Here's the new version of the ship with touch-ups and weapon spots.  The engine spots are on the lower wings and tail, with 5 total.  I think I may have to try putting more light over it to make it stand out a bit more.

EDIT: Here is the latest version, with some more lighting added.  Prooobably the final version unless someone points out something to change my mind.  :)

And to comment on the Destroyer Thule just posted:
It looks grim and menacing.  Not a ship I'd like to meet in a dark alley.
The lack of color makes it appear very stark, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Maybe you should just do something creative with the super structure of your ship with the turrets and engines. Those wings for example.

OK, this is the 'final' design for it; a fast versatile destroyer with 3 small universal hardpoints and 4 small universal turrets.  Probably most effective as close support or point defense, though it could use anti-matter blasters at the front for an assault role.
Sorry to take up so many posts in the thread to get this ship together, but people keep making great suggestions each time I think I'm done.   :)

I like it myself. Just some real minor tweaks, like the gold saturation, and thats about it.

Sorry for the double post, but these two are done now, and I wouldn't mind some feedback ;)

Spoiler

The Harasser light frigate. It has a hidden medium missile mount, as well as a small ballistic hardpoint. Basically its a fast, shieldless harassment frigate.

Spoiler

This is the Korban experimental weapon destroyer. Basically an unstable prototype energy generator with wings.

looks good, i like the design.
needs some more shading though and you cannot (or isnt recommended to) hide a missle launcher.
the launcher will be hidden but the missles will still be visible through your ship.

Is this (this thread) only for Starsector related stuff?

I suppose 'non-sprite art allowed' could mean non-starsector. Keep in mind that people on this thread would (likely) be more adept at judging Starsector art. Just be sure to mention what it's for I suppose.

If by "good guys" you mean "elitist regime that suppresses colonial independence and thrives off of an overwhelmingly deep gap in wealth between social classes," then yes.

That is why I'm waiting for THE THREAD BOSS (TheHappyFace) to replay  ;D

The second ship appears not to have a firm edge on its wings.  That looks odd here, but it might look good against the dark background of space.
Maybe add a bit more shading on those wings; slightly darker dark areas might help the glow from the center and the blue lines stand out.

sorry this thread is in the modding section which is in the starsector section which means it is restricted to star sector only. :I
of course i would be happy to judge any non-starsector art but i guess you will then need to make a thread in the discussion section.

non-sprite art is all art related to star sector but not in sprite form, this can be faction emblems, portraits and such.

Judging by the amount of thrusters on that thing, i expect it to be some kind of ram-ship with some crazy burn drive system.

Still, this is maybe my favorite flying saucer ship from your mod Thule. Love all those tubes thingies.
