Spaceship

Selaznog

Hey guys, I really want to put a cool spaceship on my portfolio. Originally I was going to go off of a concept but then thought, why not try and design my own?

Here are some rough sketches. The dark areas are gribbly mechanical bits and pipes and stuff, light areas would be armour or main hull.

Not sure which direction I want to go (large carrier or small fighter jet?) so I thought I'd come here to see which way people think I should go.




Here's the colour scheme I'm thinking of:





Style will be realistic next gen...So, which concept should I polish/add to?

I like nr2. mMybe add 2 big solar panels to match the caterpillar, but i gues that not high tech.

roosterMAP

I like #2. But the the it ends is too blunt.

Dilkesy

I like #1 more than #2 but i think #2 is also very good

Oh boy, can't believe I'm posting this utter turd.


Hopefully I'll start modeling this soon!

Seems alright designwise, but I'd try to balance out a lot of the downward volume/lines with something of a tail at the back.

Hey, looks pretty cool! I'm looking forward to seeing where you go with the model.

If I had to say one thing about it, it would be that I liked these shapes in your original thumbnail:



But you didn't translate them to the new concept. Really I guess it's just a matter of personal preference, but I thought those pieces were cool looking.
