yo homeys,
i need some help cuz i know nuthin' about anime...

Sandlin's bricriu is anime influenced,
also Kuester's recent ship (ves?),
and the many mecha out there...

i've heard about Cowboy sumthin...
and I've seen a few films, and I'm
NOT really into mecha films, but i DO
like spaceships...

so,
can anyone suggest directors or films
that I can get on DVD w/ spaceships that
are good anime?

thx much

Well the first one you must watch is Super Dimensional Fortress Macross.
There's a few interesting space ship designs in there, especially the SDF-1.
It might be helpful to just get a book if you want inspiration.  The DVD is
not out yet although you can kinda get it through the new Robotech DVD's.
Along this series check out "Macross: Do you Remember Love" which has some
awesome designs based on this series.

The series that you are refering to is Cowboy Bepop.  I haven't seen it
myself yet but i heard there are lots of space ships in it.

Other than that i can't think of many other series with space ships except
starblazers.

In terms of mecha inspiration check out:
Escaflowne(awesome steam-punkish/medieval type designs)
Five Star Stories(haven't seen the anime but the mecha designs are nuts!)
Evangelion(cool, slender, sinister looking designs)

and of course
Gundam(and all it's variants)

Hope that helps.

Please do not forget Transformers, Go-Bots, Transformers Generation 2, Beast
Wars/Beasties, and Beast Machines.  These series may not be anime but some
of those designs, especially the Transformers and Transformers Generation 2
series, are pretty good in their design structure.
