I agree with these... really fine parts... a must-get sprite pack...

i was looking at scorpion and thought it was small then when i looked at their differences with leviathan.. i got shocked...

well about the fighters...

umm... it looks a bit raw...

i don't know if i have the right to say this but..

try adding more small sprites to add details... and make trailing thrusters...

i make a small ships a lot.. but most of them are crap... and i've learned a lot from all the criticisms i got from my large ships...

Gnat update. Still have to work on Drone however, sadly, I have to go to a banquet.

Drone update. I think the "mini eye" turned out well.

hmm...a lot of lurking going on eh?
ah well, new ship with lots of glows and doodads (however...due to the fact that its not animated, many of the doodads did not show up for some reason)

It's too dark. Your glows are also slightly eye-burn. The structure of the ship isn't bad though.

interesting...the screenshots seem to make it a tad darker so i added a slight contrast between the reactors on the wings and the hull, as for the glows...i darkened them a bit. Whatchya think?

I like the shape and some of the section usage but it feels a bit jumbled and random in some places. I think it would look better withour the gaps, they kinda make it look like a pile of sections. I like the first few ships a lot.

well shadowbane, theres not much i can do to it if it is like that other than call it done and start a completely new ship.
....which i have...but my increasing love for this movie has driven me to make a fanship.
cookie goes to who can guess the name of the ship-thing and what movie its from.

note-if anybody tells me to "default zoom" i will slap them

oo! oo! oo! The gunship from avatar

! And yes it's probs obvious and i'm far too excited at guessing it but whatever. It gives me the urge to make all the things from the film and do the battle in BSF lol, even have the tree as a station lol

Gunsheep!

Too much stretching.

The cockpit is has merits.

yea...well to tell you the truth its not stretched at all (shrunk you see but i do get the point) the technical name is the scorpion. The cockpit was so freakin hard to make...and for the "tail" well there wasn't anything long enough
upon testing it it just glitched up so i deweaponed it

You could have tried making it out of normal sized-sprites, and zoomed out and whatnot....
