Nutter's little fleet.

[Squishy]

Verminator's conversion of the stock sections were a bit too dark, and the shade was all over the place. To alleviate the shading issue, starting swapping out for equivalent Kae-SWA sprites.

[Nutcase]

Trying but all the sections I've tried are either wrong shape, size or bumpy as southern Asia.

The best version:

It kind of lost it's shape though.

[Imaillusion]

The front section lacks detail when compared with the rest of the ship. The shading at the back is also a bit too dark, lighten it a bit. The shape is okay though

[LactoseTolerant]

The whole ship seems a bit flat, due to the smaller amount of sprites used (the middle is only 3 sections thick. 3 sections!). Perhaps that's just me, as I layer my ships excessively. I agree with Ima also, the front seems overly smooth from the gnr_sw sprites.

Penisbrick.

Seriously, you need to change that shape. It literally is a penisbrick with testes.

Or you're just perverted since it could also look like a missile or a dart.

image removed because i don't want to clog up someones thread with other peoples ships


but yeah changing the shape might be a better idea, i prefer the old version of it because it has more detail on it.

try remaking it with exactly the same sections just SW then build on that.

Wait...why is that a problem?

Also on the topic:

There's an unconscious need to project the penis into the affairs of others. It's called 'fucking with people'!

Lactose: The front is is supposed to be flat. It's where all the big guns go.

Hazel: Tried that. Last post on previous page.
The only SW stock sections I have available are from Verminator and they don't really fit the shape anymore...I think I' gonna try something. Be back in a few minutes.

[hazelwooder]

i prefer the one on the last page, just add some weapons on the front of it to give it some detail and it will look good.

[Nutcase]

Actually, it's a remake of a previous ship I made based off the Akula(NATO name Typhoon) class submarine. And as I said, I didn't really like the second one.
I also confirmed a valuable lesson today.
If you want something done the way you need it, do it yourself.

Sure they ain't as pretty as standard SWA sections. But they serve their purpose.
Now for the rockets!

Primary designing completed.


Test fight against an Andrasta:



The dance begins.

The escort frigate destroys most of the first few salvos. But it's own weaponry is much weaker than that of it's foe.

Andrasta breaks the Borealis' nose but gets her teeth smashed out in return.

And at the end, the dedicated battleship won the day.

Andrasta's core was destroyed by a point defence barrage fired moments after the picture was taken.

The point defence guns aren't that good against projectiles but work great for clearing debris and minefields.

Minor edits after the fight: Andrasta speed doubled, Trireme point defence weakened.

[Imaillusion]

For some reason the unarmed version of the ship reminds me of an aircraft carrier. Those stock section-22's are like a runway for aircraft, and the way that the ship is shaded makes the sentre sections look like some kind of hanger. The way the stock section-17 is placed also looks like a second launch pad for helicopters. All you need now are some landing lights, a control tower, and a big letter "H" in a circle on the section-17 and you're all set.

[Nutcase]

Something like this?

[Imaillusion]

Well, I always imagine that the guiding lights for airports are set far apart enough so that planes simply need to land in between them. I suppose what you did is fair enough then.

For the control tower, I'd see it being asymetrical on the ship (as in, placed on one side, not in the middle), but that's also just my opinion (wait, is that green dot the control tower? ).

Apart from that, the ship still looks okay, and that fighter plane is about the right size.

I figured I'll add some more later. But for now, that should do.

No control tower. It's all done with comm gear, radar and a bunch of fleshbags sitting behind computers deep inside the armoured shell.
The green dot is an airlock for all the stuff that can't land in the ship.

Slightly oversized, actually. The actual space fighters won't have wings.


ALSO:

[Imaillusion]

Those two ships are a bit "boxy" and they lack anything that sets them apart from other ships. Put a bit more detail into them, i.e. use more detailed sprites, different shapes, etc.
