But I could tell this was an AT shipset straight off, you do have a certain style of design. Most of the ships are scaled up or down versions of on hull shape. just a comment.
Compare them to the stock shipsets, and you will see Atrocities is doing his shipsets exactly the way all stock-ships are done. The different ships of each shipset are usually only bigger and have some extensions. I would like to have each shipset with truly unique ships/pictures, but that would probably multiply the amount of time necessary to create just a single set
We aim to please That was my goal with the Bartelians, but it didn't turn out exactly as planned. Right now I'm working on a (massive) set which does do that thing.

Of course, some ships'll look like each other; but these are just the ship "families", in which each ship is based on the previous incarnation. The Scouts, Escorts, Cutter, Corvette and Light DD are all based on the same design, and so are, for instance, everything between Cruiser and Battlecruiser, but regardless of this each "family" is significantly different from the others. So while a Cruiser seen from the front is somewhat reminiscent of a DD family ship seen from the front, there'll be plenty of differences in them. Not in the least where texture is concerned I'm working on the Battleship family now, and trust me it's wholly different from everything else I've got so far.

Sorry to post semi-related stuff like this here, but I just thought I'd mention it. Looks very nice as always AT You have a high standard of quality!
