Worldships are typically supposed to be more or less round, as they are mostly used for things like Death Stars, Battlemoons, and other giant spherical planet-like ships.

I can add a round ship but why must all deathstars look alike?

More nice pictures!

Maybe the hole in the front is for scooping up dropped components and cargo in Starfury...

I don't have any imagination problems with square recesses in front, or with non-round world ships.

Er, and actually, that world ship picture below looks relatively rounded to me already.

Because then they are not deathstars... the whole concept of the world ship is a ship that looks like a world. Big, spherical.

Not just rounded... but spherical.

It has nothing to do with "imagination problems".

Yummy

Nice looking ships there, but I got some comments on the world ship

I like the fact its not beeing round (or spherical

), but looking like its been carved out of an astroide.
But it looks: Tiny

The bridge on top makes it look the size of a Caribian Cruiseship. Big enough for a week of holiday, but hardly something to be the scourge of the galaxy

The Death Star World Ship. And I tried to make it round, but the program has limits. I will include it with the set, but I do not like it.

How does this look compared to the older Version?

I never said it should look exactly like the Death Star... just more like a world than a big ship.

And, I will have to second primitive's statement that your other worldship doesn't look very big... make it look a bit rounder and more like a massive ship (like not having a singular gigantic bridge sticking out on top or just two big guns/engines or whatever those things on the side are).

Better to me.

Are these ships asymmetric

or is it just a trick of the angle

?

I do not understand your question. The angles might be effecting the intended appearance of the ships but again that is a limitation of the program used to create them

How is this one? Does it look bigger?

primitive · #39 November 18th, 2003, 03:06 AM

Much Better, but I think the "building" on top still could be smaller. Maybe it also could be worth a try to move the camera a bit down.

Fyron · #40 November 18th, 2003, 03:27 AM

It looks like a 4 story building on top of the asteroid... if it were 4 stories on a world ship, it would be a mere dot with that sized image. Think small moon. Maybe it could look like a small city on top of that thing?
