Re: What Should I Make Now?
Visit sites that make masks or aliens. We can use more aliens. There are some great race portraits out there.
Load the WingDings font and type them all into a ray trace program. See what heppns when you add skins. Something might jump out as a cool ship
Maybe a kitchen appliance store. Add skins to those and see what they look like
a web site for "themes" might spur thoughts also.
Or something like the budk site (fancy knives, swords, etc). Some of the fantasy stuff looks like war ships

Re: What Should I Make Now?
The battlestar galactica website at scifi has a group of ships that could be used as models.

Re: What Should I Make Now?
NO part of me has faith that this concept will work. It's basically Star Wars Battlegrounds but with nicer graphics as far as I'm concerned.
Battlefront is weak, Jedi Academy was weak, Rebellion stunk, KOTOR II farted refried beans at the end...
It would seem the George Lucas syndrome of mediocre creativity has rubbed off on everyone else. I haven't been happy with a SW game except for KOTOR.

Either nobody caught that little bit of Narf-wit, or no one else thought it was funny.
I found it extremely humorous.

Re: What Should I Make Now?
A BSG set huh? That would be kinda cool to have a few variations on the Battlestars. But what would a battlestar be? A carrier or a dreadnought? Since all BSG ships seem to be carrier based ships, what would carriers look like? See my dilima. The Galactica would most likely have to be a carrier or at least a battleship. But ships before her may or may not have flight decks. Its the whole flight deck thing that has be confused.
And the cylons, what the hell can we do there? My mind just hits a futhering wall on that one. I will try to breech it, but no promesis.

Re: What Should I Make Now?
BSG shipset would be fairly easy, battlestar: Heavy Carrier.
Carrier: Similar to battlestar only with the hanger deck a part of the main hull, the main hull would be shorter.
Light carrier: Single deck right down the center with engines on either side.
For the escort - dreadnought, similar designe just replace the hanger decks with weapons pods of some sort.
