IT'S OVER 9000!
Well, not exactly, but you get the point .

Armed to the teeth, with 4 separate custom turret animations. I think it's balanced for a ship of it's size . However, it needs a bit of "warm-up" time when you deploy it, as the turrets act weirdly with their first shots.
Aaaand I realized I forgot to sprite dump .
Sprite pack for the whole fleet thus far:

I had zoomed in so the smaller details would be visible, mostly the custom cannons.
The clutter probably came from the added on cannons, or is it somewhere else?

Without:
Edit: Turret bump, at x4 magnification!
Dual-barrel turret, similar to the one on the Garlah.
Gatling turret.
Tac Nuke Sabot turret.
Kinetic Cannon

Yay, colour depthing works . I had intended the the side view of the ship to be like the "bulgy disk" shape, kinda like the Milky Way looked at sideways. So it was natural that there would be a hunchback to it. Unless, there is something wrong with that?Silverware wrote:I would say the area that seems cluttered would be the center line, i don't find it to be myself, i like the detail levels on there
Mind the central area does look alot higher than the front or back, sorta like a hunchback.
Added the cannons to the post, should I keep them, or switch to single sprites?jwa8402 wrote:While I personally like the cannons, I'd say if theres a problem there its that they are sections rather than purpose drawn weapons, and at first glance I see them as such.
I have to compliment you again on the shape of the wings.
And thanks, guys .

The Weapons are up to you really, since they are sections might as well leave them like that as others can easily make their own from the same sections.
And if you do make them into turrets you would have to get permissions from the guy who made them and all. Probably isn't worth it, unless your doing it to save on some sections and make the ship a little less of a lagg monster, not that it is or isn't.
Also with the hunchbacked shape I don't think there is anything wrong with it, it just looks... odd.
And depending upon how high each person looks at it as being it could be really strange, I can just see someone looking at it and thinking its as high as it is wide, or higher.
PenisBrick on it's side maybe. =P

Droid sums it up quite nicely .Doogie12 wrote:The nose does seem a bit too bland/blocky...and while i like the antennea (did i spell that right?) i don't see how you can add the glows for engines too them
and it doesn't have those awesome "jointed" wings that i love so much
However i would like to see where this goes...
Yes, the hole rotates! It was inspired by Anna's Holy Ship here:Droid wrote:Since it's an Early WIP, I'm going to go ahead and assume the front portion is incomplete.
Will the ring around the hole rotate?

However, since I still can't find an adequate program to make a .gif out of the screenshots, I can't get an animated version out yet. And program suggestions?
The side arms irritated me to no end yesterday, and I plan to rip 'em out, along with most of the back and re-do it. It was more cluttered than I can handle.
The whole ship is designed to be some sort of electronic combat battleship/cruiser/etc.
Edit:
~HALLELUJAH~
Much thanks to Squishy and Arcalane on the IRC for showing me how to do this!
Still WIP. Nearly impossible to get a perfect looping gif, as the rotation of the two ovals inside don't match up when the outer ring hits 90 degrees .
