Description


One of the most decorated special forces squadrons in the Terran Protectorate Stellar Navy is the Black Angels Fighter Group. Assigned to the small but battle-tested Task Force 20, the Black Angels carry out surgical strike missions against key enemy assets behind enemy lines. They operate for months at a time without resupply or support. Only double aces (10 kills or more) are allowed into the squadron, which is headquarted out of the Seraphim, an Archer-Class escort carrier which served with distinction in the previous war. I did this piece primarily because I'm learning the ins and outs of lighting space scenes in Carrara, which is trickier than you'd think. So the more feedback on this one the better. Oh, I should note that I generally don't put running lights on military ships, nor do I think they'd have lots of windows. My sci-fi universe tends to be a bit utilitarian and hard-edged, with ships more like submarines in space, as opposed to the luxurious ships in star trek and the like. All models created by me in DOGA-L3. Enjoy, and let me know what you think. Best viewed at full size.

Nice modeling and I share your notion about spaceships being more like submarines, but I also really enjoy that background. Wonderful render!

I like your no nonsense military approach, while the ships of starfleet in star trek are lovely to view they were never meant to be warships. yours are hard edged and whipshar. I love the work. let's see some more!

I agree with CorwinGreylore! Great war starships! The lightning is very good I like the background and the blue light the "hangar" of the front ship! BRAVO!
