yeah, it's not even finished.... give me a bit, I accidentally hit post before it was ready.

[edit]: still not done XD just popped in to say that I'll post the whole thing plus images (bad ones) on a mod page. I WILL be looking for help if this is to become a fully fledged mod, though, as I can neither code, nor sprite

[edit the second]: finished! now to copy/paste that into a new topic and add EVEN MORE BACKGROUND… on second thought, maybe I'll do that tomorrow

You don't need to know how to sprite; get sprites from here to get going, there are, at this point, well over a hundred of them.  

No, "but all of them suck" is not an excuse (never mind that a lot of the really good spriters here have put some stuff there); if you don't know how to do it and you don't have the kind of free time it takes to get good at art and code... that's what that resource is for.

So all you need to learn, really, is how to code.  That isn't terrifically hard, if you're not trying to do anything very fancy, like build a TC.  You just need to make your ships with SSEd and learn how to make a new System based on Askonia.

Tried to make a "unique" custom version for the Onslaught, probably a Mercenary craft as i doubt the Hegemony would approve such eccentric vessel in its rank. Here's the Bumblebee!

Not just a paintjob, the hardpoints layout is different too, also some new parts were added.

[Gotcha!]

An Onslaught fit for a king!

nice work HELMUT BUT... as for me it got just to many mounts

[xenoargh]

I love it

More like a queen, since, you know, bumblebees.

Yes buuuut it only got two large mounts, with one of them as a hardpoint.  It also only got one more medium mount than the vanilla version (one less if we count the tpc) and 4 more small mounts. So yeah, a lot of little stings. Also i wanted it to be a missile oriented version, the kind that can swarm the screen with annihilators, a bit like this.

Da Boss iz gonna like dis!

[Shellster]

Another ship, this one has two large built in weapons at the front and a couple of hanger bays. It now just needs a bit of colour.

Whoa, not bad at all!! I like the colour scheme, and it's got a really unique design!

[HELMUT]

Pretty good Shellster, remind of Thule's Republic of Erk ships without the garish paintjob. As you said, it may need some colors but the sprite by itself is already impressive.

I continued my little series of unique ships, here's the "Road-Rage" and "The Beast".

I'm really liking these painted variants you've been making HELMUT. That pattern in the center of the Road-rage is gorgeous.

[Uomoz]

I'd love to have more of HELMUT stuff in my mod. Already added some ships (thanks to Meso).
