Ah, I was wondering where you went Anna.
The Decide 'Super'laser might just be a little... tiny... bit of an... understatement.

Knowing Anna, it probably is intentional, Ethril. It's either a byproduct of construction style (my ships start as small ships and grow. Look at the Myrmidon's construction pictures and you'll see the outlines of smaller ships in there) or it's intentionally lighter to represent a raised area of the hull.

I got bored between classes, hope you don't mind. <_<
It's a clone of part of the ship's center.

Wait, why are you posting that here?

Because it's basically his ship. All I did was select a part of it that I thought looked cool as a smaller ship, and put weapons on it.

His work in progress looks vaguely like the Egg Carrier :P

The Egg Carrier was badass, though.
I don't see a problem with this.

Nothing in particular. I'm just making shit up as I go.
All the ships I posted WIPs of are finished, but I need to head off somewhere, and don't have time to put up the downloads. I should be doing that when I get back in a few hours. In the meantime, here are some work in progress screenshots of something I'm making in the newest SM3 Beta.
There will be nine previously unreleased ships posted for download, when I return. Prepare thyselves!

Are those... doodads I spot?
Or is that just the nebula...

Not doodads, although I was planning on adding some.
Also, I'm sorry to say, but every ship I've released in... well, ages, really, no longer works. They were all made using previous SM3 Betas, and now, apparently, compatability with .shp files made with previous Betas has borked itself. All my High Guard-style ships crash the game. All the WIPs posted on the first page crash the game. Every ship I've made in well over a month no longer works.
I am, understandably, irritated to all fuck, and no longer see the point in posting the downloads. I'm not sure whether or not to continue work on my work in process, because I fail to see the point of it if it will no longer work in the next version of the game.

Damn, sorry to hear that, but to be honest, you brought it on yourself. th15 clearly stated there may be serious compatibility issues with ships made in SM3 betas.

No. He did not. Not until this most recent Beta did he say anything about .shp files made with SM3 Betas being incompatible with future versions of the game. He stated that .sb3 files would not be compatible between versions, but he never outright said the .shp files themselves made with the SM3 Beta would no longer work at a certain point in time.
Had he said so, I would not have put so much goddamn effort into making 1000 section ships that would be useless less than a month later.
