Description
Assault Frigate based on earlier design. I added the Fire Control Tower Module to show what it would look like upgraded. The ship is mainly Antifighter/Anticorvette that can be further upgraded with an additional tower and CIWS Gun.
Armament:
1x CIWS Deck Gun
1x Medium Caliber Gun
2x Missile Launchers
4x Heavy Caliber Gun
8x Archer Missile Pods
Its sooo beautiful
Orgasmmmm... who has a sock?
very nice. i love it!
Thanks! Might tweak around the inner 'maw' section a bit.
Hello beautiful.
It may be the least Halo influenced ship yet, but I like it. AFF influenced?
The V is a nice touch.
Hmm, I think its a bit much perhaps.
Yeah, I'm probably going to tweak the front a little, probably not going to keep that fin inside the 'maw'.
I'm not sure about the massively sticky out storage fin on the bottom or the really tiny arms/engines, looks like you went really alien in some areas and then did little to modify the original frigate sections like the bridge and arms, particularly the angular area leading up to the bridge - in the Reach frigate, that's just an extension of the upper arm's design, making it flow quite well, but here it looks a bit out of place.
Generally just feels like there's a lack of cohesion between different elements of it
Well, it does have to look different somehow, the lower boom is basically just one big tower with a gun on it, this particular assault frigate doesn't have a lower cargo bay section. Ignore the bridge though, it's basically going to look just like the one on the other frigate (I just quickly sketched that area without much though because I already had it modeled and textured)
I did want it to look really similar to the frigate in some areas though, in fact the engines are identical to the classic frigates, as well as the bridge, two areas of the ship that I don't think would vary much among frigate classes.
I noticed the fire control tower on the back, very nice.
