Strigiforme texture looks great, but top and bottom part of the cockpit should be transparent.

They are from the inside for visibility purposes (1 way textures). But I'm not so sure about making them transparent from the outside, IMO it has a less than desirable impact on the form of the cockpit, makes it look pretty flimsy.


Just a quick comparison of the difference it makes

Strigiforme stronk. Good job with insignia, you didn't fuck it up.

Ah, okay. I was just concerned with visibility. A semitransparent texture might look kind of cool though.

I'm afraid semi-transparancy isn't possible due to there being no alpha layer. Manus coded one a while ago, but it was buggy and never got implemented.

EDIT:
Of experimenting

Experiment was of success

I can finally make decent camoflage.

Considering I'm working on an up scaled Gau-8, that won't be an issue.

Your move Manus
That explains why that mech on the left looks so out of place. I thought that was just some crappy project you made on an off day.

I have an old design kind of like an upscale GAU-8. I think I called it the GAU-36 Paladin or something like that.
The middle one.

The ideas I had for Batiss texture, in case you missed it.
Everything is supposed to be darker, but I can't color. The two on the right are passable, I think, and something roughly based off of the parade colors might work.

Yep, I had the Gau-36 drawing saved. That's the one I was going to make.

As for the paint I'm trying the warpaint on the right. Just adding a few claw marks here and there. Oh and some runes as per your flag.

I'm more concerned about the Titans that are supposedly being built.
