That is one MASSIVE woodlouse, if those armor plates did not have that black hull around it, i sure could say that they are legs, would make the ship a whole lot more creepy.

BTW happyface, check your posts, i might have solved your convoy problem.

A ship that I made an error on but thought that it didn't look as bad as I thought,

biggest error was that i used a wrong layer, but it also made it have all the glowy under hull bits which I found was still rather aesthetically pleasing,
Basically a tentative sprite until I can go back and retry, missing turret points, some engines, but shape is probably final :D

If i made all my previous ships with this then I could leave it, but for now i gotta change it back to the older style :(

it shwould be so damn epic if you could make all those glowing lines glow even more when it shoots.  ;D

The ship looks a bit like its carrying a massive energy weapon with those holes for venting, although in this case its up side down  ;)

Looking epic FlashFrozen, and as theHappyFace said please make the lines glow more when it fires a beam or something, like in Star Trek when the phaser shoots... wait a second nerding out...now that would make my day.

For tri tach style, good! Although the rear end lets it down quite a bit - needs to be smooth, in order to fit in with tri tach ships. I'd also say to lighten up the gaps between the armour plates at the from and at the back.

@Gunnyfreak well the design is great. it just looks too plastic now.
it needs a lot of detail like plating, bolts, vents etc etc.
my compliments on the sahding btw  ;D

@Pelhamds
Maybe some more of that red. it gives it a more devined shape (dont know how to say it more clearly).

and sorry had too....

Wow...

At least he has a name which can be a ship name :P and damn it does look nice, and it is it a fire support or assault? As i can see a massive weakness in the back (no pd turrets)

sorry thats top secret for now,  ;)
but the weakness in the back is completly right. it even got a frontal shield which increases this weakness.
