I'm not sure if what we're looking at is my lack of skill, or just crappy UV mapping. Either way, I'm not really happy with it, but I wanted to share before I gave up on it.

Looks pretty nifty.

Make a new base though! More fun!

I love it. True Shivan.

i thought it looked borg-esq when i first saw it due to dark an pannely

Fine tune it to your liking, I'd like to add it to my site.

For the record, there's nothing original there at all, it's just textures extracted from Freespace 2 layered on top of the original Alleg textures. I'm sure anyone who's even looked at the GIMP or Photoshop could do the same.

I had to smudge the textures for the top and bottom of the main hull to get them to look even remotely okay, the UV mapping is really just awful. If I were to start over, I think I might try my hand at recreating a UV map. That said, I think I might try and make an op from scratch, I have done a little modeling, and I need an excuse to learn Truespace 7. Probably not going to make any original textures though, I simply don't have the skill.

Nice idea but the model isn't really spiky enough to look shivan. You could probably make some nice stuff using a few of the dreg models.

Also, the high res addicts need other factions reskinned. IC already has high res stuff.

I think ya did good!
