Sounds pretty cool.

And since Valvrave wasn't that long ago, I was thinking of this while reading your post.

It's also single piloted. :P

That looks pretty cool. The flight deck seems a bit long though, and the end of it doesn't mesh that well.

The engine seems rather long as well.



That better? I like it much more, actually. Added a small turret to the back as well. I thiiiink I'll have a hidden Large Energy under the thing at the front. Possibly a TPC. I like mixing tech...

@snizupgun: mech combat suits in space? In Starsector? Boo yah! I don't think anyone has done that yet. Really looking forward to that.

Any suggestions?

You should take a look at the God of fighter mod (http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=4252.0). It's very old and probably don't work anymore but i remember that the author managed to add an animated mech ship and it looked pretty cool. Making the head, arms and legs as animated weapons helped a lot making it feel like a mech rather than a static ship.

Vinya, better indeed, just some details that irked me.

Those two sections seems cobbled together like bricks. Adding some stuffs to cover those lines would help.

Nice little ship, Shellster. I like the shape of its 'nacelles'. Not entirely sure on the placement of its forward mount though. It looks a little squeezed in. Perhaps some detail / greeble between the bridge and the mount would make it look better (imo).

Thanks Erick, yeah I tend to make the mounts a bit cramped in my sprites haha, will try and fix that.

Some new sprites I've been working on, trying to make something that appears very clean i guess you could say haha. Had to use a black background cause it looks much better that way.

Shellster those are amazing kitbashes as usual, but the solid white seems a little odd. Some stripes and other color work combined with a little more shading would help in my opinion.

Sigh, I missed april 1 for a joke ship, so here, have an abomination that was spawned by copy and pasting on top of each other.

I claim Macross Missile Massacre on that demon.

This is called me throwing my missile swarm at you, and by swarm I mean massacre, and by missiles... I actually just mean missiles, there's actually not much to it really.

For that, I might have to replace the cruiser slapped on top to make room for the capacitor array to feed it all.  ::)

Those parts are pixel-for-pixel from the Apogee. There's not much else that I could put there that wouldn't over-clutter the poor thing.

Trying to add more paint to it, possibly some diagonals, but not having any luck. Anyone up for some Pimp my Sprite?


Just saw Jodorowsky's Dune and had such an amazing brain-break afterwards. If you like science fiction, see that movie.

Well, flash, since that ship is a combination of the Banshee and the Unsung and probably all the others as well, how about we call it the "Banshee's Song?

@snizupgun

That looks like a really cool ship, and it would be awesome in the game. Though you'd have to probably design and sprite equally monstrous super capital ships for the other factions for balance. It looks like it would take a large fleet just to take that thing out alone.
