Description Yes this is very much Homeworld inspired if you were wondering, since I love that game series to bits and always will.

Was doing some quick painting practice blocking in a random ship and then this was pretty much born from it. And in no time I had added in the battleship there and the crappy attempt at a nebula and this was the result.

I thought, this is good, it reminds me of Tarlos designs...
Then looked at the comments, and I saw Tarlos comment...

Sir, that is quite an achievement!

Also the Fighter look very Taiidan and the Battleship looks like a mix of Kushan and Vaygr, I would have loved to see this in a mod.

"Kharak is burning." and seeing how Kharak was when you return was and still is a bonechilling experience..

I remember when I first saw that trailer for Homeworld with Adagio For Strings played over it. In my lifetime, I have seldom cried at the thought of interstellar space flight - now it's a regular occurrence.

A beautiful image; the colour palette is outstanding, and I love the jetstreams. Wonderful work!

Oh and I must say, yours is quite simply one of the most eye catching and aesthetically pleasing avatar icons I've ever seen!

One of the most moving pieces of music of all time, and I can remember seeing a Homeworld trailer years ago set to the song - took my breath away. It's seldom that spaceship battles causes me to cry out of sheer beauty

I love the colouring of this piece, well done

I agree completely also one of the few classical pieces I really like.

I find it amusing that for me this game that doesn't even have characters as such was more engaging and had more feeling then most games these days where you follow a charcter and entire story around

Looked into it looks promising, like a sorta updated Freelancer, and they say they are planning to maybe add single player which is good, cause if it was multiplayer only Id just let it burn

Wow, even before I saw your comment PC, I was thinking Homeworld or Freespace!

Looking awesome. I really like the bright red colors of the ships.
