hard to read that

panel is actually huge in original size

still i admit, it's the font that is wait too tight and slim

I started doing my ships based on my writing. The first ones were just sketches to help me visualize certain scenes.

yeah that really helps with the creative process usually

When I started running RPGs, they turned into deckplans, and have been snowballing since.

yeah and you can get really into it and it becomes a big thing

all in all, it helps with situating yourself with visual, it also is kinda fun to design stuff as you imagined

Yep. And people are generally more visually-oriented.

aye

Astra-Class science ship, stock.

*Natural Selection* modded gunship.

Working up a new stock ship is relaxing; modding one out from there is more fun.

that's pretty in depth, mate

A scientific space ship would be incredibly hard to launch in that shape, a modular design like the ISS is the only way space stations can be launched to space

Really cool design though, are those heat sheild tiles?

i sure hope they are

it looks very in depth with layered blueprints

Is it for reentry?

The beauty of space is you can have really fragile designs because it's a vacume

It’s an older piece but it still checks out

oh it checks out very much, mate

as a fan of detailing myself, I can appreciate the work on this mecha

nice use of only back and white

The universe my ships are in has gravity control. It's a side effect of the FTl drives. The older ships I create are closer to current tech; the newer ones get further away as the tech advances.

The stock version of those is from 2286 up.

the black and whites are often more cool than the colored fully shaded ones

They're cleaner at times, and you can fill in the colors mentally.

Okay, this is my oldest regular tech ship from my universe. Circa 2122.

Starflare FuelMaster refueling and processing ship.

I like the eclectic designs

Thanks. They reflect the changing tech over the centuries.
