Those have got to be....

the ****ing uglies things I've ever seen! :D

Good job! :D :yes:

 
There may be individual ships in SW that can be termed "ugly" but not as a ship class! I dare you to call these ships ugly so take it back Emperor...

in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,

Well I can't tell why, but these ships look quite cool. I like them they are so confusing to look at that this maybe could be there best weapon ^_^
(An confused enemy can't shoot back right?)

I would try to make some new/add textures where the different parts are connected so that it looks like they have been weld together, but after that not beein painted...or even think about letting them be just grey...as they wheren't paintet.

I wondered about that.  I figured it was upside-down but I didn't know which one it was.

'takes a closer look'

so it is! That was the only part I couldn't get.

Very good man:yes:
Flying them could be a realy pain (due to the strange alignment of COG, thrust resultant, weapon ports and cockpit position), but would also very intresting

Now make a few more, maybe some symetric ones?

One question: Why are there no Apollo parts? I'd of thought those would have the easiest to get hold of.....

Well done, Turnsky! Did anyone notice that the Zeus hull was backwards?

I'm considering making more, if I can get  my hands on some more scraps... perhaps use chunks from the Kulas, Myrmidon and Scimitar, and some pieces from Inferno's Jotun and Notus.

There's no Apollo pieces because they're connected in such a way that it's nearly impossible to integrate them into the other hulls. The Loki, Herc and Medusa are all fairly modular while the Apollo's bits connect in weird ways.

as said before, try some more semetric ones.

and what about this idea?

take the weapons hull of a Centaur, about five of them, welded in a line. now, had some stretched nose, a few big engines, and various missile pods on the side, and some turrets top&bottom. it could be used as an utlra heavy fighter/ultra light cruiser.

Navajo and Yurok look cool :)

It all depends. Who knows, maybe I'll hand out one to each campaign that wants them... :D
