Whoa. :shock:

Hey Seraph, how do you get all the time to do all this? Are you still in school or what? Because if you are...you are utilising your time in an EXTREMELY :D efficient manner.

My ships are mostly simple and clunky, not so...gigantic as yours. But still, I'll try to imitate your style. :?

When they blow up, things get slow ;)

But when they are moving about they look as good as seen here, which is to say, "amazing."

Sometimes, I envy you, sir. I just wished that my com didn't keep lagging at the most crucial periods of the missions, like that part where you have to fight the alien craft protecting the alien transport and NOT destroy the transport.

*jaw drops*

Absolutely marvellous, every single one of them. Yes, im gonna keep paying compliments to you, how can i not?

Avalon and Squall are something new, coming from you - and something tasty! You should continue building smaller ships, since theyre every single bit as good as your behemoths, yet one can actually play with them and they (probably...) don't take so much time.

Scythe: inspired by one of Armada Online ships, maybe?

Now excuse me while i pick up my jaw...

I love the mantis ships, but there's that stretched piece near vertical from the deflector array that ruins the look.
The Scythe is ok, but I hate the armor on the front for some reason.
Urm, the wings on the Quetzalcoatl are quite rectangular, doesn't really hold a spaceship look to me.
Unlimited Blade is excellent, that's about all the criticism I got for you.

Oh my god I love the Scythe! I never got to see that one in IRC, so it's a damn good thing you posted them up here. The Scythe makes me trip back to my 3rd-5th grade days and my Animorphs fandom -- It looks exactly like I'd always envisioned Visser Three's Blade ship to look like, though a bit smaller.

The Scythe is orgasmic.

Thanks for all the feedback, guys. :D Nice to know you guys like the stuff I'm making, even if you can't necessarily use it... since most of it is... well, huge. :lol: But not as huge as this!

The ship on the left is the Deus, which is about as long as the SM3 build area. Bottom ship is the Mantis. One on the right is my new WIP, and in the centre of it, if you look real hard, you'll see a teeny-tiny little Hestia. :lol:

My newest Work in Progress, once completed, will be larger than any ship ever made for BSF, to my knowledge. It's already as long as the SM3 build area, and actually WIDER than it. And it's about half finished. :twisted: As to how I'm doing that... well, I'll leave that for you guys to figure out.

Easy, you're group-moving sections outside of working area.

I love the new WIP, especially how you break with the lenght > width tradition.

Is the Hestia only there for scale or is it somehow integrated into the big ship.
If it is that would be the ultimate in how to upgrade a ship. (build a city around it)

I just hate the fact that I can never bring these giants into play because my machine suddenly drops to 5fps.

My greatest respect to your ability to keep track of parenting.
I just finished my first small ship and and was cussing for about 20 minutes).
Of course most of that was my own fault for forgetting about parenting when first placing segments.
Are those 10 sidepots just decoration or do you have something planned for them, because they remind me strongly of missile-batteries.

I want to have my titan fight yours but I get the feeling my computer would kill itself.

HOLY CRAP
I JUST NOTICED SOMETHING
The front of the new ship looks like a bird.
Kind of like some sort of giant metallic hawk diving down toward its prey.
Very intimidating, and very cool.
Did you do it on purpose?
