My ship

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.

( o. O)/ Hai! Welcome to the forums.

Well, With stock parts it is hard to get into detail, but I see some depth in this ship. Counting with what spirites this ship has been built on, I would say it is rather good. Especially for your first post. Once you have experimented enough with stocks, I suggest testing custom spirites made by forum members. Thats where the real fun and epicness starts.

Tnx for the good comment, and I am already doing some shinnies section sprites but I can't extend the skeleton for my ship I need some more deeper depth explanation for how to make a good shinny ship in BSF cause I'm just stuck with my core of the skeletal of my ship >.>

Hi, nice to see new members endevouring into the art of ship building!
I see your ship has some good section work depth wise but i must say, try not to use super-saturated colours too much. Try to dim them down.

Ignore him. Saturated colors are fine with retro-styled sections. I would, however, work on sectionwork. Unfortunately, the only way to do this is practice, practice, and practice. Looking around to see what some of us have done is a good idea. If you're into retro sections, look back in the ship archives to see some cool stuff. I look forward to your future ventures.

Your first ship's colour scheme was good I was merely warning you of using highly saturated colour's on ships such as your recent 'design'.
The almost neon blue just does not fit on those sprites :P

You can change the sidebars colour's by right clicking them and choosing the one you want.

Shut the fuck up Cryo, you can't complain about the forum being dead then have a pop at its newest member's efforts.

The ship is cluttered up with a load of sprites that don't mesh well together. The colours don't blend too well together, try desaturating them and using more shades of the colours to illustrate depth. Have a look around the forum, nick a few ideas/techniques from more experienced builders (Doogie, Calvin, SS and Anna, most notably) and see if that affects your building. Other than that, carry on doing what you're doing and you'll be good in no time.
Not enough Delta in your life? Have a look at https://twitter.com/Deltabacon1 - I do a fair amount of casting and esports analysis which may appeal to some of you who are that way inclined!

pls, don't fight. it is true that the forum is almost dead like site because there aren't much active people here >.> unless someone that is popular in youtube had made a video of the game and the forum it will be more active than dead.

and thank you for your advice ^^

I have to admit i was wrong Delta and i was stressed due to family issues but now it's fixed and i was also dumped with a lot of misfortunes like getting into a fight but in the end we were both laughing at what we did anyway so i guess this is a sorry note.

Your pretty good with shape and color when it comes to smaller ships :D and yes like delta said take a look at the other vet's ships like Doogie's Seven Sins which is one of my favorites and the GGG Industries also which is Anna's Stickied topic and i'll show you one of my newer ships
