WYRDYSM GAMES

I just wanted to make something, and I like what came out of it. The ship shape is pretty generic, but I like the insectoid look and the manga-styled section palette. Some of the doodads seem asymmetric, but that's because they blink on and off. Worth keeping?



The Speedmonster Galaxythrust, or whatever. It's fast.


Here's a WIP dreadnought for one side of my new Fraxyship 'verse. Tell me what you think.


And here's the counterpart. It's as Terran as can be.

I was going to post up a thread for the fraxyships, but I whiffed out on inspiration - it'll have to come later.

Gallery of shit posted later in thread:

This is why I love it when vets make ships, there is always something that makes me go "ooh!"

To the first one, definitely worth keeping, though I'm never a fan of insectish ships. I will say the machine guns bother me. Could either be replaced or darkened but right now they pop out of the ship to my eye.

The fraxy ships are impressive. I don't normally care for fraxy, but you really did manage to make the second one look fairly Terran and the first one look evil and alienish.

I really like the fraxy ships, they have a sort of, idk, edge to them that I find appealing. Perhaps, tho, you could change the back end of the terran ship to reflect a more industrial engine block?

What do you mean by that, really? I think it looks kinda functional and straightforward, eg. "industrial" as it is.

Well, I mean the way the ships looks, the back just seems odd.. It could just be my lack of adequate taste but I think that if you maybe mimicked the front section with the way its made up of straight lines, then use fraxy sections 80 or 81 to act as engine exghausts, you would be able to give it a really cohesive design..

You can just ignore me if you want, im just babbling

Don't be so apologetic. I see what you mean, but I much prefer the way it currently looks.

The first fraxy ship (red one) looks like it could benefit from a little more armor near the back.

It actually had a fatter ass earlier, but I thought it looked too much like a fighter plane in space, so I slimmed it down. It actually looks like a bigger ship now.

Another doodle. Drenched in anime aesthetics..

I leik!

Whoops. I'm not allowed to say just that. My favorite things about this ship are the doodads, color, and shape. Do you think the HV missiles look weird there?

Very clever use of shapes and aegis settings to get that shiny flare from underneath the outer plates.

Realism, seriously? It's a space ship game. Realism was thrown out the window a long time ago.

I like the new ship, it has a nice shape and the sections look pretty good together. The glows are also interesting, I'm curious, does the arrow looking blue glow in the center point towards a super weapon of infinite doom?

It's a hidden missile bay, actually.



Looks like a speedster, doesn't it? The front is also part of the engine system, as the ship "bores" through space-time. I fell to the temptation of adding gratuitous fuel rods too. Might have to make a gif to show off the bling doodads.

Whoa

That's epic. I just looove your doodads. And that brown gradient in the front is great. Those green glows are just awesome.

So I suppose you could say the method of propulsion is rather boring?
