Sweet! Any volunteers for modeling it? Apparently it has even a docking bay. :D

Its about the same size as a Coriolis although the shape is obviously different. the docking bay can be made a little larger. (yes that is a docking bay)

This reminded me of the Mondoshawan ship from the film, The Fifth Element.

Can't believe the coincidence! This was the first thread I read this morning, and last night before going to bed I watched The Fifth Element on DVD! :lol:

Turn it on it's side, and it starts to resemble a mining/pirate base from WC Privateer. :)

I can try...when I'll have some spare time to dedicate to this project.
Today I'm felt inspired (also thanks to you, Rusti) and I produced this:

Go to my w.e.b.s.i.t.e (you can find the u.r.l. in my profile), gallery -> new galleries -> galleria uno, look at the last picture.



(sorry but I can't post U.R.L. for now, nOOb protection ^^)

I really like it! Unfortunately if someone put it in the game, the polygon count would kill my system.
