those textures are only on the ship to make working with it easier. nothing that really fits it. its an extremely simple model - hardly many custom shapes - and it only has around 400 polygons.
:rolleyes:Sorry, couldn't help it...Order already have a cruiser, and Liberty has far to many ships as is...Maybe a Rheinland battlecruiser? It looks like a giant Valkyrie/Wrath...

oh - i think the order was requesting a smallish warship like a destroyer / cruiser. - if liberty... its certainly not to ADD something - but to replace. the current battlecruiser is not really fitting in well. ( allthough its much better than the albatros )
i think it doesn t look like a rheinland ship at all. its by no means massive enough. rheinland ships look like tanks.

Order have a cruiser? Ive not seen one in the mod yet or is one being made?.
Because it looks spot on for the Order in my opinion, or if they have one in the works it could be scaled down and made into a gunboat for the Order?.
Very nice work Jinx, your ships are getting very impressive, I really like the new Jug you've made aswell.

Vaporlynx made one, and it looks utterly awesome. Its called the Horus (No..its not the old one with four poles on the front, its the new cruiser with an osiris front).

That screams Rheinland Battlecruiser to me, with a bit of retexturing, one I would definitely pay for, as a card-carrying capwhore. Also, thicken the wings a bit, I think, and make it so htat the forward edge is flat.

rheinland allways appears like one of those houses that doesn t need anything. they are never complaining:laugh:. just good old germans who stick to their tank like ships.
allright, rheinland ships offer little room for complaints. - do they need something like a battlecruiser? - isn t it more a rheinlandish way to..... if a cruiser cannot handle it - send in the battleship ( in the end, they are mass producing thouse - well, as much as its possible to manufacture something like that in masses anyway )
but allright:)- i ll modify it a little for a more rheinlandish style - maybe it ends up looking like something useful.
Actually, I think Rheinland needs BCs more than Liberty does.. They use heavy-armor, heavy-firepower, flying bricks.. Thats what battlecruisers are. Exceptionally strong cruisers, which is exactly what the Military would use.
But if this were to be used as a Rheinland ship, it needs to be a bit more blocky. Look at the GB, Cr, and BS. All have shapr edges, and blocky images. Bretonians have flowing lines, Liberty has naval-like ships (if this is made Liberty instead, PLEASE replace the Liberty Assault Frigate with it), and Kusari has fin/dragon-like ships.
