Whaddya think?

[Starhawk]

[Starhawk]

What no opinions http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

[Ed Kolis]

Cool... looks like a handgun with engines!

[Renegade 13]

Not bad, neat texture!

[David E. Gervais]

Do you want an honest opinion? Or the regular "Nice ship, great texture, keep up the good work." kind of opinion?

Assuming the honest opinion is the one you want,.. the current scale of the texture makes it look like a close up view of some odd (brushed metal)'tool' (perhaps it fell off an astronaught's utility belt while working on the space station.) You need to scale it way down and perhaps add some criss-crossing lines to indicate some sort of panelling.

Well doesn't look like a tool to me with the lava glow but yeah maybe a little too smooth so here we go

[Strategia_In_Ultima]

It looks to me like a torpedo or other type of guided weapon, with the narrow (front) end being the back, and the engine nacelles carrying the explosives.

[El_Phil]

Looks upside down to me, slightly blurry textures and what are those holes on the front?

That is what I think of that picture.

Sorry, gonna have to go with DEG on this.

[Puke]

the first picture, i had a hard time telling what i was looking at. The second one looks alot more like a ship of some sort.

the plain-black portholes look a bit odd. maybe try to give them some shading or depth. I cant tell if they are windows, or gunports, or what.

it looks to me that the engines are pointing towards the front, which is a little strange - but maybe its designed to guard retreats!

[Hunpecked]

What Puke said.

I like the texture.

[Caduceus]

Second round is better, not sure which is the front and which is the back. Maybe tapering the center "nacelle" might help.

Very blocky.

[narf poit chez BOOM]

Whoop, didn't see the update. Second round is much better; only problem is that weird engine glow. Other than that, it's good.

[Starhawk]

Well the side with the long end sort of seems like a natural front to me what with the gunports there and all.

And yeah I am working on adding some depth to the gunports now but anyway my ships are inspired by this:

Your second edition is a great improvement on the first texture. Good job. Now the ship looks and feels like a ship and not so much a machined piece of metal.

and my comment on the ship looking like a 'tool' was aimed at the texture and not the shape.

I just looked at your second edition again, and I really like the improved texture.
