Yep, looks promissing http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

[General Woundwort]

Ooooooooooh.

Looks more than vaguely predatory.

Let's see more...

outrigger canoe? but that's not the specific name.

nice.

[Loser]

Catamaran?

[narf poit chez BOOM]

yeah, that's it.

i wonder it the race will have fur?

[Atrocities]

Narf you should fear this race.

The New Andorian are done if any one here cares to take a look at them. http://www.astmod.com/images/andorian/Andorian.htm

The concept ship at the start of this thread, was something that I visualized Last night. I had not considered that it looked like some boat, but given the fact that most ships do look like boats in some way or another, I guess it fits.

I was thinking along the lines of a Cat Race.

Then, please, use a race portrait from Red Dwarf http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

It reminds me more of a Formula 1 than a boat.

But if you want a list of interesting shapes on which to base ships, I can throw down a few.

My favorite has to be the feline shoulder blade. There's just something about asymmetry

[narf poit chez BOOM]

fear a cat? hah!

Katchoo then turns to Atrocities:

Very nice, and original, design, Atrocities!

Sigh... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif now I'm starting to miss GarLunarFang... he was (and might still be) a regular at the Atari MOO3 forums, and he had the cutest little manga cat avatar, so all the newbies thought he was a girl http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif And he'd always roleplay this cat character who had a weakness for Mrrshan catnip... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

*wacks Katchoo on the head while his back is turned and throws the resulting disk into deep space*

[Captain Kwok]

I like the new concept. With some texture work, it could look really sharp.

[Atrocities]

Thanks. I am glad it is a liked concept. I will play around with it more when I have time.
