Archives for ships and fleets. 'nuff said. Most of the ships here are very very old and will not work in current versions of BSF or SM. You have been warned!

Not really. You just need to use the correct pieces and have a hell lot of patience. :P

Nice ships! The biggest two are my favourite, I think that the next ships you make (assuming you plan to make more) for this fleet should be more in that style then in the style of the smallest ones, but that's just my opinion.

Intercepted Terran Alliance Intelligence Message -

Admiral Bradley, a new alien fleet has appeared on the edge of the Western Colonization Zone. Long- range spectral analysis gear shows that the ship's hulls are made out of pure win.

Too much repetition and too many sections on such a small ship. I'm sure you can find some way to use larger sections to provide a similar effect. The overall shape is not bad though.

Your larger ships (Osprey and Eagle), on the other hand, are not only unique in their design, but quite well executed as well. I must see if I can pull off slender, curvy look on my own ships. I look forward to seeing the fleet rolling and ready to go. :)

Nice, but why did you change the colour scheme? If it was the glow you changed, I like it more with the glow then without.
