Icaran Super Dreadnought (Beauty Shot)

[Starhawk]

Here is a scene including 4 of the Yu Hing Pe Class super dreadnoughts of the Icaran Royal Navy.

Please let me know what you think

Make sure you don't uses BMPs when posting it like this they are just to large.

Sorry here's the jpeg version

Anyway what do you guys think of the ships?

[Sivran]

I look at them and I think, "What are those flat tops doing with guns on their flight decks?"

In other words, when I look at them I actually think of a WW2 aircraft carrier. Their surface needs some miscellaneous protrusions, or something, instead of being a long flat plane with guns set on top of it.

On a closer look I notice that the second turret back seems to have a platform under it. Making this bigger would help alleviate the flat-top look. If you -want- to do that, I mean.

Pretty. However, the two ships in the middle looked like one ship to me at first glance.

If you make another shot like this, more starfield. I mean, the moon/planet crescent in the background is beautiful, but some stars would be nice. Also, make it more pronounced, so that more people see it.

As for the ships, they look very cool. I can see you're going for the Bismarck look... at first glance I thought the eagle on the bow/stern of the frontmost ship was actually standing on a swastika. Perhaps you should give this some work. Especially in the actual portraits, people will think it's a nazi shipset, and I don't think you want that.

And I agree with Sivran you should add more relief (I've seen this word being used in English before. It's meant as the Dutch word "reliëf" as being small "altitude" differences, i.e. 3d protrusions and such.) like walkways to the turrets, a larger superstructure, perhaps even railings, especially if you're going for the "wet navy" look as you said before.

(Railings would be there so that astronauts would be able to grab hold of them to prevent flying away from the ship during EVA. You didn't think I was stupid enough to think the Icarans are a spaceborne species, living in vacuum, did you?)

ya never know

They look like naval ships without top decks flying in space. If that's what look you're going for, it looks really good

[Strategia_In_Ultima]

I'm not saying it doesn't look good, I'm saying it could look even better. I don't really like those flat tops either. I would love to see some detail as to what is on them. And if there is nothing on them, well, I'd love to see you place something on them

[NullAshton]

Maybe add more guns? Guns are always good. Maybe some piping.
