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.
I am sending mine as single views. I think most are as well and I just do not want to mess with Paint Shop Pro to put together a 4 view or 5 view collage of my ships.
I submitted the same views I posted here, except for the salvage ship which I added a video (posted link here also) because of the animation.
Just submitted my latest ship.
The Krynn Convincer(a light large allround combat ship)
Convince the ignorants of the truths of the Krynn faith, and if they refuse send them on their way to heaven, hell, or whatever afterlife they believe in.
Thecw cool ship, love how the bands on the body look.
Edladner, if you want it you can grab a zip file with the design here.
Thank you Edlander, that's exactly what I'm going for.
Thanks Darca, that's exactly what I am going for also. I really want to mod the game to make it as realistic as possible. I want ships with designs that make sense: they are compact, have good firing angles, and therefore have a generally wedge shaped hull. I really can't wait for the combat viewer and the mod tools. Gal Civ has always been one of my favorite games.
And another one.
The Drengin Collector.(Large cannon armed survey ship. The intention is if it becomes possible to capture enemy ships to redesign this ship for that purpose)
Gathers valuables of any kind: space debris, ships, slaves. It does not matter, the collector can collect them all. And if fools resist, the collector has sufficient firepower to turn those fools into space debris.
Note: if a module will be created to capture enemy ships, this is the ship to place it on.
Cool ships Thecw!

Avarice.
So I'm finally putting the final touches on my contest entries. Here is the first: the T-14 Trident fighter.
Would love to hear what y'all think.
Finaly I made my entry for the contest, coming with a brand new engine of a yet not encountered aquatic race: Singularity Drive
YouTube Video:
You see a scout ship, made with the internal designer tool, equipped with the Singularity Drive. Ship and engine are only concepts and designed for Stardocks Ship Designer contest. Currently I built in conventional engines at the first SD-engine ring but if it makes into the game there should be a unique one.
SingularityDrive concept: http://www.mediafire.com/view/w8c8r7k84egfwgy/SingularityDrive_Concept.pdf
GalCiv3 designer file: http://www.mediafire.com/download/ysudbva66j39x2h/SingularityScoutDesign.rar
(besides: I do have problems with the designer. When designing a ship, save it and see it in my ship rooster to build. But when I re-start GalCiv3 it is gone. Any idea how to solve?)
trumpeter87 I really like this one, has a nice raptor quality to it
DARCA1213 greedy for victims? It does look deadly.
Thecw nice design, please say it is animated
Skukkuk ahh snuck one in while I was typing, I love space ships, It is just so much fun looking at everyone else's designs. I vote COOL.
This is my contest entry ship, the Subspace Shredder:
Video with the animation:
It is an experimental large hulled Terran ship. The back engine area is animated with large rotor blades.
Was a lot of fun building the ship, and I'm looking forward to seeing more of what others are making.
Of course, the nasty claws are coming to get you. Find the design files here.
Edit: by request Drengin Collector Animation Demo
Here's mine: an Altarian dreadnaut called the Archangel:
Came out looking a bit like an Eradica titan, but that's not a bad thing
Here is my second contest entry (finally)... the S-7 Dagger: a small hull fighter/bomber.
Comments, critiques, and insults are welcome.
trumpeter87 insults????? I like it, looks like a y wing and b wing had a little fling.
Thanks, Ed. I agree, it does have a bit of a Star Wars vibe going on--though that wasn't intentional... it just kind of happened, but I am really pleased that it did because it really captures my overall aesthetic for ship designs (reminds me of some of my favorite custom GCII designs--only this is WAY more sophisticated by the sheer wonder that is the GCIII ship designer (thank you dev team!)).
And here is entry number three--a medium hull frigate, the M-49 Guardian.
As requested through pm: Drengin Collector Animation Demo
Also updated previous post with the same link.
Cool one, Thecw, gigantic space crab!
trumpeter I like to have this one.
What's the best way to share the files?
And here is my final entry for the contest... a large capital ship, the L-35 Battle Axe:
