so is the ship supposed to be in the 50000 limit?
All ships, for now, need to be. The only exception is the base that @neoshaf is building.
neoshaf Strange. Can you upload it onto a public site and give me the link or something like that?
xPLAYn Ok
xPLAYn yeah. the base is mindlessly massive. like,10,000,000 ish, my laptop is down to like, 20 fps 'when paused and I am planning and having one of my big ships docked with is. oh yeah, like 2,000 crew.
I know it's a tough limit. Believe me, I spent hours trying to make one of these ships.
Just keep in mind that these ships will not stay this way and that there are some creative liberties that can be taken with it as far as the shape goes, so don't worry a whole lot about the aesthetics of the design.
neoshaf So, I got that error message you were talking about. Try reloading the page and trying to upload the photo again.
xPLAYn home is the codename. the battleship I made's name was ''codename cutter'' and it stuck cause' it sounded cool. lol
neoshaf oh crap... the writing is too small on my ship. it said ''busted FTL diner'' and a funny no sign. ''no hookers, shootouts or facehuggers''
neoshaf Awesome base.
Also, no worries about the text. It most likely won't make it into the final hand-drawn version.
Additionally, what about calling it the Neon Orbiter?
xPLAYn the station or diner. OH here!
the neon orbiter---15,000 tons plus of fun! it comes with a diner, for all your meal needs, but don't order the soup special! (hello my honey hello my baby! no? spaceballs?) and a shopping mall that has everything you want! well if you want fire extinguishers! and the occasional penetration shell to the face! and well... a murderous governor
Here it is:
The Minikin
Perfect.
So, if you can, please save that ship for later, as the first few panels will just be exposition for now.
Okay, so ChtulhuFacehug is done for the comic.
Just a few more and I can begin putting all the assets together to create the comic (which will take me the longest amount of time out of the whole process, as that step also includes the text for the comic.
neoshaf Sweet!
Is it going to remain white, or do you want to paint it some absurd color scheme?
Maybe you could make it look rusty and old, or like a hodge-podge of a bunch of other parts?
xPLAYn hmm yeah! I think like a rusty in some parts and really damn in others. like, neon purple
neoshaf ill get started.
neoshaf Good idea.
could I see the drawing of my ship. I also could help with making cover art if you need it!
s36350 Sure, and thank you for the offer of the cover art, but I have already got plans for it.
I do appreciate the offer though!
