Codex-class supply barge for FFS faction (Project Ironclads).

@tartiflette

I love what you're doing with these custom weapon glows! However, you may need shaderlib to simulate the rest of the flash on the ship's hulls.

[xenoargh]

@Xalendi:  I love it; great integration with your style

@Tartiflette:  I think you'll hit a couple of technical issues with that, due to the blending method used, but it should look OK

@Okim; I love that design, the colors are really nicely muted, and it's got enough height differentiation to make the unidirectional lighting work pretty well   Great work  

Critique, if you want some:

Spoiler

This is all just minor stuff.

I would maybe try out is doing a little edge work on the smooth edges where you clipped the pixels, like on the back edge of the front section; it feels a bit unnatural there- the silhouette looks like it should break.  Probably looks good on black, but here on white it's too smooth.  

That, and maybe a bit of dirt / rust / scratches on the cargo pods, to make them look a little used, or even give them more colors, so that it looks more like a modern container ship, like the Atlas?

Its a military ship actually and its kept in good working condition all the time

[Piemanlives]

It really looks like a freighter though, one albeit heavily armed, does this have to do with their ability to travel long distances?

[Okim]

FFS use these ships as flagships for their small raiding parties. A well-armed fast and pretty good armoured ship that does not have a 'CIVILIAN' tag.

More frigates

Even more frigates

Kudos to everyone for churning out an endless supply of mighty fine space ships.

I wonder how many ships there'd be in-game if every piece of art would have been turned into a functional ship.
My estimate is that we'd be over a thousand.

No no, there would be over nine thousand.

Colour test

I was going for a gloss-black look. Didn't really work.

Multibeam turret- and hardpoint base, designed with the Sojourner in mind (same faction). A medium energy mining mount, designed to shatter asteroids into smaller pieces. Pretty effective short range weapon.

It is actually fairly similar in appearance to the Antediluvian Solon.

[Xalendi]

This beam looks interesting. Would it have spread or alternating barrels?

[Erick Doe]

Spread.  It will take some experimentation though, to see what works / looks best.

Mining / cargo tug that's deployed like a drone by the Sojourner. Sturdy - but only armed with a mining laser. Fits within the pronged opening in the Sojourner. Of course, the tug itself is smaller compared to the Sojourner, as it gets deployed (all drones and fighters get inflated in size after being deployed).
