Default Opinions Sought and Needed (New Ship Set)

I wanted to make my own unique ship set basically from scratch. It is difficult, but fun. Here are some of the ships I am nearing completion on.

They still need some work, so your opinions do matter. Tell me which style you would prefer? The open wing or the battleship.

Hello Atrocities :-) Here are my comments (Starting with the first ship)[list][*]Very good for a medium craft. But i thik the wings seem too fragile to support these big cannons.[*]The best ship. Really good. Seems though and technologist. I like it vey much.[*]Very original, but i think that the hexagonal shape makes the ship vulnerable to side attacks. Better design for transports IMO[*]Same as above[*]I don't like this design. Rare proportion size/cannons. The shape of the ship seems appropiate for a huge one, with much smaller weapons.

In general, i think it some kind of symbol painted in the ships will make them seem better. But i like this first ships. I think you can do an excellent new shipset. What about the race?

Very nice work! I like all of them except the Last (which looks too much like a sea-going battleship instead of a space vehicle). The 1st, 3rd, and 4th are especially nice and are very distinct in the smaller, overhead view.

I really like them. Doga right? They all look nice, especially the Last one. I kinda like the fell of boats in space.

uh oh looks like we got another doga user ships look great. Only thing I would say is that if they are all part of one fleet then make the transition between ships look better. I realize this isn't all the ships and there probably not in any order, but jusy keep that in mind when you render up the next batch
