The ship designer is out now in the the alpha 2.0 patch, so when have a that ship designed feel free to post it here and so others can see what kind of cool things you can build with it.
DARCA1213 that is a very nice design
sulley1 your ship is a perfect addition to the terran fleet
Sure, but then sully1 showed up with his metaphoric super model girlfriend. LOL (its a effective design that can handle attacks from most angles, nice sully1 +1 )
we desperately need a file sharing system because I am getting envy...lust.
Ima build some more and see if I can make a good Iridium design with my free time, I like the iridium...and building now. (and $1,000)
That is awesome!
A lot of very interesting designs so far.
At most I was impressed by
- Topdown view
- Underneath
awesome ship, Darca.
Here are some I put together, some for the contest and some not.
First up is an Iridian Paladin.
Second is a Frigate.
Next is an explorer, but it could be used for any combat role.
Next in the lineup is a little fighter.
Then there's a gunboat.
Here's a quicky of some support ships.
Scout
Constructor
and Colony Ship
Odin Class Carrier. Will enter into competition along with previous 2 ships.
Those are really great shots of your ships, Adamb. I appreciate you sharing. I can see the competition is going to be fierce.
My latest contest submission #4.
Pure Terran designed small scale Fighter/Bomber. The "Crusader". Nothing but Terran ship parts used.
Sleek little fighter, Rand
Rand super job. GC3 designer allows for much better fighters over what GC2 did.
Grathocke I love the explorer and gunboatadamb1011 I dislike most Altarian ships, BUT I love yours
Skukkuk your ship is probably the most realistic one posted
Awesome Ships guys!!!............
Thanks Grathocke and Nastytang
And Ed, thanks for the kind words. I find altarian ships really hard to design - the lack of flat/square edges makes them difficult to put together without noticeable blemishes etc. But I also love the end result, so it's often worth the extra effort.
@stardock: it would be great to get some more altarian parts that have a couple of flat edges and surfaces as well as mostly rounded ones, to help them fit together so to speak. These edges would not be exposed, but serve as building blocks so designers can be more flexible. There's a couple already, but the edges and surfaces don't match up well and leave sharp edges exposed, and I think the style you are trying to achieve with altarian ships is a more rounded and flowing one.
Just curious, how are you guys all submitting your contest entries? Are you submitting a single view or a combination of views? Or are you submitting one view and then a link to a video? I'm just torn about the best way and figured I'd ask what you all are doing... I'm finishing up a few designs and I'm really excited to post them here.
These are my design for the contest. My Command ship, a battleship, a salvage ship and a fighter.
Big fan of the salvage ship!
adamb1011, This is a video of it that I submitted because of all the animation.

Amen!
I have the same problem with them. It is really hard to make a beautiful ship. However, yours is outstanding! It is so much more than I thought possible.
