Best Appearance Awards

the VL titan wins hands down. The way the vorastra glides through space like a giant manta ray is as beautiful as it is menacing.

For best cap id have to give it to the discord. Its curves are beautiful and like the vorastra its has a way of moving through space that's simply captivating 

The most beautiful titan is obviously the Eradica, the angel of death with ornate wings that brings destruction to the masses. Not only can it destroy entire fleets it does so with beauty bringing the power of death itself. I would say that purple is her best color =]

The cap ship that looks the best to me would have to be the rapture, so elegant and so mischievous she brings enlightenment to heathens

Gotta say Eradica, followed by the VL titan, followed by the Ragnarov.

Funny thing is though while the ship it's self is gorgeous, the real tiebreaker that makes Eradica #1 for me is the weapons system- most notably the "shoulder"-mounted beam banks.

I would agree with this entirely if not for the rear section of the Eradica which really lacks any kind of design present in the front. This makes it amazing from the front but not that interesting from the rear.

Also, last time I checked, there's still a texture bug on the Eradica's front side.

Eradica first, reasons have been said.. but to my mind it looks like the most detail was put into it. However the back is not so interesting.. take a look.. the engines are too small and it just looks unfinished from behind. But nevermind.

That same point can be said for the VL titan.. underneath is just grey...

Coronata second, i love this titan for the effects of the ring at the top.. 

Ragnarov lastly due to its awesome gun totting self. Nothing inspirational there, but on the other hand it's a certain show of power. I like it.

Caps... easy, Radiance, because it looks like a battleship. Progneitor... cus it just looks nice. For some reason i really like the Halcyon also.. Advent caps just look nice.

I've really grown to like the Discord Battleship. It looks sleek and menacing and non-human, whereas the Radiance still has typically human traits.

and it really looks awesome with a dark background =]

Yeah, you said not to post an entire list, but I didn't feel I could properly express my opinion of the Corsev otherwise...

I knew out of everyone, you were going to do that.

Screw it, lists are more interesting. I want to see what people think are the ugliest ones too.

My favorite titan is, hands down, the Eradica.  It definitely looks like an angel of death floating through the sky, smiting all the non-believers.

Favorite capital is probably the Marza.  I'm also partial to the Antorak, and the Advent design philosophy overall is much easier on the eyes than any other race, but I like how the Marza just gives the look that it ain't nothing to f*** with. 

LOL

I love the Kultorask.  What's wrong with me?

Best looking Titan: Ankylon with dark blue

Best looking Capital ships:

Radiance

Corsev

Best looking Starbase: Transcenia

I am sensing a great penis envy in the force, something about soase members lusting after phallic shaped objects but I digress don't let me spoil your fun. Seriously yall go right ahead with your treasure hunt!

The Kultorask looks like a giant evil insect.

I think you could say that about all the Vasari ships.

Added which race would win overall?

IMO that's creepier than little miss pageant.

edit: OK fine it's not creepier than little miss pageant, but still really weird.

Agreed regarding Vorastra. And i thought originally, it looks like oversized fighter, LOL. The design grew on me quite substantially since then.

When it comes to caps, i like Kortul and Vulkoras the most, then followed by Kol, Marza and Discord, in no particular order. Not really fan of Advent designs in general, thought the worst looking cap prize has to go surely to the new TEC capship, forgot the name, the one with boarding parties. I can see the reasons behind the design, and i believe it could look good as sketch, but it simply did not turn out that well ingame.

The Corsev is obviously the sexiest ship ever created. In fact, I'd argue that the Corsev is obviously the sexiest thing in these forums, and maybe the entire internet.

So at first lambasting ManUtd shade of red color and now saying Corsev is sexy? Heresy! You only reinforce my view of you as someone with no taste whatsoever
