I love the look of the races in this game.
 

You know, for really the first time, I must admit that I actually took the time time to look at, deeply look at, the races that Malfador made for this game. I am very impressed, as they all look great. I mean this. From the minors, wish we could have more of those in a game instead of a limit of 6, to the major races. They all look fantastic.

Hats off the designer, and to the person who rendered them. Sincerely, they are very well done, and look so sweet in game. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif

I agree

still to this day Phong and Sergetti are two of my favourite shipsets that have been made for the game.

Maybe the portraits could do some more work but the actual shipsets themselves are magnivicent.

Re: I love the look of the races in this game.
 

the more i look at the art, the more it grows on me. i thought it was simplistic at first, but now i like it alot. the eyes on most of the aliens tho, suck. the aliens themselves, are quite good.

I always thought the abiddion were a hammerhead looking thing, but after reading the race description and looking at the picture again, i see them entirely differently. its neat how many of the busts can be interperated in several ways.
