That's a shame seiji, I hope it's not too expensive or difficult. I'll make the ship sometime tomorrow since I'm about to go to bed.

Edit: Derp just realized you never posted up your ship wakerz so unless I work of jwa's I have nothing to work off of. I can only assume you pmd it to seiji but it's probably a good idea to post it up here as well in future.

being a true soldier isn't about bravery or courage, it's about being in mortal terror constantly but fighting on regardless for your country and cause. Only in death does duty end.

Thank you wakerz. So you know, we don't really need the shp, it's just extra time on your part to upload.

Anyway, two possible new versions. The first version looks a bit more interesting but I fear it's cut off too much expansion and too strongly set the design direction for the ship (i.e. little winglets everywhere). So I made the second version which leaves things a lot more open.
Also, a couple things to note, in place of real shading I used section overs to create brighter whites on a few places, just so it looked less bloody cluttered. Those'll probably need to be removed when it's actually coloured. Also, can we cut down on the mecha-sw sections a bit? They make everything so messy when used as space filler and I've found myself forced to prune some of them both times now (though far fewer this time around of course).

So, the ship(s). Take your pick LT:

Hmm, thinking Shiny definitely would have been a better choice, and its still an option to restart with if this doesn't go well, but I'd say the second one.

It saddens me to say this but under the two day limit Lactose Tolerant's turn is up. If we follow the three day limit, he has about 8 more hours to show up and build these. I'd suggest doing the latter, since he's a good ship builder.

Nothing? That sucks... Doogie you want to go ahead and take your turn and if LT shows up we can fit him in at that point?

As I recall tetrarch didn't show last time. It's also been two days so I think you can go now kittenpillar.

Bad Boy is correct. I'll pm kittenpillar to be sure he knows.

So random question guys. Who wants to drop this one and restart with shiny sprites? It doesn't seem like people are enjoying it that much and theres alot of problems with sprite selection..Of course appropriate packs like horsemonsters and dst would be allowed too. Yes/no?

Just a suggestion, we could have this one running in the background, where anyone who wants to contribute to it can do so at any time (perhaps a time separator between any single person's additions so they don't build the whole ship) but we'll focus on a shiny one. That might turn out too complicated though.
Anyway, I'm fine with either continuing or starting anew based on whatever other people have to say.

Keep this going according to Bad Boy here, but start a new post for the shiny. This prevents complications.

Sorry guys, school trip in belgium, I'll try to knock something togeter soonish hopefully though.
I think the induction of "LOL" "OMG" and "<3" into the Oxford English Dictionary is a sign of the End Times. Only, instead of a rider on a pale horse, it'll be a gibberish-spewing spastic in a monster truck named "The Dildozer".

LT is back, not sure how the scheduling should go for this though, i.e. should he go before kp or after? Either way it's good news.

Edit: So anyone gonna do something here?
