I'm back, and with a (Hopefully) decent ship

Post by .Xrate. »

Hello everybody, in the past weeks i've been working on my ship design, here is my last and most proud work:


The Vengeance Frigate (Colouring are crapy, and maybe no shading but i'm still working on it.)

I think that ship's fairly decent shape-wise, but yes, it needs shading, bad. That shape's almost cliche when it comes to having been built by so many people, but, it's also tried and true and doesn't look horrible.

I quite like the green-and-grey scheme, but that's just me.
The shape for me is just a tad...round?
And it's a small thing, but the "Vengeance"?
For a frigate?
Just a little out of place.

There's nothing wrong with a round ship :?

What bugs me though is that those sections covering those turrets at the sides look out of place, they're kinda blocky. And what's more is that if those sections were removed, the resulting shape doen't look half bad, the front still looks a bit too large, but that's easily fixed. After that you just need to shade it better

your style is similar to crimson flames, he is a master of round ships check out his thread i think you will find it useful, I think this ship with cleaner internals and more depthing would look really nice, also loose the chunky squarish sections on the wings there nasty and ruining the shape. As always greebling is always required but that's a finishing touch.
