very cool, though I'm not sure it really conveys the smoothness of the design. I think for this type of ship you might be better off making it darker and using outlining to capture that smoothness. Still, very cool for the way it was done.

The color scheme nor the shape really scream Phoenix. I agree that the name's not very fitting, though. Name is changed now. Not bad. Very Anna. I like the new triangular thruster block. It's definitely influenced by his style. It would be foolish to not take cues from the top shipbuilders. At the ...

I love the light blue tachyons.

The only real complaint I might have is that the Garyaed might be a bit heavy on the missile launchers.

¯\(°_o)/¯ No, seriously, gatling guns and laser sights shouldn't really go together, I mean a laser sight is supposed to be "where the bullet goes", not "where the bullet doesn't go but the general area" Laser sights are the exclusive property of sniper rifles? I mean, it couldn...

alright, here's version 2. I added some to the back to break up the blockiness, and I redid the engines (I'm really happy with how they turned out this time. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y170/xphoenix87/BFscreen0119-1.jpg (just realized this picture doesn't have the thruster modules on it. They ...

I don't really like the ship's name. A phoenix should be nimble and gracious, not some bulky chunks strapped together. The name will probably change, depending on what I end up naming the entire fleet. I just had to call it something, and that was all that came to mind :P. I don't think it really n...

The Ascendancy

This is the first ship for the fleet I'm building to counter the Do'Rylus . It's really my first venture into ships that are more angular, less smooth and curvy. I'd love to hear any advice or criticism you guys have about the ship. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y170/xphoenix87/BFscreen0116-1.jpg...

I really like the headquarters. It's very simple, and that's not a bad thing. It does a good job conveying depth, and the shape is nice. The only qualm I might have is with the point beam placement, I think you might be able to find a better place for them since they look a bit strange where they cu...

The depth is wrong on the upper pulsar/flux combo. There's also a mirroring error with the aegis on the back.

Not a bad ship. The one thing I don't understand is why the core is so far forward. That's just a recipe for disaster.

Cool fleet with interesting shapes. The Chk'Natha's purple heavy colour scheme is better than the green-heavy colours of the other ships though.
You think so? I really kind of like the more subtle green. Well, to each his own :P. Glad you like the ships.

alright, because I'm a nice guy and, apparently, have nothing better to do, I'll take a look at all the ships. Here are my thoughts on the Hiss Nebula. Anata - Again, way too much section 21. The general shape of the ship isn't terrible, but because you insist on not combining those 21s with other p...

1) If you want comments and criticism, post pictures. Most people won't want to download 3 zip files worth of ships for each fleet just to give you criticism. 2) Show me something in the picture that makes me think there's any hope for the other ships, and then maybe I'll download them and take a lo...

Thought it might be a bit large. I've been messing with it tonight. Better?

I like that idea about bringing the railguns closer together. I'm not sure if it would actually look good, but I think it would certainly look better.

I was thinking you might be able to change the yellow sections back near the engines to blue. That and maybe the yellow slivers by the core. That might give a bit better blend of the two colors. Of course, that's just guesswork, without actually tinkering with it it's tough for me to see where blue ...
