yea i compared it to a tempest so its about right. i finished the outlining.. that's the easy part. the hard part is the colouring and especially the shading of the ship.
any tips on shading ships?

criticism is welcome. (do i need to change something?) too small for a frigate? i don't really know the ratio's of frigates. so if anyone knows that and want to tell me...

Hello everyone,
before i begin i want to tell you some things first.
i'm 16 y/o and live in holland so english is not my native language.
I'm still in school and i won't have a lot of spare time.
now... lets begin!
My name is Teun Holsbeek. 16 y/o and live in holland. i have bought the game a couple of days ago and am very interested in it. especially the modding scene. but i don't know anything about scripting, java, JSON etc. but really want to learn it and apply it in making mods. but I don't want to do it alone, i wanted to make it a kind of interactive experience, sharing knowledge about the game and its mods. so that everyone can learn it slowly and gradually. start with the basics like creating a map, mission, editing one weapon on a fighter and let them battle on a blank map. Posting the progress I make and (hopefully) get advice and help from the forum and other people. like i said i wanted to make it interactive so that other people can learn to. I will post all problems i run into, and maybe someone can show with a post how to solve it. maybe i can make like a youtube video trying to explain how i fixed things.
the things i know.
only the very basics of modding: editing mod_info files. using the *.ship/.variant editor online the basics of mission_list files icons, mission discriptions.
converting JSON files using the JSON validator, i know a bit about editing ships to ship.variants using the *.ship/.variant editor.
The Things I DONT know
:using JSON (i think there will be people shouting GO LOOK IT UP ON THE INTERNET! but i already did aswell with java its so much information and its very hard for me to learn in a short period of time). a large part of mission discriptor files, editing all the CSV files using excel. (there must be a quicker wayto add the ship data?) will be shown with a screenshot in a sec...
questions i have.
is this a good idea? or will most of you say **** it u dont know scripting language and dont come near it if you don't know it. or will you actually be helpfull creating this 'guide'.
if you think this is a good idea i have a question already:

Hello,
I'm fairly new to starfarer and its mod scene. tbh i dont know a lot about modding and how it precisely works.
your program is very easy to use and i figured a lot of it out in about 30mins. in that time i also made a ship (variant)?. do i need to save it as ship or as .variant. i have no idea. some extra information would help
but my question is how do i add this ship in to the game/play with it i have no idea how that part works.
