Corsair Gunboat replacement

[RingoW]

After reading the comments and critics i have to agree, this concept looks not "bad" enough to match the imagination of a Corsair GB. Its indeed more civilian.
In the next try i will combine design of freighter with more elements of the overworked cruiser.
I was able to make a sideview drawing and it looks really bad. I have no scanner, so you will see it, when i have finished the model, at least, without skin.

The Corsair ships, vanilla as well as the added models of mine using names of roman empire/republic and military. Thats why i also try to implement design elements from. The much discussed spikes, think about a caree of legionaires covered by shields with spears pointing out. Bird of prey elements. The vanilla Corsair fighters already have it slightly. On my ships i formed it out much more.
Okay, bull/ram horns on new cruiser and freighter are a homage to the official Corsair symbol on the rp server.

I wont rework the Toolbox, because i have the opinion it makes no sense to replace the import with a similar looking model.

Honestly IMO, all the current cap ships don't even fit in with the Corsairs. AoM got a good design there but might need some modifcations. Also, designing a ship that will fit in with a factioin's theme isn't easy. Good Job Angel, I look forward to seeing your next desgins.

Looks great. All I ask is that it makes a nice pretty explosion for us Hessians and Outcasts. Looks much better then the lunchbox.

Okay, there is another concept, unskinned though.

Base is a Bird of prey style (no, not the Klingon) combined with cruiser and freighter elements:



There is a bit of work left, concerning some more details. It has 4 smaller engine exhausts, while the center one will house the thruster only. For me it makes more sense, than a small fighter thruster attached somewhere. Arms configuration is the same as before.

looks good, cant wait for the final result, i find it really corsair like.

Looks better then that first one.

And it fits Corsairs very well. Good job.

Very nice. I like the new model quite a lot, but It looks sort of big. Could we get a size comparison?

I love it...
Escecially the front"blade"...
thumbs up for you AoM

[kindred]

The latest attempt looks much better as a Corsair gunboat, let's see it with some textures and a size comparison.
