If this is fail then there is no such thing as win.

Well.

Yup. I really struggled with the two bigger ones. I don't know if other people can build this way but if I don't design everything out first I tend lose my way. "Open SM, spam on" just doesn't work for me.

Call it Aegiphilia.
This is me testing my custom filled/aegis sections.

A lot of your sections in there too dude.

jwa8402 wrote:Am I seeing correctly that you used transparent hull plates over the detailed/glowing innards?

Nope, you see incorrectly. It's much more simple to pull off, it's just a graduated fill section which happens to take aegising rather well.

Sponge wrote:My only nitpick is that the first two ships are very similar, but the third has a vastly different hull shape

Section test ships dude, that the colour scheme is the same is incidental. It's not meant to be a fleet.

TSA wrote:but like I said these are just test cases for the sections so they'll never be released. I've not bothered to arm, parent or design them properly, nor have I altered the base Hestia stats.

The other reason being that I still have to finalise the custom section naming and such so these ships won't work with the final section pack anyway.

I like that, from now on this thread will be known as The Collection of Fail.

Ha! I think the gent in question would be slightly put out by that suggestion. Besides, the style is completely different.

Lizzie wrote:...make some that are built to be armed; because I want to see some combat worthy versions of these.

Yes Ma'am, I'll get right on that.

~~~

Right then, I have my orders.

a) Create final sections
b) Organise final section pack naming and content
c) Build combat worthy ships using pack
d) Release pack
e) Release ships

Ok. I may be some time.

I'm really happy to see that you didn't run out of steam after making the Necrid. Simply amazing work - your ability to take really cheesy, acid color schemes and make them visually stunning is admirable.

a) Create final sections
b) Organise final section pack naming and content
d) Release pack

Yay If you could create such failness with these sprites then imagine the possibilities......Billions of holy ships of fail.

Expect them soon 'dies from anxiety'

All hail fail ship genius

FAIL IS THE NEW GOD, WIN IS THE NEW FAIL. Sorry, had to hop on the bandwagon.

But seriously, if you could give us these sprites that'd be wonderful. I want those effects, blast it!

Guys, it's very simple really. He has to post his failure ships because if he posted the ships that he considers to be of very high quality, our minds would be flayed as if God were present.

The third would look alien organic-ish if the Back (I think) was the front, but these put plenty on people here to shame. Congrats.

Failed? The second ship alone just put my entire fleet down, not that it's modern or anything, but I can't think of what to make with all these sections lying about...it just leaves me braindead.

TSA, I think you have a decent sig here if you want it.

Please, keep mentioning the irony of "fail" in your posts. It was still funny the seventh time.

Cycerin, I can't tell whether you're being sarcastic or not. *spends several hours thinking; head explodes from high blood pressure during hour 8*

This ship seriously fails, seriously, it fails.

What a failure we have here. One failing guy trying to build a magnificent ships, and in the end, he failed. Hah! Nobody can fail better than he does!

If everyone fails, the world will be a better shipmaking place

Epic fail man. epic fail. This fleet makes any custom sprite-made ships in this world fail to fail.
Are we talking about opposites or negativity?
