I really like it tenacity :laugh:Looks like a corsiar ship, maybee GB apart from the green windows. What race are going to be using this? Human/nomad hybrids?
EDIT: oh its aki's ship, nevermind.

I'm really beginning to like the way it's developing at the moment... Although something might be done about the cockpit... Have in mind that aliens might be something entirely different and that they don't have and/or use same senses as us.

If I were you, I'd make it pink!
Disco needs pink ships!
Anyway, Jks.
Honest opinion: Black, Blue or Purple.

Erm, in your story, isnt the ship black?
Or is this meant to be a different ship to the one that attacked your carrier?
Edit: On second viewing, the ship just before you made it brown looks very nice, and pretty alien-ish.
Just one thing, if it is totally alien, would it use the same turrets and engine effects as sirian/nomad ships?

The one that attacked the carrier was a C'tan ship, this one is from the race fighting the c'tan empire.
Just becuase we're talking about aliens doesnt mean their technology has to be so much different than ours that it isnt recognizable - you'll notice that in most sci fi genres, alien technology, while it looks somewhat different, generally functions on the same premise as human technology.

It looks..very small to be fair.
The lack of any other body part than the engines and the bridge make it seem like a fighter to me.
Maybe a 'neck' on it? A properly pronounced one?
The Pakhet - Tenacity - 08-16-2009
hm... dont think i could add much without distorting it, but ill see how it goes.
Just dont want to make it much larger, or it kinda defeats the purpose of the ship... and if it does get too much larger, I'll have to add more turret hardpoints, which i have no room for right now.

*cough* Id like to announce i failed....
misread "Aki" as "Anki" thinking it was a replacement for the Anki Freighter.
Looks good but as others have said, it could use more even as a light cruiser.
and for spam content: Everyone has lost the game.
The Pakhet - Tenacity - 08-16-2009
Ok, here I've given the ship a 'neck'. Shots 1&2 show it with two extra turret hardpoints added on the neck portion, shots 3&4 show it without the hardpoints...

So it's a question of which looks better, and which would be better for ship balance. Eight turrets and lower manuverability, or six turrets and higher manuverability.

The neck is a great touch.
You need to do something different with the cockpit area, though. It just doesn't fit, in my opinion - not alien enough.
