For heaven's sake, there's a ship gallery topic stickied up to put up ships, use that first before just going willy nilly and making a new topic!(can this be a real rule from now on?)

Anyway, the ship dooesn't look good with the gravbeams.

Don't be so hard on the new guy. Let him post his ship.

I like it. Simple shape, but pretty strong too with 4 Deflectors. That may be overpowered to stock ships, but what isn't these days?

Personally, I think a new topic for a single ship is kinda silly, but jeez, lay off the newbie. He doesn't know any better.
Well, now he does, but that's not the point.

I'd comment on the actual ship, but the color scheme is a little dark to see (try spawning a sun behind it), and you gave us neither a stat listing or a download link, or even any real details besides the name.
No offense, but you really should make it so we can actually know SOMETHING about the ship before making a topic.

Hafta agree with Ethril. Dark colour scheme = bad.

Also, I would suggest removing two of the deflectors. On that note, 2 gravbeams isn't really ridiculously powerful seeing as opportunities to use them are quite rare and it doesn't have that much actual firepower.

I must be missing something, i don't see him saying this topic is just for this single ship.

It doesn't say it's for multiple ships either.

It doesn't say "be an pessimistic prick and not comment on the ship."

Put a sun behind it. >.>

Don't worry, I've learned of that mistake and will fix it in future ships.

Speaking of which...

The S-11 rough draft(though the outermost plates appear to have turned dark)

The S-11 is intended to support other craft through Nano Matrices, Froschs, Impeders, and Rorschachs. However, it lacks any real weaponry other than flak guns and point lasers, and must rely on other ships to protect it. The stats are standard space platform.

Hello
If nobody minds, I'd like to post pictures of my first few ships here, too.

My first ship...And yes, it is backwards...And yes, it has numerous other flaws, like having all its weapons mounted on an unprotected beam on the ... back...

My most recent ship; unarmed right now.

Milgwyn: Either make a separate thread for your ships (providing that you plan on posting more than just these two) or post these in Custom Ships Gallery. Do not hijack threads.
