Rikkie's Ships
Well, I thought of making a thread of my ships.
Agiria Class Dreadnought

Sweet jesus that's a ship that's way too cluttered.
Listen, the goal of a ship isn't to make the largest, coolest shape possible. It's to figure out what parts go together well and use them accordingly.
You have a good outline of a ship. Now make the parts work together. I see way too many intersecting lines, odd angles, all on the inside of the ship. Keep the look of the outside, but I really think you need to do better on the inside work.
On the other hand, it's a good first ship. These new shaded parts really have done wonders for new shipbuilders.

It's not my fault I can't take your post seriously.
Ya I agree with 2500st...you should switch out some of those for their counterparts from the pack that doesn't have all that color, just to tone it down. Would also make it easier to tell where you need to improve teh section work since its hard to distinguish right now. i do like the shape though I would eliminate the centerline gap by adding something along the middle cuz thats sloppy mirroring.
Looking at it seems like you could easily make it assymetrical which would be awesome!

Try building smaller ships first with the DStech pieces. Once you have a suitable core piece, augment in different steps so you have a "fleet" based off the same core design. I've seen many people do that, and the results seldom disappoint.
If admirals hate and trash your ships,
If you can't get it right;
Then off you go, but don't call quits;
Just go make custom sprites.
