This is a pretty well done spacecraft, although I thought it was a fighter at first, which makes the result original in my eyes.

As you stated, it belongs to the Lombax race, which not only works well with their individual design as a species, but with how Insomniac designed the spacecraft in the games, which helps this to look like an asset from the game, which is a pretty big complement to your skill as a 3D artist. Naturally, this saps away some originality, but not enough to make it seem plagiarised.

The design appears to take design cues from not only the craft in the R&C games, but others as well; I can see some design cues from the old Colony Wars games in there, although this could just be some unwritten rules as to how to design a spacecraft.

In terms of presentation on canvas, I feel that this is professional quality, showing outlines and different angles. This of course will show the parts we can't see, which will add to the complexity of the model.

In terms of colour scheme, you have once again stuck very well to the Lombax palette, and the added glowing parts at just the right shade of yellow really make the highlights pop. The overall texture quality is impressive, showing the clean, factory-fresh look.

The render quality is also excellent, the lighting reflecting off of the material as one would expect. Overall, a very good effort on your part.

EA/BioWare will learn their lesson soon enough, I'm sure.

Thanks! That all means a lot. ^^

Cues were taken from a ship I found while browsing google images, it was from eve online. The engines are inspired from Mass effect's Normandy, and the rest from Ratchet and Clank style ships.

Yeah, it's a pretty good storyline, shame about what's happened with the third, though.

I see some influence by Mass Effect Normandy - especially on the front of the wings. Am I right?
