Hi!

Being quite a StarCraft fan, I wanted to build such a model for quite some time now... finally I got my hands on a high poly model I could use as reference for my own mesh.

Please note that this still a WIP, so the polycount is still over 5000 polygons.
I will release the model as a ST:Armada I/II add-on.

Thumbnails:

(1)VED-Battlecruiser "Libertè"
(2)View on the Fuel(?) Structures amidships
(3)Interstellar Engines (at least I suppose the are the FTL drives)
(4)Sublight Plasma engines
(5)Rendered Wireframe
(6)Wireframe in Milkshape

Critics and Comments?

EDIT:
Update!
I have it now down to 2722 polies, but it does not look as good as the 5000 poly-mesh.

Looking great Intrepid. Awesome mesh as always, never played Starcraft but the design of that ship is really good and I can't wait to see this released. :thumbsup:

You should really give the game a try, Maj! It is only sprite based, but one of the best Strategy Games EVER!

I just sent a PM to Majestic and an email to A2Files to submit the ship.

Regardless, It's a good model, and not like other models out there. So, I give it a 8.5/10.:thumbsup:

I began to rework the ship, delete some shading-errors and add some additional armor plating.

As of now the ship has around 5800 polygons.

Looking really good Intrepid.

Years back I did my own Terran Battlecruiser, maybe it's time I do my own remake.
