I see some pretty good section usage for one as new as you. Especially on that second one. However, you should think of using a different color scheme than blinding stock green. Also try to avoid having gaping holes in the middle of your ships. Other than that, I urge you to take a look at some of the older ships and see the greatness that can be achieved here. You may want to consider switching to newer sprites-as they can drastically improve the look of your ships.

I see tnx but how can I use the newer sprite sections and put new weapon sprites as well?

Erm, what part of using custom sprites are you having trouble with?
At a glance the second and third ship look pretty decent, but I would take the pointy bits off the front of the first one, and clean up the side pods as well.

the part of using high detailed pixel sections and weapon is that it gives me a continues error pop-up

EDIT:
and how to use a custom ship that has a multiple colors and that is originated on the BSF maker itself to the in-game via the costume game and stop giving me multiple errors?

hmm didn't totally catch that, though maybe someone else knows exactly what you mean. Could you post the error? One of the mods can usually pick out the problem from there.

Here's a new ship design that i made and sorry for not following the change color instruction and kept it in a blinding green color since I had problems with multicolor when testing the ship out in-game and gives me continues error.

this ship is called the Aegis Battle Cruiser. it's a very powerful ship and any ship design with detailed and shinning section and powerful weapon can stand out for it unless an Demo-ship armed with explosive impact with it. that it's only weakness a demo-ship armed with explosive.

Try to download it and see if you can show me any new upgrade and additional sections or weapons ^^

and as always, since I am still struggling to understand on how to make a dazzling, detailed, shinning ships.
pro's advice and suggestions are always welcome to me!!!
