Lots of ship sketches at this thread
« on: July 08, 2007, 06:54:41 pm »
Hi all, I've joined another forum and discovered a thread where their own version of Atolm posts his sketches. There are some really cool ship designs there, though not as out of the box as our own dear Atolm's are. :D

So go here and have a look if you are jonesing for some new ships to build. Better renember to ask his permission before releasing, though. He seems interested in having his 3D perspective drawings made solid though.

Many of his designs are not very original, many have that anime spaceship feel. Also one looks like a power boat, his Presidio runabout is nothing more then a scaled down Defiant, another is easily a rip-off of a design done a few years back by the author of the States Class. I'm not keen on the name but his Wayfinder Scout and Scythe Interceptor both show some promise as does he. But that's just my opinion. I think the key to a good design is to at least have elements of the RACE it's intended for. His Gorn and Doms would never be recognized as such. Thank goodness we have Azel's mind to pick  :).
