Re: Calvin starts building again
Your ships are okay, you just didn't depth them at all, I mean they just look flat.
It looks like you attepted to on your Missile frigate and your AWACS frigate, but overall yout ships look flattened.
I'd also recommend changing the Missile tubes on the missile frigate as they just look akward one of the sections in Horsemonster's pack would work well. (think it was the "not a section but a weapon" one)
IMO you have good shapes and designs overall but they aren't really standing out because they are all the same 'level'.
(Sorry if this is unnessicary but when I mean depthing I meant that lower sections should be darker)

Re: Calvin starts building again
I think your style would only suit smaller ships at the moment, that big ship is rather messy, and the other have this nice, functional, simplistic feel to them

Re: Calvin starts building again
Actually I'm kind of liking the big ship, I would love to see an SB4 download so I can add some personal touches. You seem to have a good sense of internals here
naysayers will be shot

Re: Calvin starts building again
The color scheme looks really interesting and suits your ships really good, but as it was said before you should depth them all and add some details, then they will be really good
Edit: Theres a small symmetry error on the bottom left turret of your big ship

Re: Calvin starts building again
The new version of the Hel looks much better, if you want the "holes" in the front section to be where the rockets emerge you could set the Missile lauchers to have an alpha value of 0 making the missles appear to fly out of those sections.
I also like the Odin for the front panels, they just feel right.
Now just add doodads and glows to them and I think that these will turn out great.

Re: Calvin starts building again
the freyr is nice. the only alterations i would make is to bulk up the connections with the main thrusters at the back (try adding some horsemonster engineering sections or something in line with the thrusters underneath the yellow tail. also the covers for the side pods look a little disconnected from the body. you could add some more grey superstructure to make it appear more substantially connected to the centre of the ship. finally, please say that you have/will animate those missile launchers in the side pods. it would look awesome!
There is no OP, there is only more boosters...

Re: Calvin starts building again
You're doing good work here, even if the arrangement of parts seems a bit haphazard at times.
Your largest ship-- the battleship-- is really a mess overall, though. You could give it a significantly more coherent form without too much effort.
