I'm back, with another ship.
Yeah....

The top one is normal mode, the bottom is in maintenance mode, where the fuel rods are extended so that they can be replaced.
It's currently unarmed.
Comments appreciated.

Clever use of glow effects on depthed sections. Kudos to you.

Is that a custom section used for the centerline glow? Either way it's quite nice.

Fuel rods need something to stand out more, maybe some doodads or glow on them to make them more important looking. A different glow, if you're going to use the latter.

Better than whatever you turned out before your tempban. Good usage of glow, nice colors, good shape. Good triggerwork too it seems.

Dunno if this counts as a HOLY SHIP, but it's definitely on the way there!

I'm not so sure about that, but the ship is definitely nice.

Perhaps a double beam sprite used as the exhaust for a thruster? I've gotten results that look like that.

I'm not sure about the heavy contrast of colors, makes some of the grey sections look like their floating somewhat. I like the design structure though. Make moar ships! Gotta make up for time lost

Moar liek one of danny's penetrator projectiles all aegii'd up. Nifty shit.

It's the contrail sprite used on Eri's KoBF.
Thanks for the comments, and I'll probably add a bunch of doodads next, so I'll be sure to make the fuel rods stand out.
