Piranha ship from the back. This is a test comp that showcases how the space scenes for Armies of the Fallen will look... Follow us on Facebook pls! [link]
Definitely, the Halo series was one of the inspirations. Some people may have problem with this, but we dont really stick to Star Wars canon with Armies of the Fallen...
I think people may have a problem with this because it's blatantly obvious that your inspiration came from Halo and people want original star wars based stuff
This is actually the first time someone mentions Halo, so I guess it's just a back of the ship. Also, the design of the original ships wouldn't really stick with the story of AotF, here the ships are more utilitarian and crude. So these are the reasons I went for this sort of design...
I think that it particularly looks like the Autumn in this picture because of the angle shown - it's pretty much exactly the same as the opening of Halo...which is the scene everyone thinks of when they think of the Autumn.
this definitely made me think of the Pillar of Autumn.
it's that hexagon/octagon-like shape along with the twin engines in the back
doesn't strike me as very star-warsy

people are quite hard to please
perhaps a front view of the ship would help?
