engine on kohr-ah planet destroyer
« on: June 20, 2010, 11:00:36 am »

ok need some feedback on the engine for my kohr-ah planet destroyer i made for act 2 of my animation kinda a bit sloppy because i just got tired of working on the model but it look too bad? put a kohr-ah destroyer beside the planet destroyer for scale.  would a planet destroyer be bigger?

Nicely done...
However, the first thing which comes into my mind as I look at the picture is the Daktaklakpak Vivisector ^_^

Also, please resize the image or give a link instead of the full-scale form. It's simply too big.

It never existed. Purge all thoughts of the abomination that was SC3 from your mind.

When I look at it, it does not say "Kohr-Ah", mostly due to two things: First - spikes and protrusions. I always perceived Kohr-Ah as "elegant and efficient" killers. All those things added on the hull appear intimidating, but without function. Not Kohr-Ah style. Second thing is the color scheme - too much red. Yes, Kohr-ah are black and red, but descriptions say "Dark as space itself" and "black over darkness of space". This version is way too red to fit the description.

I'm not sure how the 'dark as space itself' applies to the planet destroyers Wink. I reckon that the red parts are the parts that require more energy, and that the marauder is more of an energy efficient vessel than this planet destroyer..
I like it Smiley

As stated, it really doesn't look like something the Kohr-Ah would make, and also reminds me most of the Vivisector. However, it is a nice looking model to be sure.

With all the spikyness it really does have a very Shivan look.

I like it, personally.  I'm also of the opinion that not all Kohr-Ah vessels are required to be "black as space" just because the Marauders were.  (That said the new Marauder model you made also has a fair bit of red on it, but it looks cool so I can get over that.)

indeed.. we have stealth planes with low energy emissions, but we have high energy planes aswell for the bigger jobs Wink

As a wannabe artist I really admire what you've created. The gothic look fits the Kohr-Ah in my opinion and the red color works nicely as an artistic element. The only thing that I seem to be looking for is some post-render composition, such as glow and similar effects. The red clouds might be a bit to empty as well.

Other than that: Thumbs up
