The canards?

The canards?

Definition (from dictionary.com):
an airplane that has its horizontal stabilizer and elevators located forward of the wing.
Also called canard wing. one of two small lifting wings located in front of the main wings.
an early airplane having a pusher engine with the rudder and elevator assembly in front of the wings.

so in other words, get rid of the front wings.

I like the outline better, but the engines looked better orange.

I am trying to akin it slightly to the MIR legion ships from Darkspace. They have blue engines, are spiky and have blue streaks. I am going to try to recreate that next time around. Thanks.

I didn't think of it till you said that, but ya I see it now. Hard to create such a 3d effect but as long as it slings QSTs at my enemies, I'm happy.

This is the MIL Eagle.

C&C needed.

...Did the Notdark Whatever crayon I gave you magically disappear?

Seriously: I hate this sort of dark color.

The shape is pretty good though.
But it seems a bit... bland... I can't describe it! Its like there's no depth at all to the dark sections!

everything forward of that demeter pod is alright, save for coloring, but the outline of the ship behind it just doesn't look very good. I'm not sure what it is, but something about that just looks ugly to me.

as for coloring, you could use a few more outlines, or use that shade of gray in between the two you already have.

UPDATE: (RP)

Sneaking into the room, the spy ducked down beneath a seat, switched on his communications enhancer and held his breath. The High chancellor of the MIL was just starting his speech...

"... This beast has 14 Heavy Plasma Conduits, which can throw out an amazing amount of energy, 160GW per laser per every 5 seconds. It still hasnt been fitted with the normal weapons that the MIL fleets carry. To power this beast is a salvaged core from a destroyed titan out of the Eridani system. Capable of tearing apart most ships and spitting them out in tiny little chunks, this ship is the ultimate power not only in the Meslat Industrial league, but in the galaxy. And it shall burn through our enemies like wildfire to ice. Hail the almighty MIL CONDOR!!!"

(RP over)

^^ C&C please. It hasnt been coulored yet as I cannot find a good coulor scheme yet.

Get the hell off my forum, that's an atrocity.

I genuinely can't point out any flaws because there are far too many.

Perhaps start at the front of the craft the work your way back. But please, at least something constructive not just "Its an atrocity" would be a bit more... helpful?

Let's see, shoddy section placement, weird sharp angles, odd and generally ugly shapes, a colorscheme that would make a blind person cry for his mommy... Scrap this and begin anew is my advice.

The coulor is temporary if you read the bottom of the post. Isnt there any way to save it? I worked the best part of about 4 hours on it and I don't want it all wasted.

Only the head is a mish mash of oddly angled parts. It is a stark contrast to the aft half of the ship. Smooth it out.
