Alchemy 2: Just Kill Everything

[kittenpillar100]

I'm dropping out, sorry but the shape is so weird, the ship i've made is disgusting.

[Icy]

I have the ship put together, I just need to get the glows, weapons, doodads, etc. working correctly. I'm away from my computer right now but I'll finish it tonight.

[Thunder]

I'm in for sure, entry's already in.

[STARSTRUCK]

That makes five completed entries.

Three days left guys, c'mon.

[vidboi]

i'm kinda working on something, is it alright to flip the drawing around the y axis?

[kittenpillar100]

Done! Massive change in size compared to what I was previously working on, possibly the smallest of all the entrants, but, it is done.

[Serithi]

What, have the sketch facing backwards? As long as it still has the same general shape i'd imagine it'd be fine. It ok Starstruck?

[Anna]

i'm kinda working on something, is it alright to flip the drawing around the y axis?

It is. I was curious about that, so I asked him.

[Icy]

It is... Finished...




Starstruck, my ship should be in your inbox (I'm leaving right now for Shaver Lake for the weekend, so I'll see the resulting firestorm next week).

Round 1 Results:
1. Forge of Righteousness (Anna)
Personal comments: Surprise! Coherent section usage throughout the entire ship. Great coloring. Hell of an armament. Flows like molten lead. GJ.

Spoiler!

DOWNLOAD.

Ship Title: Forge of Righteousness
Ship Class: "Victory's Ascension" class Light Attack Cruiser (LAC-3)
Length: 655 meters
Beam: 266 meters
Draft: 110 meters
Mass: Roughly 22,000,000 kilograms.
Crew Manifest: 320

Armament:
10x ELS (Electro-Magnetic Launch System) Missile Tubes loaded with OM-5 Standard Offensive Kinetic Kill Missiles.
8x 35Mw PDL turrets.
4x Anti-Proton Cannons
1x High Energy Spinal Positron Cannon

Propulsion Systems:
1x Gravitic Drive
1x "Cerberus"-type FTL Tunnel Drive

History:
Designed by the Rengaran Unification Front, the ship's armament is heavily based upon High Guard technology, in an attempt to equalise their military might. While the RUF has always had a numeric advantage, their ships have used primitive, outdated technology, and the Forge of Righteousness, the first ship of its class, was designed with the express purpose of battling High Guard ships on equal footing. While lacking as many Missile Tubes, and completely lacking the fighter compliment of a High Guard ship of equal size, it makes up for those disadvantages with a Spinal Positron Cannon and significantly thicker and chunkier armor, capable of withstanding much more punishment than a High Guard vessel. Due to the Rengaran's inferior energy generation technology, a large, exposed antimatter reactor sticks out of the ship's rear. While still heavily armored, the Rengaran's are legitimately concerned that such an obvious target might present a problem in conflicts with High Guard ships.

As of the moment, the Forge of Righteousness has yet to see the front lines, with plans to design supporting vessels before sending it into a combat situation. 20 more ships of this class are also planned to be built.

2. Assengai (Icy)
Personal comments: Pretty well sectioned, save for the wings, which are a little messy in places.

Spoiler!

Due to the ferocity of or hell-bent foes the Narwoiv, our two allied races have formed a permenant alliance. The first of many physical signs of this unity has just been publicly released today, the Assengai-Terran Battleship.

It is the combination of both races' technology and skill resulting in a powerful new addition to the Purple fleet. It boasts two mighty laser weapons from each race to tear apart the Narwoiv fleets. With Terran Assengai armour and an advanced propulsion system this new trophy of the Purple Alliance will be the symbol of our neverending support for each other.

3. Kittenpillar's ship (kittenpillar100)
Personal comments: Small, but has good section usage, whether by accident or not. Nice in general.

Spoiler!

here's the download:

And the picture is here:

4. Ravana (Doogie12)
Personal comments: Messy in a lot of spots. Sorta random. But okay color scheme.

Spoiler!

Ravana. Unarmed.

5. Thunder's ship (Thunder)
Personal comments: Somewhat haphazard, blocky, not very pleasing build here. Colors are too dark.

Spoiler!

Weapons are: 2 demeter launchers in the wing roots, just forward of them are the blasters. The 4 turrets on the main body are the side defence plasma launchers, and the big turret in the middle is the gattling shocklaser.

6. Ender's ship (Ender)
Personal comments: Messy all over, but less offensive than Serithi's ship by the sole virtue of being smaller.

Spoiler!

here is my entry hope you like

7. Serithi's ship (Serithi)
Personal comments: I think you should know why this is dead last.

Spoiler!

Ingame


In Shipmaker


I cannot be bothered coloring it right now .

PERSONAL ATTEMPT: Alraune (STARSTRUCK)

Spoiler!

A lot of >opinions here, I know. There were some hard choices. My rankings should not be taken as the word of God, but I do believe you'll find them agreeable.

Either way, that was an interesting run. I see a lot of diversity here even with the same ship shape. But not a lot of excellence, which I guess was to be expected. Few of you were expecting Anna's surprise entry, I suppose.

But GJ, you've shown that the lot of you can actually finish something.
Stay tuned for Round 2 tomorrow... it's going to be "interesting", to say the least.

[Anna]

Yaaaay. Sorry guys. Nice job Icy. Yours is pretty sweet.

Serithi, I'm... not really sure what to say.

[Serithi]

Yeah, on hindsight... no so much. I was trying to follow the sketch as accurately as possible, it never occured to me to put in any weapons or glows etc. X(. I blame it on spriting for 3012 .

I promise to do better in round 2.

[Anna]

Nevermind the lack of weapons and glows. That is not even half of what's wrong with it. The most immediate flaw is the fact that it's just random sections apparently tossed together without a care for internal structure or cohesion. Sure, you've got an outline, but internally the ship looks more or less like an incoherent jumble. It looks like it was made in a scrapyard. Except not by Tony Stark.

[Serithi]

That too. Like i said, i was trying to follow the sketch exactly, so... yeah, brain fart. Imma friggin delete it from my harddrive.

[Anna]

Hey, don't worry about it. These are things you learn from. Sorry for coming off like a dick.
