Default Re: BF Gothic Imperial Navy Shipset start

Well, yes, but mind you that I've made the ship with 128 x 128 display in mind... I think it will loose something in the translation and I've not the time to put super-detail into it to make it look good at higher resolution (rather, it will delay the rest of the shipset). The eagles-head on the prow, for instance, looks pretty sucky at higher resolution since I actually was trying to get the lower-res version to look like something other than a dodgey sort of blob thingy. In order for even basic shape to come out I went for an oversized blockier appearance in order to get better visibility when smaller.

I'm also making it so that I can change colors easily, Bow base color and hilights are tracked separately from body colors. Like my chaos shipset, once I get the first shipset done, several variants with different color themes will be a snap.
