WIP: Homeworld ships

opinion on types

Hello!

Got some models of Homeworld, however am not sure which I should pick.







(Sorry for the lousy quality of the pictures, forgot to check before I uploaded them).
The black one is the ripped model from the actual game, the green is a slightly modified original (added polygons to make complete parts) and the pink is a approximation of the model with some modifications here and there.

What I'd like to get some opinion on is wether I should just modify the originals (like the green) or do groundup meshes based on the originals. Advantage of using originals would be to get the mod finished faster (got about 10 models I plan on making), however if I do them groundup they'd be mine.

Would appreciate opinions.

Example pic of the (pink) assault frigate ingame (textures are only placeholders though):

Personally I like the pink version better. It just seems like the lines flow better on that one. It would probably look even better if it also had the rods sticking out the front like the others.

H...H...Homeworld for GalCiv

Well, the pink version seems to be the best. (But can't remember how the HW1 Ships look like, haven't played it for a looong time, though)
