I've never used SW-sections before, this is the first ship i have made using them. What do you think?
Criticism would be nice.
Something new for me.

Sections: It looks like you threw them down almost entirely at random to me.
Colouring: Ew. Don't use such a bright yellow, seriously. It's just one blurry yellow mass to me. You should work in darker shades at the very least for depth and such.
Glow: Same problem as the colouring, and a little hint; never use a flat-colour glow. You can make them look MUCH nicer using layered effects, same as with recolouring beams, for example;
The flat green beam is, let's face it, rather ugly. The upper beam, which uses a white beamer as the 'core', looks much nicer, no?

This. (replace yellow with cyan) Quoted because it's still true.Arcalane wrote:Sections: It looks like you threw them down almost entirely at random to me.

And by darker shades it doesn't mean just dark grey.
You want to lower saturation, and have a range of brightnessess.
