My newest ship (BIG!), "Justice"

hey! that's cheating! using up all the horizantal space doesn't count if it's so thin! (although mine isn't done yet either, but no part is planned to be thin at all - let alone that thin)

lol
That's just the center beam, bridge, frame thingy, in the end, the front section will be about as wide as the back. When I'm finally finished the ship, it will look a bit like this, except decent and gold and white:

Note, I just cobbled this thing together to show what my final design will be like, don't worry the final product will (hopefully) not look like shit.

i think it should be obvious. just delete half the ship (like right next to the core) and re-mirror.

No I said I'd though of the final design, which I showed, sorry if I worded that badly.

Here are a couple of cropped pics of the ship in shipmaker at full zoom. The front is almost finished, but is well on its way. It now has a few weapons and modules, all modified.

Also, I now have 1170 pieces and the ship file is 1305 kb, Wow, I'm proud of myself. By the time this ship is finishd, I'll hopefully have about 5000 pieces and the ship file will be about 6 megs. Also, it no longer works in game. Yay!

Note: the ship looks better then this, I just had trouble cropping the pics to fit together properly.

Sorry about the triple post:D, but for whatever reason, I can't edit my last, but I forgot to say, tell me what you think about the design, colour scheme, etc.

Nice color scheme, though it looks a bit lopsided

IMO the middle section would look better skinner. Like the width of the beginning of the last part

Bad Boy · Post by **Bad Boy** » Sun Feb 03, 2008 2:19 pm

Ya, but the middle section is going to have two side sections coming out from it so...

Why does it no longer work in game? lol.

Bad Boy · Post by **Bad Boy** » Sun Feb 03, 2008 2:34 pm

One of two reasons, either a) Too many freaking pieces OR b) I started it using shipmaker 3.0 or 3.1, and am continuing it using shipmaker 3.2.
Either way, I'm going to finish it and post it in all of its marvelous shipmaker screenshot glory!

My 300 piece ship takes some time to load. I wouldn't be surprised if yours took 5-10 minutes to load XD
