That would be cool, the texture would have to be very detailed and High Res

Zero, here is the pointed in version.

Yknow it would be more work but we could keep just the ring below the playing area and have the struts at the ship level and have them like the asteriods to make the ships navigate around them.
like i said, :( more work

I'd love to hear what the dev team has to say about this.

D4EKSTORM99 did you see the unfinished corvette?

He was basing it off the images provided earlier from the portal on earth

I know I'm the one who linked them.

It looks good, I wouldn't mind taking a stab at it sometime. I made some Forerunner tiles a while back but never used them. :P

That looks really good, but I think the pylons should be pointed inward a little more at a pivot point at their base, maybe. Like the Ark Portal on Earth. Other than that, fantastic job.

As far as the Onyx Sentinels go, I seem to envision them with a vaguely Monitor-esque central sphere. Not directly like a Monitor's though, but close since these sentinels had a higher grade intelligence than those found on the Halo rings or anywhere else it seems.

Maybe pull back the outershell around the eye a little bit and duplicate that smaller downward protrusion twice more, turning it into a triangular design around the eye. And remove the larger downward protrusion and make the rest of the exterior more symmetrical, possibly even fully sphereical. And remove the propulsion thingy from his back and round out that out.

Those are great ideas for the Oynx sentinals but keep in mind that there will be lots of them on screen at once so they shouldn't be to detailed on the model side. Just look at the new Longsword model, it's detailed but not as detailed as other ships because its a smaller craft.

Ah yes, scale, kinda slipped my mind there. Ah well, guess the majority of the detail is goind to have to be on the three cylindrical booms as far as the model goes. Maybe manipulate one of the tail fins of the standard sentinels into a suitable shape. Anyway, that's it for me on that.

So, I think it would be pretty cool if the structure was large enough that the grav well was inside of it. My thoughts on this: Halo as a series is known for attempting some jaw dropping scale. I think jumping into a wormhole grav well for the first time and realising it was inside of a forerunner structure would be pretty impressive.

This idea. Is absolutely amazing. Also is it possible to set up a neutral sentinel base that can be captured, similar to the neutral asteroids?

I think the Sentinal Factories from Halo 2 are the obvious choice.

That is what Uni is aiming for I think and that's what I like the most. You are a good concept artist D4RKSTORM99.

Forerunner/Didact but close enough. We should work together more, your concepts are very easy to understand.
