Looks nice. Very good, detailed drawing, I almost never see anyone do that nowadays, a very fine art.

[xenoargh]

Glad you like them, I'll maybe find time to put up a sequence of one of them as I go into shading and color

[xenoargh]

First stage:  fill, levels, shading.  Note that I'm just doing half the ship to save time, since it's going to be mirrored in the final version.

Color basics.  Now it's time for final detailing, then it's time to move to final sizes, blackline, etc.

The latest draft is giving me a fuzzy Star Control 2 feeling. Which is a good thing.   

[CrashToDesktop]

Hey, interesting. Although the engines could use some work, they just seem a bit odd in my eyes, unless that's how you want them to be.

[xenoargh]

Panel detailing, fuzz out the blacklines a bit (just take the color layer and copy, blur and adjust before shrinking to final size) and final detailing (rust/dirt, pixel greebles).



@The Soldier:  I think it'll be OK after the engines are on it

Looks really nice xeno ^^
just one thing.
you posted here long enough to know that i prefer the images within spoilers

Not a ship but a turret, i remade it because it just didn't fit on a high tech ship. not sure about the colors tho, tried to make sure its the same color as the hull on tri-tach ships

i dont know.
it seems the turret/hardpoint sprite is a bit unclear. (the barrels are perfect)
it just looks odd :/

[xenoargh]

ValkyriaL:  It really helps to clean up the fuzzies and blackline the guns and include some shading

dammit xenoargh, those ships look soo awesome. Can you please join the caelus modding team? We're desperately looking for a new artist who could do new ships for us.

I've finished a patrolboat.

A list of the ship classes and their WW2 equivalents:

Spoiler

Patrolboat: (Fighter)
This category is made up by patrolboats like fast attack boats, torpedo boats and missile boats.


Corvette: (Frigate)
Corvettes are small, dedicated, single-purpose frigates. Much bigger and better armed than patrolboats.


Frigate: (Frigate)
Frigates are small combat ships that often act as escorts for the larger vessels. They are considerably larger than corvettes and less specialized.


Destroyer: (Destroyer)
Also known as hunters; the destroyers are the in-between ships, filling the gap between frigates and cruisers. They are well-rounded combat ships.


Cruiser: (Cruiser)
Carriers and dedicated cruisers make up the cruiser classification of ships.

BLANK
Battleship: (Capital)
Large battlecruisers make up the battleship category.
