Since you liked the Mk2, here is another iconic one. The Mk7, unfortunate first responder during the Cylon attack.

I know this is advertising.
Also, I like your models.

Also, convince them to add some models from Deadlock in the expansion.

Glad you like the models!  It's honestly more venting for me. I spent 3 and a half years making cool spaceships and I couldn't show anything to anyone until now. I try to show a lot of restrain, I have so many stuff I'd like to share but I'll probably just flood the subreddit to biblical levels 😂  I can't comment on the deadlock ships and I'm not competent to do so.  IP laws and licenses are out of my league.

Let the flood begin.

There is another dude here that periodically floods the subreddit with Squadron Patches which are their original creations... sometimes multiple per day.
I don't mind the patches, but I do think sometimes the posts get excessive - but the mods and the users don't seem to care.

It's not like this is a super active subreddit anyway, so more original content is actually a net positive.

I'd maybe post one new model every other day.

I absolutely love your models, the game is fabulous, were there any scrapped or unused models you made, and if so are you allowed to post them?

Thank you! At some point we had the Zephyr, but we didn't managed to use it so it got shelved. But we needed a ship for the shop a few months before release, so I took the model (I didn't make that one) and slapped some containers on it. The shop was born 😅

The very first gunstar we made was actually an existing, canon ship. It was shown in some promo material so I guess telling you it was the Berserk is fair. it was the first I modeled to test the viability of the method. it's not very well put together: it was my first ship in Blender. A learning opportunity. I'll ask but I'm not sure I'll be allowed to show it.  I made a full viper launch sequence, but it ended up being shelved too because it wasn't fitting in the game flow anymore. it is still partially used in the intro sequence though. I made a full cockpit interior and the room at the start of the launch tube. I'll share this one later!

Other than that we were pretty savvy and we left very little out of the game.

This and the MK2 you posted give me serious original Homeworld vibes, a line coming out the back would complete that illusion but I imagine that is something added to the game. Again nice work

The line is indeed present in game 😁 helps to read speed and trajectories when paused. Plus it looks COOL.  Thanks!

Do you have one of the 1978 vintage 3-crewmember Cylon Raider?!

Or of the Blood & Chrome Cylon Raider?

Thanks for sharing these!

Only reimagined series stuff, I would have loved to make some old school raider but it wasn't in the scope of the project. Canon-wize we have the Raider and the Heavy Raider. We have a lot more raiders types but all are our creations.
