Again much better, the fins look cool too...

I'd say that's ready to be sent over too

Agreed. Awesome job.
That verandi is candidate for best looking ship in game.

Paranid ships are the hardest to do.....but when done right they are also the best looking ships in the game!

I know it took a few re-works....but look at the result, u did an excellent job expnobody well done!

[Nemesis_87]

I think that paranid M2+ is a SERIOUS contender to favourate ship, that m6 also looks real sweet

[expnobody]

next target..Boron M1P,M2P..another challenge..

[Sn4kemaster]

next target..Boron M1P,M2P..another challenge..

Boron already have a M2+ its called the Megalodon, but they have not got a M1+ so that would be very very nice!

Also most of the commenwealth races dont have models for their M3B carrier bomber's (just share models with other ships)

Other possible future idea's are model replacements for the Paranid M3+ Medusa and ATF M3+ Fenrir (this is my opionion so check with Paul if he wants them changed)

But to be honest really the real real big challange is below....

If you want to really stretch you creative juices further for the XRM, then after the Boron M1+.....well the next biggy really is the model replacement for the OTAS Boreas advanced fast light destroyer (possibly the ugliest ship in the game) and a OTAS carrier and maybe a OTAS M2+!

OTAS are really a Argon faction, but a very advanced company producing cutting egde ship design and weapon's (as Muzuchi once said, they are the Stark industries of the XRM universe)

But i would speak to Paul to find out what he wants 1st......

[paulwheeler]

Maybe ill write a list of everything we're missing...

Off the top of my head:

Boron Pike m4p
All the m3 bombers need models
I'd really like a Griffon replacement actually. The vanilla is a bit small for an m7 and perhaps an internal dock would be better.
Boron m1+
Boron m7 carrier (the current one uses the m7m model)
Boron Marlin m8 (current one isn't great)
Otas Auster m8
Boreas replacement (although I'm not that upset by the vanilla one)
I don't think we should have an entire Otas fleet, so no need for an otas m2+.

If you ever fancy doing station models... All the races (except teladi, Terran and argon) could use their own EDs.

[vkerinav]

The Yaki could use some new ships. The Paranid recolors they're flying are quite beautiful, but could easily be handed off to Duke's. For original models, they have only;

M1+
M2

About the Boreas--the main reason I'd say it needs replacing now is not because the model is ugly or not(an opinion that varies, obviously), but because it no longer fits with the OTAS style, as defined by the Astraeus and Aquilo.

The same isn't true of the Fenrir; it could be a little wider, but it fits with ATF fighter designs.

[expnobody]

oh wow, that's a long list

internal dock requires a big ship body, so Griffon need to scale up ALOT to get it fit

Boron M1+ and long list of M3B will keep me busy for a while..then we will see

[Mad_CatMk2]

keep it up expnobody...

you're doing great work!

enjoy seeing your models come to life

[vkerinav]

Don't feel like you have to do them all. It might not seem like it sometimes, but we do know you that you do this for fun, and we certainly wouldn't want it to become an obligation.

[paulwheeler]

Absolutely - only do what you want to do. You've already contributed more than enough.

[expnobody]

my goal is to become the Anaheim Electronics of the X Universe

[expnobody]

came back from school, have some free time, hands are feeling itchy..so..yep

ATF M3Bomber
2 seats, larger body for missile storage, less concentrate on maneuverability, larger thruster...every thing is slightly push up optimize space for bombs/missile (just because it's logical)
