Well what am I supposed to do with these missile dread, torp dread, minelayer dread, and gaifen hunter dread I just designed? Come on Azreal!
Yeah, replacements are great. Don't limit yourself to big heavy hitters.
Also you're right - too many polys for anything but a dread.

Those pods on the side dont look very luth, or rather, they look out of place on that model. Theyre too smooth and the "raindrop" shape doesnt match.

Sneaks of another K'luth dread work in progress. Just another idea I had for sometime.
Dubbed the Kraken

Like this.....
- Redone entire main hull and the wing pods to reduce poly counts
- Reduced a lot of unnecessary beveling and small polygons
A couple of edge face view to see the extrusions, tapering and stuff used to turn spheres and cylinders into the ship.

LOL. That's the idea. Still refining it though.
So feedback, especially from K'luth players, would be welcome.
I've got one that looks like a mutant squid, and another that resembles a radioactive crab. Let's see how it pans out.

lol I wish. But no, the 1st dread isn't Shadow inspired. It's inspired more from ST Nemesis' Scimitar and FS2's SJ Sathanas, n mixed in with current Kluth designs.

How about this?
Biplane design with "hollow" center (Sort of like a Romulan D'deridex)
K'Luth cruiser concept - Let's call it "Carapace"
Edge face views

So ... here's the total line up so far:
1) The original K'luth Dread concept, now with poly count reduced.
Call it the "Pincer"
2) Another K'luth Dread concept
Call it "Kraken"
3) K'luth Cruiser concept
Call it "Carapace"

You know, with a bit of tweaking the Kraken could make a good Gaifen's cousin.
More space monsters!
