uhmn, it kinda fails to... illustrate its purpose...
i dont know how to put this.... Conferene was about having a ship, that was primarily meant for political and diplomatical conferences, allowing you to go to somewhere, talk with the right people, without bringing a ship thats threatening, but at the same time, not on the low-end side of the "protection detail" scale..
the new textures looks more like a "Sit down or ima rip you a new one" ship...
perhaps tone it down a tad.... im thinking about the iRP legacy here... if someone brought that over to talk, i'd be more worried about their ulterior motives then the negotiations itself. Its just, scary looking..
anyway, change is good. I like the old Conference, but i'd personally see a new toned down paintjob then the proposed skin, simply because it doesnt feel like a ship meant for a peace-loving faction.
Great model, much better than the current one but doesn't fit the zoners. Where are the curved lines that we're getting used to for Zoners. Nephilim and Osprey fit that profile but this one doesn't. But it still is a better quality model than the current Conference. Might fit in the Order line better.
I like it. I never really like the "spike" tail motif of the current models and I like how this model is more functional. The only thing I am worried about right away is I dont know if the texture is appropriate.
Would be nice to get the two cruisers updated too.
