So that was a good nap, time to get back at it, eh?

Erg. The muse will not comply. I'm in the process of thinking up new designs, stuff to replace everything I have so far. New fighters, new cargo vessels, and hopefully some actual warships. I can see them in my head, but can't get them to paper or shipyard. Anyone else have this happen to them?

Constantly. I think only 10% of my designs only make it to even being started, with only 10% of THOSE getting to a "finished" state.

In fact, my 2 big projects now are at a point where I can close up the hull and start in interior, but I'm drawing a blank as to layout and look

Occasionally i'll think of a design I really want to do but can't get it implemented.

At least you could start those two. xD I think it would be worse to start something, get near the end and then not be able to complete it satisfactorily.

Do you try to save the idea for later when you might be able to implement it?

Usually. I have one project in particular I don't know when i'll actually get started. Mainly because it's a replica build and if I do it I want to get it perfectly right.

That's what has kept me from making replicas. Tried the Enterprise once, couldn't get it perfect, was more stressful than I expected it to be. So I stay away from replicas.

Welp I am alive again... well, I actually have a working computer. And a graphics card that can handle Starmade (and loads of other games). It's been a journey. xD Back to building.

So working on a few things. Updating the fighter line is.. tedious. I've focused on a few new ships, and managed to create some neat looking engines.

The Serval-class corvette, still under construction. My test bed for the power and weapons changes. Cannons are ... kind of meh. Missiles are okay, but you can't shoot them down any more with mini-AMS. Beams are god-mode. Sweet looking engines, sweet enough that I'm going to emulate them on all the other ships I build now. Including the fighters.

GS-73-1000. The 91's chubby little sister. Still a work in progress, going to update her with the industrial looking engines.

 

[Gasboy]

Still building stuff.

The two ships from the previous post, plus the in-progress Gaswerks, and a new cargo ship with the crazy industrial engine design. Slightly slimmed down. The corvette engine looked ridiculous, it was half the size of the ship. xD The old jump/defensive ring is now the stabilizer/defensive ring. The corvette there now has defensive turrets. Even though they spit out a veritable lead stream... can't even shoot down a single missile. :O

More work on the station, working on a small shipyard.

Ugh, October already. Where the hell does the time go?
