From this angle both ships look cool. You should use em both.. :)

Anyway not so fond of this front section on your ship. That changes the overhaul shape to much same goes for those large antennas stretching across the front section

I'm sorry but this is my favorite ship in the mod, so I have to chime in. I don't agree with the above poster: I much prefer the FX Turanic Carrier shape and front section, as it is more representative of the original concept art ( Shipyards.relicnews.com ). The HW Remastered version retains too many of the visual sacrifices made on the ship's original concept by the original HW's polygon budget.

I definitely wouldn't mind if both were used, though.

I see well in that case it's a fantastic recreation. I still think it's somewhat awkward but probably just because we were used to for so long to see them not like in the concept arts..

ultimatly that original concept is just one of the concepts of the turanics carrier and for what ever reason be it the limit the engine could of made or what ever else, its certain there was many versions of the thing in concept form, gear box didnt set out to make it a completely different design they wanted to recreate the ship as we saw it in our minds way back when homeworld was first released regardless though both the fx and gearbox versions look good

Description

The FXmod has its own style. It will thus include its own models instead of using the versions Gearbox made for HW:RM. These models have been designed based on the original HW concept art and come in HQ quality.
