Greetings!

As many of you already know, I have been slowly developing my own dio-story. In my Joeverse, COBRA has an active R&D group, and they have their own secret base located in the arctic or antarctic. So I've recently made what could be the base, but I really need everyone's opinion on it. Is it too large? Does it have a Cobra feel?

It's a bit too Scifi-esque, to be frank.

Try to make the complex a bit more grounded in reality.

agreed... it's a little too "bubbly" for Cobra. I would flatten it out and spread it out a tad. Otherwise its a really good job.

I think it looks cool, it all depends on what feel you are going for.

Okay, so I'll probably use this design for something else.

What I am shooting for is something that is appropriate for an acrtic surrounding. Was thinking something low. Started with something angular. I think I'll play around with a few structures I have saved up and see what comes out. Will probably take me a week or two to post something new.

I like it the way it is.

For R&D that is perfect! Cobra is errogant and extravigant and I can see them building this!

I wish I still had my 3D programs (and skills) that looks sweet!

Hrm. I really am thinking that I should pause before continuing and really think about my Joeverse. I am really into the COBRA R&D setting.. have scientists, computer techs, etc, even a base commander.. all geared towards research. Dio story geared towards that too. But before I spend more time rendering a more detailed R&D base, or redesigning one, I really need to examine what style best reflects my own thoughts towards a COBRA research branch.

It looks very much like a Cobra base from the cartoon... if it was underwater, even more so!

After looking at it some more I think all that is lacking is a bigger cobra insignia. Cobra was never timid when it came to advertising their presence!

I think it looks great!

R&D would probably have something high tech like that.

I agree that Cobra does do things on the grand scale. Yet this base is to be a secret base. The finished render will probably have icebergs near with this base embedded between or within. Probably an iceshelf in the background. I could make this base semi-submerged... night scenes would be impressive.

But anyway, according to the dio, this will be a super secret Cobra R&D location.

I'm going to scale it down and see how that looks.

if youre going for super secret, I think it would be underground or underwater.
