The Valerius Project (New Adira) -FINISHED-

[Gunnvaldr]

White and gold would look interesting. Not sure it's appropriate, but it could look good...

It's based on an observation I made, almost every Centauri Noble has some form of purple and gold on their attire, except for the Emperor's who's predominatly white

 

[[Omicron]Urobach]

OK...some new stuff.

the "possible new design" i call it Devoras class advanced cruiser.

it needs some more detail work but i am satisfied with the result. until now...
what do your mean...?

 

[M1ndr1d3rs]

I see you positioned the ventral wing a bit more foreward than conventional Centauri designs... Interesting.

How does it work with the aerodynamics (or is it astrodynamics)? The Liati is supposed to be highly maneuverable so it can hunt all those pesky White Stars, right?

Alas, I'm no rocket scientist so I can't say much.

 

[Gunnvaldr]

It certainly looks more predatorial then the Liati model but I feel it's missing something (besides the left wing )

hrm I wonder if you place the laser cannons like the Dargan midwing might make it more aggressive?

All to gether i get the 'Bird of prey' feel from it so far

 

[Lord David the Denied]

So far, so good noble Hun. I assume there will be a port-side wing to match the starboard wing we see there? Plus some turrets? I support the lasers in the wings idea, too. Looking pretty good so far.

 

[Nomad]

Moving the ventral fin forward gives a better location for the stand.

 

[[Omicron]Urobach]

thanks...so far so good.
how sayed...it is an "possible" design.
i try out some other design, also.

pics follow...

 

[Lord David the Denied]

Looking forward to the photos, noble Tueton.

i think aerodynamic is not relevant in space, but when it is capable of atmospheric flights, like the vorchan, then i think it is possible with this design.
i think it looks agile to do his job, currently
and this is important for the other design if i want to try out...an agile look.

...whitestars??? EAT THIS....naked chickens. :twisted:

 

[Da Boss]

As ever - great work - I think it would look even better with a larger top fin -maybe to match the two side ones and a slighter longer beak (?) but its all good

 

[[Omicron]Urobach]

OK...how is this???

it based on the design of my Sulust/Haven - conversion (the ship in the background)

i am very happy with it... 8)

 

[Da Boss]

Oh yeah i will be buying that 8)

 

[Lord David the Denied]

Oh mama... :shock:

 

[emperorpenguin]

I like both designs, excellent work!

I second the call for a turret weapon to be added

 

[Target]

I would prefer the wing further forward but a lot better mongoose's attempt.

 

[[Omicron]Urobach]

OK...i think we have an winner.

it needs still some "beauty corrections" and some more surface detail work. but i take this design. i am happy with it, how sayed... 8)

 

[[Omicron]Urobach]

I would prefer the wing further forward but a lot better mongoose's attempt.

i try it out how it looks. this is that good with this clay...it is really hard and you can change small detail in seconds....really great stuff for sculptors and modelbuilders like me.

 

[M1ndr1d3rs]

Hmmm, looks more dangerous... Like it Nice balance of edges and curves, but IMHO, the head could use some more edges. Just a thought.
Can't wait to see the final result.

If this is anywhere near as good as your Valerius.. well, next tournament will see most "ann summers special" retired. :lol:

Devoras kinda rings a bell... Romulan Warbird? :?

 

[emperorpenguin]

Devoras kinda rings a bell... Romulan Warbird? :?

yes it was a Romulan Warbird (Data's Day)

you are very critical with me.... :lol:
the head becomes an more "dangerous" look,still

"anywhere near good"...better :lol:

oh yes....i remember...your guys know to many star trek episodes. :roll: :lol:
forgot this name....it is really difficult to create new centauri ship names that sounds good and fit to the ship.

my new favorites,..how is: Drakoner, Nero, Serapio, Longinus, Caudex, Viridius, Corvinius ???
