Obstitution?
You used my (joke) name! Cookie!
I sure did, dude! It works, so, why not?
It almost looks like it could be a JJVerse version of the Oberth. Cookie for you Aries.
Thanks! I didn't originally intend for that look, but after rendering out those screenies, I think I might just flow with it, ya'know? Besides, we don't have enough JJ-verse art, in my opinion. Gonna be tough making the pylons flow the way I want, though...
well there goes the need to redo my MKII Oberth. looks good brudda!
No, not at all! I totally encourage everyone to create their own works of art despite whether or not the subject is similar (Wiley's making that ship that looks a hell of a lot like the Mithra, for example... but hey, the thing looks pretty sweet!); promoting multiple variants and options to choose from for gamers of various styles. (Again, the Mithra, Wiley's own variant of similar design, the original Achilles I based the Mithra design on, etc...)
Edit::
Additionally, I'd like to report that the above renders were done with no special settings (just stock Mental Ray settings) so any errors could be visible at any time. I'm very happy to report that so far, this model has no errors!
