I think this look really cool, or not?

Spoiler: And a new ship that is not titan sized

The Ageis Anti-Fighter frigate

+1 for the engines.

 

[Gasboy]

+1 for the engines.

Only... +1?

Hmm... ähmm... Yeah... ähh Hi!

I know it's bin some time since my last post here but I,m not dead (or this thread).

I have two new shiphulls in work:

The first one is the Spearhead-Class (or inoffical called "Fatass")

Spoiler: Spearhead-Class

The seacond one is a new titansized mining/refinery themed ship called Anvil-Class

Spoiler: Anvil-Class

The turrets of the Anvil are more tools than weapons the civilian nature of the ship dosent giv them access to military grade weapons,
but thinking the ship defenceless is a bad idea.

The Grinder turret is a mining turret with easily melt even the largest asteroids.

Manuvering in dence asteroidfields can be complicated especialy fot a titansized ship so this turret is equipped with a railgun to
shoot low velocity "Shells" of compressed smelting waste on asteroids to move them away, to mak a free passage through the field.
Engineers later modified the railconduits for a more powerful acceleraction to make it as weapon useful.
A sideeffect of the highspeed acceleration is that the wastebricks break apart so the weapon fires a shrapnelstorm instead of an solid bullet,
because of this the weapon sometimes nicknamed "Spacewaste Boomstick".

When your SpearHead, and my SpearHead are both done, we'll have to fight 'em lol

So far, yours is prettier than mine. And...uh....more complete lol

Only the hull is finished, inside its realy empty cause of my lag of skills for interior design/floorplaning.
Btw that will be a easy win for you, your Spearhead is two times larger than my Spearhead.
Why not challange my Metalforce Class, this one should play in your weigth class.

Oh, and I like the turrets of your Spearhead, maybe the turretbase looks a bit small for the barrel,
but the barrel looks really nice.

Thanks! I'm actually trying to emulate the look of the Gauss rifle from fallout 2 lol. I agree that the base is too small, it's really a prototype. I'll be going back to it once I get more done on the ship.

The Metalforce looks badass! I can't believe I missed it when you first released it!

Hey,

Today I really proud to show you the first modules of my modular Hallway system (and I'm really proud because I normally suck in Interior).

I used a 9x9x6 layout for it.

Spoiler: FoI Standard Hallways

And Emergency lightning

So what do you think?

 

[Brokengauge]

I would add a couple (as in 2 at most) random consoles, computers, or screens to break up repeating patterns a little: uniformity is good, but too much makes it seem bland, which is a shame because what you've got so far does look good! But take my advice at your own peril lol. There are better ppl at this than me

Edit: I forgot to mention, I like the subdued emergency lights. I can never get that right, so I usually just drown each room/deck/hallway in its own color lights, then add red accents. Things get a bit saturated, but whatever you did looks clean.

 

[madman Captain]

Dont worry that was just the first five modules. I use them as template for more differend modules.

 

[Brokengauge]

Oh good! You obviously know what you're doing. I'll just shut up now lol

 

[madman Captain]

Ok its maybe escalated a bit

But now we have multilevel room options

and emergency lightning

and more

But I have still no idea how I should design a crew room or a restroom.

 

[Brokengauge]

Maybe try putting some slabs down recessed into a wall, kind of like this?

 

[madman Captain]

Like this?

 

[Brokengauge]

Like this?

Yes! Though I'd make those beds 1/4 slabs. Looks a little cramped.

 

[madman Captain]

place is limited. I try to use the same 9x9x6 layout like the other modules.

I see, and if you make those bottom slabs 1/4, they'll be flush with the floor, which is no good!

It looks good though! You kept saying you're no good at interiors, but obviously that's not true lol

 

[madman Captain]

It looks like I betrayed myself, I really believed that I suck in this, or I just grow by my challanges.

 

[madman Captain]

New ship design.

Its a Cargoship

The Hansa-Class

 

[madman Captain]

Ähm... Ship Releases \o/

First with interior mostly done the FoI Hansa-Class Armed Cargo Liner

and second: two shells: FoI Spearhead-Class Patrol frigate and FoI Ageis-Class Anti-Fighter frigate
