I came up with the idea for a light CSC a while back, a Commonwealth Light Carrier, or CLC if you will. Inspired by the Sepoy during the British Raj, I did an eastern version of it. I'm showing off a bit, but I'm pleased with how it turned out.

I also did a fighter to fly around it.

Cool carrier. What tool did you use?

The fighter looks somewhat crab-like, I don't know if the style fits, though. You may want to shrink them when you render for actual in-game use, otherwise it may be too large to be a fighter.

I hope you'll expand on the Sepoy theme and give these ships a backstory. It has good potential to make something interesting out of this.
Has resurfaced!

NICE. Mind if I use it with your permission? (I'll put you in the credits of course ;) )

I use Blender with Gimp for a little post-processing. Oh, and Photoscape to stitch the rotations together. The fighter is actually meant to be Centurion-sized and looks less crab-like (I hope) at lower resolutions. I just posted one of the raw .pngs

Did you use George's models for building those or did you do everything by scratch ?

:O That looks amazing! The fighter looks very drone like though, is it intended to be a super auton or robotic gunship?

if you have read about my up and coming mod, TCE, then you will know that I am "reqruiting" people to help. So I am requesting, simply, if I have permission to use this and any other ships you have/will make. I dont want to put any pressure on you, but the carier is absolutely amazing and I need ships.

When I finally release it, feel free to use it in your own mods. I compared it to the original model to make sure the proportions were the same, but everything (even the engines) are scratch built. The fighter looks a little weird right now because it's way to big compared to the carrier, but it's supposed to be like a Centurion.
