Looks great!

The shiney, reflective translucent surfaces are very nice.

Looking good.

Thanks, and yes, the 'wings' are armor. And why do Terran ships have to be primitive, hmmm? Anyway, you won't be seeing this shipset in SE5 I'm afraid, since A) I still haven't found a way of properly exporting to .X format, and B) Under the terms of the NDA, my posting it here disqualifies it from being included in SE5.

But still, make the GD Set!

And we all know about the NDA..... Don't they regulate the food industry or something.

Exporting to X is a real PITA and one that I do think will limit the number of ship sets put out for SE V. In compareson, I will wager that SEV will have far less fan made ship sets than SEIV because of the change to 3d ship models.

Ah well, Aaron has said that SE5 will be able to handle 2D ship pics, they just won't look quite as pretty. Well, here's the new Terran Frigate, yup the same one that got us through the Earth-Venduu War. Course, unless you were a frequenter of the Galaxy of Fire BBS about 8-odd years ago, you've got no idea what I'm talking about. Which is cool, I'm used to it.

Not necessarily ALL Terran ships, just the escorts, since they are the first ships to be built

Well, compared to the big guys, that Escort IS pretty primitive. I've updated the pic, BTW, to the finished Version. And I'm afraid the reflectivity is here to stay, since these ships are based on the GoF Terran ships, which were well documented as being quite shiney.

On August 7th, 2359, a Venduu Cruiser entered the Proxima system and broadcasted the following message: "This system is now under the control of the Venduu Consortium. All planets, bases and ships are now Venduu property."
The Terran destroyer Achilles was on hand to broadcast an appropriate response.

I see they used two channels to ensure there was no misunderstanding. Very wise.

One Q... a while back, you mentioned the Terran-Tauran War. Would those Taurans perhaps resemble the Liberation Day Taurans?

(LibDay is an old strategy game. It's still fun.)
