New Race: The Aikenian's

[Atrocities]

At this point the set is only as far as the concept stage. Whether or not I finish the race depends upon feed back. So post your opinions.

Pineapples!

They look good.

I like

Another organic race maybe?

[Atrocities]

Organic Pineapples in space. Well thats has to be a new concept to be sure.

I like, but the orange kind of clashes with the green and blue. Makes me think of a jester's hat.

hmmm, you want feedback on 8 ships,.. ok

1) Nice
2) I like how by adding frontal mass to the first you get a new ship design.
3) more mass and this ship looks it will be able to take a bit more punishment.
4) I really like how you think, each ship looks like a natural progression in design.
5) I don't know why but this design looks like it has more power.
6) Another nice tweak, this one looks fast and powerfull
7) I like how there is a center glow section, again, it looks like it either uses or generates more power.
8) The gloves are comming off, this design looks much more massive and therefore powerfull.

All in all, these ships have a very consistant look and might even be suitable for an organic race.

Bottom line I like these ships allot. Keep up the fantastic work AT.

Cheers!

Edit: AT once again we post 4 mins apart, first this morning and now. Did you get any sleep since then?

Thank you David. Sometimes I wish I could get what I see in my mind down on paper the way I see it. However most of the time all I get are glimps of great ideas and then spend a day working on a design that somewhat resembles what my minds eye saw. These ships are based on Vorlon design form B5.

Watching B5 I have come to realize that it is a series that is best watched one episode a week. If you watch them all in a row together over a short period of time the story becomes rushed and attaction that it had is lost.

I do love the ships in the series though. Some of the best looking ships ever. Especially the Starfury and thunderbolt fighters. God I just love those designs.
