I really like it. It might look a bit too much like the ships it's "based" on, though.

...Then again I really, really like the way it looks so I'm not really sure. :)
 
I used parts from the Manta, Stingray, Squid, and Devil Ray...All in one...So I see what you mean....I'll get it into the Vision engine within the next couple of days
 
Yeah, as I said, this one looks pretty damned good, but you probably shouldn't make all the new ship that way. Coming up with a brand new Nephilim design should be easy enough.
 
I actually saw a bit of Stingray in it. Where did you put parts for a Squid?

Anyway, very nice. Another work of art.
 
I don't like it. The twin tail is too distinct to look like anything but the Devil Ray -- and none of the other Nephilim designs do this piecemeal stuff.

Also, shouldn't it be 'Thresher Shark'?

I really have to concur, it's just to....generic Nephilim, and none of their ships are really generic looking to another (except the Manta and the Devil Ray, which are seperated, as was pointed out, by the twin-tail).

It would be nice to see something completely differant, like a single tail manta with some squid fins bolted on.
 
I opted not really to change much but I have changed a few things textures on this one.....

Haha I was thinking the same....I have to revise the stats at some point today... I made it a little too fast...But the Armament is absolutely ludicrous ;)
 
Here's a Render (1600x1200) With the Newer "Thresher" , "Stingray" , And the old "Devil Ray" out on the prowl

that would be beautiful if it weren't for the planet in the background.. it needs a bit of rounding :p
 
It's supposed to be some sort of 3dFX explosion or whatever hahah but without the fallout ring...I'll do another one
 
It's kinda what you'd expect from...like..."Border Worlds" Nephilim. A bunch of ship parts messed into a new ship.
 
That's what happens when they form up to fire there plasma gun, Hey I didn't think of the idea the creators of Prophecy did ;) haha
 
OoOoO hahahah I'm sorry, Yea I used parts from other fighters...But...I was kind of thinking that the Nephilim Fighters almost look organic do they not?
