I'm curious what you all like about the Lion's looks? It seems a bit like a high tech, umm.. doorstop or something to my eyes. Not putting down anyone's taste or anything.. just curious what appeals to others. What's to like? If the weapons where layed out to take advantage of the sloping front more it might make sense.

As for the Astarte, well it doesn't really look like a ship at all to me. And the texturing is a bit weak. Simple repeating tech patterns with little in the way of realistic details. I mean.. it's just patterns - maybe pulled out of some royalty free "tech" texture pack they licensed. The Lion at least seems to have a purpose built texture and looks cohesive.

I'm not sure I really like any of the motherships, but I don't mind the Mastiff if the turrets where better placed. I'm still waiting to see what the Alex line ship looks like. The Star Wolf is ok but dated.

Well I simply looks cool. Compared to Star Wolf or other MS (even in comparison to Manticore the Lion wins ). And its thin profile means it does not get stucked at docking/undocking.

The Lion is probably the first mothership we get in the Star Wolf series that actually looks something resembling a battleship, with the Star Wolf (and its many children) and Mastiff being just upgraded transports, and the Manticore (the Alex ship line mothership) looks too alien for my tastes. The Astarte I have absolutly no opinion of appearance-wise, it just looks too average and plain to say anything about.

The Lion Prototype you get initially looks kind of off-balance and odd, but I really like the color scheme of it (A lot better than the generic green + MSF logo of the Lion MK2).

The Lion MK2 looks a lot better modelling-wise. It looks like a nice, balanced ship, although it could use more turrets.

I like the Star Wolf. It looks like a mothership meant to spit out fighters.

Just wish it was a little more beefy.
