I think your suggestion looks great. The CCP version is so unbalanced it's upsetting. I particularly like the swap of the wings port/starboard as the bulk is better balanced against the prongy bit (?).
I'd actually like to see it tried in the game engine with textures/lighting. In my view there's enough asymmetry in the prongs/wings to suit the design and I prefer the engines to be symmetrical.
Nice work |

Sorry, I don't like it. The biggest issue for me is that the wings should stay up. In the down position they look like an airplane, in the up position they have that "bird of prey gliding along an air current searching for something to swoop down on and impale on its talons" feel.
Having said that, the Golem's wings are too straight (i.e. too mechanical and not bird like/organic enough,) and the hammerhead has just got to go IMHO (i.e. Raven hulls are based on a bird, not a damn shark.)

This is great feedback! Thanks!
I wanted to see what the deisgn would look like if I played around a bit with the wings, I tried placing them lower, higher, further front and back, then when I tried rotating somehow it fit the design a bit better although it lost the"bird of prey" look. I agree with that point. |

I see little to no difference Save the Domi model! Spacewhales should be preserved. |

I understand where you're coming from but wings swapped does seem to balance better, even if the same way up. Any chance of a mock up? |

I took what he said and tried to come up with an alternate version

I'm starting to realize the thing I like least about the new Golem is the wings proportion compared to the body. The rest of the model is actually working well. |

That's your opinion I disagree
Great, can you elaborate. I want details. |

The "bird of prey" wings synergizes with the "hammerhead shark" to make for a rather menacing hull. Double Kudos! in fact.

First version, with the main engine in the back (looks like it's missing something). If you render it at some point, just for kicks do one in matte black. I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week. |

I think that CCP's new Golem model would look alright with something like the CNR/RNI skin. |

it wouldn't be called a raven, if it didn't look like a bird. |

I'm still gonna call mine the "ugly duckling", maybe even nickname it Donald just for ***** and giggles. BTW, last few pics looked great. Looks a lot better than the SiSi model (sorry, CCP. Just my personal opinion). |

This thread is so cute! A bad analogy is like a leaky screwdriver. |
