New Battle Cruiser series

Let's face it, the main attraction of BSF is building your own ships. Share them! If you need help, check the Shipmaker Info & Help forum a little ways down.

Rockboy, the main reason that ship is bad is because It's bright green, to change the colour of a section right click it, go to colour, select custom colour and select the colour you want.
as for the sprites, to me the look a little iffy but that's probably because of the green colour, still, it's good your finally using custom sprites!

Stock green is ugly by itself, both in the base pieces, and the infections, but also, there's poor contrast between the hull and the infections. It would be better if they were a little more distinct.

Perhaps you should get the basics down before you move on to things like infected parts and irregularities.

... You're mixing shaded, detailed sections with stock sections which are dark with bright outlines. And you're making everything stock green. What the hell? What the hell? That's just horrible.

Or you could, you know, make it out of the 200+ shiny sections that we already have?

Closer to 400.

Rockboy, are you for fucking real? Seriously? You can't be for real.

I think (hope) he meant making that out of sprites, not making sprites out of it.

Anna, was that your only concern, or did you see the similarity I did with your first shiny ships?

That was my only concern. The ship design is bland, and not really that much similar to my first major Shiny Section ships. I couldn't care less about that.

I just meant in general shape. I wouldn't compare your respective works in quality. Maybe I'm just seeing things again.

I see what you mean Kiltric, though its only because you mentioned it. Rockboy, look up Anna's Frank Exchange of Views, and Grey Area. Both are in his 'greatest hits' thread, and should give you some great ideas if your going to pursue that design. If nothing else, the general group of sprites to use. I wouldn't try to make raw sprites yet, as it takes some practice.

Yay, so I'm not completely crazy, the voices were just pulling my leg.

However, jwa, perhaps he should try to make sprites. Who knows? He may be an awful builder and an excellent sprite maker.
