my new sprite for Burning Horizon:



real size:




double size:




it's meant in 1x originally, but in the end 2x looked cool too. which one do you think is best?

PS.1: I got a 4x version too, for working purposes.
(I have worked in 2x, but I use 4x for transparencies etc. don't have gimp or PSP, it's so all made pixelwise)

PS.2: the images have been converted from .BMP to .GIF for uploading purposes. the 1x .bmp is 48.0 KB large and the 2x 192 KB. just a little bit over the upload limit for servimg.com
I can send the .bmp imgs by mail if you need them.
(don't even ask for the size of the 4x .bmp, that's just ridiculous. )


it's a large, advanced carrier, operated by few, it houses a amount of fighters, it's crew, and it's most fearsome weapon: unmanned fighters, ruthlesly efficient and withouth any tactical flaws.

average speed and manouverability, (for it's size) fairly light, large cargo and antimatter supplies, average weapons.

i totally luv the new ones! ( i did look at it, but i couldnt log in due to pass. problems)

thanks...

I just think... should they be a bit darker maybe?\

I'm already designing a new ship for the same species...

sorry for the doublepost, but I me haz a new sprite.



a sword-shaped cruiser, with it's in-line warpcores it can achieve great speeds and acceleration, however this also limits the warp manouverability. with a beam weapon strip over the complete side, it can fire very powerfull to the side, thus it's very usefull at flyby attacks. in the wings are the torpedotubes positioned, capable of firing both forwards and backwards.

i think its a little too dark. its really good though

Yeah a little dark but very good. And the carrier is good to. Having drone-fighters sounds good too.

drone fighters? that gives me an idea...

http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=1&u=12494884made it in the starship constructor. Yes, that is the size for it in the game.

More fighters...

@ trekkie: the first one looks cool - but it wouldn't fit with the carrier. could be a fighter from another race though. the second one remindes me really much of the sabre-class.

The second one is more like a heavy bomber style vessel.

It looks wierd.

it looks kool!

Thanks! im working on more... Do i have permission to put two or more posts in a row but not the same? Oh and im out of town so im not gonna make any more until i get back to my own house...

no, thats called double posting, but you can edit your posts, or wait for another person to post

Idon't see anything wrong with double posting if their 2 or more days apart, but besides that i would say just edit a post.

As i said, I wont be making any more in atleast a week.

hmm i didnt know bout the 2 days or more thing

Not a rule or anything, just seems logical to me.

ummmm......kinda weird looking if i may say so.....where do the ships take off?

i think on those blank , black spots .. they kinda look like holes to me

nice detail though.

yeah...a bit boxy tho, if you could make it look more like it could fly rather than it be looking like brick with holes in it

i would have said something but i didn't want to be mean.......

where are the nacelles? ssry this Q's been bugging me for months

Could be Built in. Some ships have there necallas internally.

look at the steamrunner class...nacelles built in. But honestly it looks like a big box
