@SpainardSlayer:

Solid improvement, I would try to add some more depth to the wings, other than that I think its a pretty good first ship.

 @Romeo Yeah, the 'orbish thing' is actually a transparent part, so there's a hole at the aft of the hull.

I forgot to save the ship blueprint sooooooooooo I'll probably remake it at some point.

Here's the other ship I was talking about..

Most of the weapons are hidden on this as well, there are 10 360 degree small missile turrets at the aft, on large universal on the aft right, two point defense stations on either side of the central body, and two medium universals at the front. (Also x-flares).

I would add more shading, right now it looks a bit flat, otherwise I think it looks pretty cool.

Third ship I've made. I experimented with using a glow effect with high contrast to do some minor shading. It's not pretty, so I don't think I'll try it again. I'll add markings later, when I can figure out what I should add. Ideas?

It's a fast-attack destroyer (three huge engines, no point defense). Three omni-mediums, two medium missiles(hidden).

EDIT: I'm going to re-do this and make it smaller, it's a bit larger than it was supposed to be.

Not at all, it's nice to have some feedback.

On a side note, on the main site for the game, the devs talk about how Starsector's combat was inspired by naval-style battle tactics and weapon configurations. I'm going to try taking this into context and make equivalents to attack helicopters, similar to the light missile frigate I posted a few pages back. Light frigates with fighter-level maneuverability and armor would be a nice balancing point, and the ones I've seen along that line are pretty nice.

EDIT:
Could someone post the .pngs for the various weapon mounts in the base game? Using hiddens a lot makes it feel like it's Flashtrek or something -_-

Flashbacks anyone?

Obviousely a very quick paintjob, but I wanted to show you what impact a little bit of value/depth has.

still gonna tweak the shape a bit since i am not content with that yet.
just wanted to know if anything is wrong with the spriting. flaws in the shading etc.
ow to make the sprite a little bit clearly:
from top to bottum:
- two medium mounts
- bridge on the sides/ flight deck in the middle
- cargo on the sides
- greenhouses on the sides/ factory in the middle
- solar panels on the sides/ crew housing in the middle
- fuel cells on the sides/ pipes in the middle
- two small mounts on the sides/ fuel engine in the middle
- 3 engines with 3 engines flames each./ plating on the sides
