Huginn Battleship 2009by ~strangelet

Digital Art / 3-Dimensional Art / Vehicles / Futuristic

From the next release of our UT3 mod - AFF: PLANETSTORM. we have been upgrading our ship models to truly next-gen specs. we used the old Homeworld2 models for far too long.

This is the United League's main bruiser. the huginn is a vast fist o metal measuring some 1100m stem to stern. she wields 4x dual morgensen capital class railguns in addition to a generous torp mag feeding 5 main and 2 secondary launchers.

anti-fighter is covered with 3x vulcan canon on dorsal and ventral, and its forward spinal weapon is a triplet of ion lance focals running the length of the hull.

Huginn, altho older and slower than her younger sister, Muninn, can still perform wonders in a brute force engagement. with more armor per tonne than any other league vessel she can take a horrific amount of punishment, although without a careful captain she is prone to being disabled due to sub-strength shielding and prominent engine machinery.

Fortunately the massive old Novagare Stack-Three cores can be kept running by even the most inexperienced junior engineering team, giving the Huginn an excellent survival rate.

I love the design, it has a great solid, functional feel to it while retaining a high degree of aesthetic and creative quality. It looks particularly good with that well worn texturing. I also the appreciate the write up and metrics you have included with your post that is so often neglected.
