The most recent ship is actually pretty damn cool, which surprised me compared to the first ones you posted. (No offense, but there's no reason to have THAT many rails on one ship) I like the overall design a lot, just maybe smooth it out a bit. Gotta say I'm not a huge fan of the color scheme, but ...

Aight, I admit it... There may have been a few too many deflectors on that there ship. I'll think about cutting it down on the final product so as to balance it with the Nevermore better.

That's a ridiculous amount of deflectors. Damn right it's got a lot of deflectors! Honestly though, you can divide that number in half due to the ablative armor. The spiny nature of the ship also means that a lot of pieces are exposed, and thus more deflectors are needed. It's really not as many as...

... I always seem to end up double posting when I make updates... Ah well. From what fact can be discerned from the piles upon piles of lore on the Obsidian War, the Xi'Rei showed their true power in the form of three ships known collectively as the Red Death. From what little trustworthy evidence o...

UPDATE!

Well I found myself with a bit of free time today and decided to add a few ships to the fleet, so... THE BLACK ARROW: http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k112/Rudygizmo/BlackArrow.png Xi'Rei armada anti-ship missile. Large and very expensive to produce, but lethal against all but the very heaviest of ...

/facepalm No, really... When are you people going to learn?!?! POST A DAMN PICTURE OF YOUR SHIPS IF YOU WANT ANYONE TO LOOK AT THEM! Do that, and I'll gladly take a look... EDIT: Wait, nevermind, my internet just sucks. Wow, my bad. Well, it's certainly big... and has a lot of aegis. I'm not sure I ...

Eh, I'm not much of a ship namer, but usually think of the ship's general purpose, and find a suitably epic name that reflects that. Examples: All by battleships in the Iryian fleet are named after the 7 deadly sins. So I got a Wrath battleship with excessive firepower, but lower defence, a Gluttony...

Thats a sweet, sweet fleet. I love them, all of them, theyre perfect. Not a single nitpick. Will there be more to come? Please? :) Why thank you. And yes, there will hopefully be much more to come. As of yet, the Nevermore is only a rather heavy battleship, the flagship's going to be... well... rat...

I've played through the demo a few times, and I gotta say it's one of the better shmups I've played. Add more enemy variety and more levels and you have yourself a kick ass game.

I love the street fighter style combo system too, really unique.

How did you do the glowing effect? It's a technique that I kinda ripped off from Anna. What you do is ya build a ship in the standard color, (In my case a dark brownish gray.) and then outline all the outer sections with a contrasting bright color. (In my case teal.) I've also got my ship glow set ...

Check the first post, this is now the Xi'Rei Armada thread, and I redid the whole first post with organization and backstory. (Yes, I even made a little demeter carrier for Lizzie.)

Oh, and in my humble opinion, this style is definately worth escalating into a fleet. Even if the ships in said fleet will be huge. Your wish is my command. Though it's far from a finished fleet, I decided to make some of the smaller ships, namely a fighter, a frigate, and a close-range brawler typ...

Aight, I made it a bit more streamlined and cleaned up the back a bit. I'd say she's done now. Maybe I'll make more like this. 'Fact, I think I will, whenever I decide to get off my ass and crank out a fleet. Could be cool. http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k112/Rudygizmo/NevermoreParenting2.png htt...

It looks REALLY cool til you get to the back... wher it kinda... just... ends... Maybe put some more detail on the back? I'd like to see it point or curve around like a water drop, you know what I mean? Other wise it's really cool looking... Doubt it can take the Armored Fist though, buddeh. Kiddin...
