Looks very, very good, and unlike any of the other shipsets I remember seeing (which is most or all). I like it quite a bit.

I think it might be possible, but probably a lot of work, perhaps difficult, to tweak some of the images - some of the edges of brown objects seem to have white edges which end up a little bit pixelly. Some of the top-down tactical images might look even better if that could be achieved, but they already look very good. I think the race portrait might be interesting and less toy-like if the plain silver were textured.

Very nice ships. The strange way they are presented (by the lighting) makes them look rather cool. The light cruiser looks like an x-wing! The dreanought and the basehsip looks simply amazing as do the fighters and carriers. This one of your finest shipsets to date!

Gee, when you posted a preview in another thread the first thing that popped into my head was "Alkari"... now that guy sure doesn't look much like an Alkari! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif
edit: ok, c'mon, where's the download link? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Thank, but I made the race mainly for use with Fyrons Adamant mod. The mod has a lot to offer and I wanted to help out. I hope Fyron chooses to use this race, and he is more than welcome to use any of the other races I have made as well.

Doga has limitation, and unfortunely I do not know 3d Stuido Max. I wish I could learn it, become good at using it, but time and money i do not have.

Ed always thinks in terms of MOO2. The Alkari are an avian (reptilian) race that sort of look like pterodactyls.

Actually, the ships would probably fit the MOO1 Alkari better, since in MOO1, they looked like hawks, and had feathers http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Gotta love series continuity! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif Here's hoping the Phong don't end up looking like space chickens in SE5! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
