Which of the three do you like the most. I like number 2 the most. I do like number 1, but it looks to B5'ish for me.

[Gryphin]

I like number 3 because it is the most visible.

[Hrothgar]

I like number 2, altho Gryphin has a point about three's visibility.

[General Woundwort]

Put me down for #2.

[Raging Deadstar]

I actually like number 1 the best, closely followed by number 3. The 2nd ones texture is just a bit strange and it doesn't appeal to me. I like the first one because it reminds me of some aquatic creature http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif I like the colour of number 3 but number 1 is the best!

Woohoo i'm a First Lieutenant, i remember the days when i only had 50 Posts. I believe 25% of them were in the cantina, 15% posting about Atrocities shipsets http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif (yep that much) and 60% i havn't got a clue about http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

[Katchoo]

I like No. 3 myself. There's just not enough red'ish shipsets out there.

[Chronon]

I also like number 3. The colors go well together, and I think Gryphin's right about the visibility.

[Taera]

#3, very unique. i like it.

[dogscoff]

I like the blue one best.

[Q]

Number 2, but I agree that the visibility is better for number 3.

[Narrew]

I like #2. #3 is to pinkinsh to me, but I am somewhat color blind, so what do I know.

What program are you using to draw these?

[Andrés]

#1 and #3 have too saturated colors.
#2 looks too organic, but nice.
What about a grey-metal or perhaps slightly blueish metal Version?

[primitive]

Red, Red, Red !!!

Nice looking ship also, very distinctive.

[Xaren Hypr]

I also prefer number 1, dunno about the other two tho...

[tesco samoa]

#3

But you could make #2 as #3's arch / alternate universe rivals... He He He... for the Race picture... just put a goatee on it ...

[Kamog]

I like #1 the best. The metallic blue surfaces look really good. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

#2 is kind of dark and harder to see against the black background, and the small red, blue, and green parts don't really go well with the rest of the ship which is dark brown. It might be better to make those small parts all red or all green, or perhaps have two colors; with three colors it has a sort of mismatched appearance.

#3 is too pink-looking. Aliens probably have a different sense of aethetics when it comes to colors for their ships, but in my opinion, I wouldn't want to fly a pink ship for the same reason I wouldn't want to drive a pink car.

Very nice work. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

[PvK]

I prefer #3, because it goes all the way with the candy colors.

I might prefer #2 though, if the candy red/blue components were changed to something else, perhaps more metallic or glowing in a color that didn't contrast with the brown as much.

#1 is pretty good by me, too, though.

Thanks guys http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

When I publish the set I will publish it in all three colors.

[Fyron]

You can have a factionalized race, with each set representing a different faction. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

for the Race picture... just put a goatee on it ...

If you do not know yet, I am in the process of making Neo Standard ships for the Star Trek Races that I have Developed for Space Empires.

I have completed the Cardassians and you can view them HERE (http://astmod.com/nasy/cardassian.htm)

Here are some more concept ships for your pleasure.

http://astmod.com/concept/ss2.BMP http://astmod.com/concept/ss2m.BMP

[Stone Mill]

Nice work on the Cardassians! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif That color looks especially nice against the black background.

[Atrocities]

This set is nearing completion. I have but a few more images to complete before it is done. I will render it all in red and blue to begin with then eventually in other colors.

Remember I also have two other sets on the burner right now, the magic flower and magic bow sets are still in need of completion. I might just release those images as extras for whoever wants to use them. I may not finish them as sets. No reason to actually because there is no demand for funky sets like them.

[Fyron]

Umm... yes there is... you were making them as Magic ship sets for Adamant Mod, remember?

[Atrocities]

Oh ya, that had slipped my mind. *scratches head* I wonder how that happened, that I forgot that I mean?

[Atrocities]

Here are the new fighters for the race I am developing now. What do you think?

[oleg]

Actually, I think ships you started this thread with look more like fighters, and latest images more like ships. right ?

[Fyron]

I think they look like the ships of a different race. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

[Captain Kwok]

I like the new images you just posted and I agree with Oleg that they are better suited as ships. I think they could use a sharper texture though.

[Ragnarok]

I would have to agree with everyone else. I think the new images are better suited as ships then fighters. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

[Loser]

Well I like them.

[JLS]

Great work, Atrocities http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

[Narrew]

I like your fighters, at least they look like ships http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif

[Raging Deadstar]

I have to admit i wasn't too keen on the new ships but the "fighters" are amazing. I agree with everyone else that maybe you should base them as the ships, they have a deadly kind of look to them http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Here are two really old concept ships. Any one care to venture a guess what I was working on?

[JLS]

They look like the Ships that spoon the Web around Capt Kurks Entrprise.

What was that race's name?

[narf poit chez BOOM]

judging from those nobs on the top:
SPRINKLERS!

[Atrocities]

The reason they look like ships is because of how they are displayed. I guess I wanted to know if you guys liked them or not.

[Atrocities]

Yup, sprinklers in space.

Seriously, they do not look tholian to me, but they do look kinda like Stardestroyers from star wars.
