[WiP] Borealis
 

Everyone who's ever played Half Life 2: Episode 2 knows this ship. I've been working on recreating it. Although its still a heavy WiP, I thought I'd post a screen of it here.

Here's a blueprint.

And here's my WiP.

And here's what it should eventually become.

Let me know what you guys think!

Is this a military vessel or is it a merchant?

I can not wait!!

Just a small update.

And it'll be a merchant vessel. This thing was a research ship and had no weapons on it.

And if you have finished it, please start making an Aurora Borealis for Uboat Missions :D

And here she finally is, all completed.

Looks good are you going to release it?

Will it be playable?

Karle94 has been gracious enough to look into getting it ingame. I myself know absolutely nothing about scripting or how to import it but if he's okay with it, I'll definatly release it.

Seeing as its a icebreaker/science vessel I don't think it should be playable. (It also has no weapons) But I think I'll be fun to blow up anyway.

It would work as an excellent easter egg, the excuse for such an modern research vessel from the future to appear in the past would be because of the experiments with the portal technology (perhaps momentarily being lingshotted several years to the past after the initial teleporting test, which along with the ship, took half of the drydocks with it)

Looking forward for this

I was thinking of how cool it would be as a resupply base...:hmmm:
