I was talking about patterns earlier and I played around a little ...

Well, basic painting done.  Next up is scaling it down to the final size, clean up and detailing.

... I totally forgot to capture the intermediate stages as I was working again, derp.  Guess no tutorial again.

Seems pretty colorful, hehe.

[MesoTroniK]

So initially during my factions creation it was decided that only the capital ships would have this texture on them. The visual inspiration for the bio-mechanical ships was based on this

But recently it was decided to attempt to apply that texture to all others vessels before adding any new ones. But certainly more ships are planned, logistics ones are needed along with more crazy combat vessels.

I am pretty sure this looks better, what could possibly go wrong?

You boil it and the colour changes.

[MesoTroniK]

Heh, you are funny but you may be on to something there.

Those "pirated" Exigency ships that are some crazy combination of dead bio-mechanical ship debris, asteroids, and low tech ship parts that will tie into the storyline were not always the sub faction I had planned. Back in the day I imagined some kind of engineered virus that infected Exigency ships that changed them somehow, but it was thrown out as a bit too silly...

[Bjørn_in_the_Sector]

hmmm. Maye it was a semi-mechanical virus that overloaded the reactors in the infected ships, and roasted the crew and the ship to death, like a sort of malaria. Then it turned the outside red, and took over the husk as a rogue AI. How's that for a backstory?

Hello, i am new here, but i made a sprite with Battleships Forever.

I know there is nothing special, but can someone point out anything weird and strange?
Thank You.

[Tecrys]

OK, I've done another ship and coloured it right away.
Got 2 versions: One with a bit more vivid colours and one wish kinda washed colours.

It needs some nifty detailing, I think, but please give me some feedback on colour scheme and lighting.
Anything helps, thanks!

Icarus-class frigate for TuP

[Bjørn_in_the_Sector]

@Lcu: it looks really good! a nice little frigate! You may want to sharpen up the details inside the boundaries of the ship, and maybe round off the corners where the rear turrets are, just to match. Otherwise, a good start!

[Grug]

Careful, Icarus ...

[Sabaton]

@Tecrys:
The one on the left doesn't look like it would survive the vacuum of space, that being said all that exposed flesh looks like it would roast well under laser fire. Why not try other colors than the stereotypical ones? Space beasts could be made out of all kinds of exotic tissues, and most likely have their soft bits well plated.
 And I still think the coloring it's too complicated for a game like this, they have more colors and shades than many factions out there.

Wow!
I really like 'em! Cool Idea for some more civilian ships, maybe a few more black and yellow stripes would be nice and some rust, dents or rough areas where shiny metal comes out between the colour.

I revisited my paint job and added some eyes. I'm pretty happy with this one now.
I'm thinking on how to add some more details but I can't really think of stuff to put onto it.
Any ideas are welcome.
