Molly Very heavy fighter (abandoned)

[Veronee]

I couldn't find a modelling or artwork thread:(If there is one I apologize for posting this here.

Anyhow looking at how liberty and mollies share a VHF (and some other ships for that matter) left me feeling a little disapointed. But rather than let it get me down I decided to design some ships for the Mollies (they are my fave faction). However the ships they fly in game are rather generic and not unique at all. So I kinda had to wing it on design. This is what I came up with.



Note the VHF is the ship on the LEFT. The one on the right is the beginnings of a bomber but I thought I would include it anyhow just to show how I would make the concept carry through to other ship design.

Two quarter views:





Now I'm not too sure of what kinds of design flaws one can expect when making a ship for a mod of this nature. One I'm unsure of is that the ships profile is quite small. So I took 2 quick renders of sort of mid and long distance. Please tell me if you feel the ship represents too small of a target:

Mid Distance:


Long Distance:


Anyhow, Here is a final top view:


And here starts the texture work. Currently I have done very very little, but this is the kind of texture job I'm considering. Note: the green lines and brown area's are just cause I haven't filled them yet. Tell me what you think:D



Please feel free to suggest improvements or if you feel I should change elements to make it more.. "Molly" etc.

Thanks for your time
