And if i'm correct, i had forgotten the ambient for the top lights? I like the picture of it next to the liati! Well done!!!

[quote who="TobiWahn_Kenobi" reply="2365" id="2913576"] Love it! I like the lights on the front, lights always give a more finished and dynamic look. Also I like the violet you chose. I lve almost everything about the texture (the model is perfect), just one little nitpick (and that just a matter of taste) I'm not sure I like the stripes on the winglets, they make it look so '70 retro style (reminds me of window blinds), but as I said, that is just personal preference. Than
Here's what i've done to the Centurion. I made it a little more violet than the liati and vorchan, mostly because the miniature i based it on was that way and because, as i said, i like the rag tag look and the fact that the fleet isn't entirely made of that same colored mass. (And besides the centauri shuttle is also more violet) [e digicons]|-)[/e] I added some details again, because the miniature lacked them badly. I hope you like them. The lights on the front can be e

Here's an update: The guns are not so welded as in the miniature. Tell me your opinion.
By the way, what is the triangle limit for the Centurion? And is the Balvarin really going to be a frigate? It seems strange to me.. [e digicons]:|[/e]

Here's what i made yesterday. Fortunately i have a perfect top picture and quite good front and side pics so it should be pretty accurate.

If no-one is working on the centurion at the moment, i could give it a shot? A lot of reference pictures of it and pretty easy to do i think.
