Born of a dissatisfaction with Homeworld 2, the Homeworld:@ team is building upon the foundations of Homeworld and Homeworld:Cataclysm to create a faithful sequel in the Homeworld:2 engine, with new ships, storyline, and game mechanics.
This time, with better AO and with smoothing groups attached. The red areas are marking down where glows will eventually be.
A careful look at the higher resolution render should clarify some details and, for those familiar with our Vaygr ships, give a few benchmarks for this ship's sheer size. As for its seemingly gossamer and delicate construction, well... let us just say that looks can be deceiving. And if nothing else, it is a very visual cue of this design's trade-off of heavy armor for a... significant amount of firepower.
The rear flaps in particular are segmented and designed to fold close to the hull for a tighter-fitting hyperspace window and construction launch. We'll try and get a few different views up soon, too.
Epic! :D
