  • Objects in this category have been deemed sufficiently finished to be put in-game, but are still noticeably wanting for touchups, and other secondary attentions.
  • The following models have art associated with them in the masters repository, but are either incomplete, or not yet in VS format. Those wishing to contribute would be well served by helping these models over the final hurdles. Do not be over-concerned with final armament and statistics for the models at this stage, although engine lights, armament locations, and turrets should be placed at this stage, if possible. Sanity checking of model, if not already in VS format, is a must. Examination of models in-engine at full scale (for texture viability, etc.) is desired before the model should leave this section.
