I don't have much time (gotta get up at 0530), so I'll just put my
comments in a weird chart thing.
Gunboat comments:
Likes:
The non-linear design.
The weapon locations.
The internal cockpit design.
Dislikes: None
Large unfinished ship comments:
Likes:
The engine design is el neato!
The overall shape is pretty cool.
The control room is pretty nifty.
The plate emplacement beams (I presume that that's what they are) are
a good engineering touch.
Dislikes:
Proportions: The ship would look MUCH better if perhaps the
midsection and cockpit were longer, at least to me.
Color scheme: The ship is rather, colorful.. Though I've made many
colorful ships myself, and you don't seem to have many pieces. So you're
forgiven. =)
