Starships!
🕑 Added 2024-07-31 11:34:20 +0000 UTCMy tier$25 voted to work on starship designs!
Most of the designs here are revolving around a few versions of a small 5-12 crew frigate...the primary ship that the main characters will use for the sci-fi story. It went through a number of versions (indicated by the V1-5 next to drawings across the pages) and overall, I like the later ones more, but may rework some earlier ones into diffrerent designs.
This was a challenge and took me several days to shift gears from furry characters to hard scifi stuff, but it was fun! I'm not an expert in starship design (yet) so i'm playing around..but something with strong overall silhouettes and shapes will leave a lasting impression, like a good scifi ship should. Still working!

i'm an amateur starship designer. i'm working on floor plans for a sianian ship along with my polish friend who's making a 3D turntable. i can't wait to show you the end-result, but it will be a while

Why Thank you ARA. I'm hard at work making it the biggest most detailed 4K map.

that top-view of V4 look rly nice

This is the stuff I love to see, and I love the style these ships are going for!

0.0 Loving the designs dude!

I am so here for this. These rule. :D

These are all neat designs, it's fun to see you shift gears into hard sci-fi art like this

Phenomenal work! Definitely captured more militaristic/technical themes well. Gonna need blueprints of every damn class once SoS kicks off.

Awesome design Fluff! Seems kinda crazy for a frigate to only have a crew of 5-12...then again I'm assuming ARA and similar anthroids can probably handle a lot of things you need crew for. Can't wait to see more!

These are all Soo coool!

Damn, nice!

Hm? I'd like to see this!

Oo! I actually can’t remember the last time I saw a potential Katilag starship design by you. If I try running my design with the hole through the middle by you again, I’d factor in these ships into its redesign.

Going with a standard naval classification for each of these? Will you have dimensions for them?
Silvador
coooool!

In all seriousness, good job with the designs. They all look really good for smaller vessels, I can't wait to see a capital ship
sergeant_0ddball
Hmm, I think that I need to see them next to Space Battleship Yamato for a good comparison...

V4 is the best one to me! The ones with a clear "windshield" are cooler but i have a hard time picturing 12 ppl crammed into there hehehe

Cool. I like the triangular design similar to my Grand Navy vessels. The important thing concerning hard sci-fi spaceship design is the amount of surface area exposed when going even 1% the speed of light. Space is not a complete vacuum and a grain sized piece of zircon flying at your hull at any significant speed comparable to light will have the energy equivalence of nuclear bombs. 4.6 × 10¹³ J or 11 kt TNT, Relativistic weapon: 1 gram at 75% c. For morbid reference since it's next on the Atomic Rockets boom table, at 15 kt was the Little Boy bomb dropped on Hiroshima. Space travel is deadly. Also, apologies Fluff for the delay on the Serko map. I've been going through intense spinal recovery on top of medical issues but I'm healing. Anyway, I've shaped the continents accurately, now I'm detailing the coastline.

oh THERES my starship fascination returning to the light, cuz holy hell those are magnificent

V2 gave me cowboy bebop vibes. Very nicely done
Vizelius
WOOOOWW! This very cool! I like the V5A the most
Frost
Also, I really like V4 and V5 Damn they look cool
Frost
Bulkhead(s), use a lot of them. That's one of the biggest things for designing them
ARA
Oooooaah!~
WaywardPossum
Hell yes

That's some fine starship design :)
