EDIT: Ships being reworked.

NON-FLEET:

Suggestions for starship and fleet names up!

The colors = Ugh..
Last pic is too fuzzy.

Shield use is a bit...wtf on the last ship, and why are the colors different from each ship?

Shape looks okay, but needs more work.

I suggest that all ships have similar colors, that actually makes them a FLEET.

Overal, it's not very horrible, but not good eighter, needs more work.

I suggest changing the horrible dark + light colors and use a nice scheme.

The colors on the cruiser are the worst.

I know your style yet with the last ships it looked good. These just don't fit together.
And the shields really ruin them. I would advise to go to the page of ErinErin.(knights of the baseline.) And look at the shield there; it is completly invisible until the deflectors start and give it a beautifull light blue colour. And I personally liked your old ships more because they all had similar shapes.

Overall just like Melvin say not bad but nog good either.

Thanks for the comments, guys.

Fixing it in a while, heh. I'll try to fix my coloring (for the last time!).
And, yes the shields, I didn't think they would look good myself, so I'll replace them with ablatives.

EDIT: Clear pic of the last PLUNGER with no shielding-

You could reduce the alpha of the shields and change the color of the ships.

The ships don't look similar you can't call them a fleet.

Hmm.

Section usage~ sorry, but it's horrible. You're using illogical sections for jobs they were never meant to fullfill, and it just looks messy. Less of the super-detailed sections, and please get rid of the 21's up front.

Colorwork~ It's a tad too dark. That, plus the contrast between yellow and dark blue is...painful. Make it lighter, or just choose a different color alltogether. I'll always recommend using different shades of gray plus a highlight color.

Armament~ Looks okay. Not too much, not too little.

General shape~ Sorry, but it just doesn't look like what a spaceship could look like, IMHO. The wings are far too fragile and they're just shpaed in an illogical way.

Of course, this is all just my personal opinion on the matter.

I'm going to +1 AD's statements, with a bit of extra commentary:

- The main wings actually aren't badly assembled for the most part, the placement of said sections just looks awkward and fragile, unfortunately.

- The ship would look endlessly better simply by making the hull primarily grey (with blue highlights), or stripping out the grey and using lighter blues.
