StarMade Ship Size Comparison Chart

Thank you! Is the white outline to make sure it stands out from the background?

Yup, otherwise it'd be near impossible to see :P

 

[Tshara]

Yup, otherwise it'd be near impossible to see :p

Could you perhaps do something similar with the QueenBee? Both the cockpit and the wingy antenna bits are basically gone because of the black background.

The Chart is getting along very well. Needs some smaller ships to fill out the left side though.

 

[The Judge]

Damnit I need to finish the Quark now

 

[jontyfreack]

how about this thing PGF RedBorn FRIGATE
this s*** 7
or this tryopant alpha

 

[Drumboy168]

Yup, otherwise it'd be near impossible to see :p

That's what I thought. I'm going to pretend that that was an intended stealth feature. Thanks again!

I would assume as all the darker ships have it.

Could you possibly do this for the Argo, I build my ships pretty dark for stealth reasons, plus i noticed the text was clipping a little

Also, what program are you using to get the pictures? i know you are using photoshop to put the entire thing together, I might make a similar chart with all my ships

 

[Master_Artificer]

It makes sense to build ships black until you realize that more often than not starmade space is full of really bright nebulas and being black means you stand out very sharply...
Also just realized that removing the front turrets meant that the Lansing was under 100m, am sprucing up the Arbor to take its place. (10 blocks longer). Sorry about that

EDIT: Here Jake, you can replace it with this, Arbor Yacht, 105m long.
I can just have the smaller guys on the smaller chart.

Now time to maybe think about working again on that 400+m kol...

 

[Deserea]

An update with actual ships this time... xD

• Added Deserea 's Ravens Call (I'm sorry it took this long ;-
• Added Tshara 's RadiantDawn
• Added Master_Artificer 's Lansing-class (requested via PM)
• Added Drumboy168 's Idyllic-class

Yay!!! If you want more to put up there you can do the midnight sun, and the nessun dorma, id put links for them both but my internet is so bad it wouldn't load!

 

[LordPizzaJunkie]

This is very cool looking, great way to get some perspective for the game.
LordPizzaJunkie_Fleet_submission_1 my fleet from the contest (if you want to pick one ship only, I would say go for the frigate)

 

[Master_Artificer]

Also, this entire time I thought you were using the "Export as Model" to put them all in some software like CAD or Inventor or google sketchup, but then I read through the entire thread and you just take images and paste them on a black background.

Sometimes the simpler way is the better way.

 

[Gonzalo]

A massive community-driven project aimed at recording the size of as many StarMade ships as possible, for reference and comparison.

Original idea inspired by Lone_Puppy , HorribleHedgehog , and DirkLoechel of DeviantArt.

Ship lengths are calculated in pixels, e.g, if the ship is 200m, the ship is rendered as 200 pixels long on the chart.

This post will be continually updated with new progress on the chart.

If you want your ship included on the chart, post the Community Content and/or download link below and I'll add it as soon as I'm able. I'm unable to accept replicas of other Sci-fi or real ships and/or spaceborne lifeforms, as this chart is meant to show only original vessels that are built by StarMade's many talented shipwrights.

Current progress: Version ALPHA 0.4A​

you should add the intruder, ya boi fd has a bp

 

[Jake_Lancia]

you should add the intruder, ya boi fd has a bp

Even if I had access to the raw BP I would need permission from Zoro which is near impossible given the fact that he's banned from SMD. I would like to include it at some point though since it's a major faction ship.

 

[Master_Artificer]

you should take a screenshot of one in a black sector or use that mod jake is using and then post it here so he can use it like refi did.

 

[Jake_Lancia]

Don't worry, this is still being worked on, I'm simply having a bit of a break~
I worked nonstop for over a week to get this far, I kinda need a small break from it xD

 

[HorribleHedgehog]

A well-deserved break, take all the time you need.

Gives me more time to get my Starmade mojo back and maybe get another ship for the chart.

 

[Lone_Puppy]

Yeah man, you've done well with this project!

 

[Master_Artificer]

WHY IS THIS NOT STICKIED?!?


(if there is a reason I will shut up, sorry)

 

[Jake_Lancia]

I'm baaaaaaaaaack!

• Added Master_Artificer 's Arbor-class
• Added jontyfreack 's REDBORN Frigate, tryophant alpha and s*** 7
• Removed 'PGF' from the REDBORN Strike Corvette; 'REDBORN' now takes its place
• Added the Trident Freedom II-class and Sentinel-class vessels
• Added my Scavenger Consortium Mercury II and Freedom II
• Lightened up several too-dark ships for clarity

Beautiful chart, love the effort you put in.

Apart from none of my ships being large enough for inclusion or close enough to call finished, the one thing that bugs me are the toppled buildings as a reference - any chance you might turn them upright, or maybe use bridges instead? ;)
Or since this is about space ships not space buildings... how about actually using ships as a more appropriate reference scale? The Titanic comes to mind as iconic, as do the Enterprise or Nimitz carriers, or the Seawise Giant/Knock Nevis. The ISS as a real 'space ship' might make an appropriate reference too, although it just barely qualifies for size.
