My mission building skills are poor and I don't have much experience on ship and weapon tables etc. so it's very much one thing at a time!


Actually I'm quite glad that you realise the monumental task ahead of you if you want to make your own campaign (It's even worse if you want to do it singlehanded!)

As far as 'the FS2 Universe' goes, well...I am not too fussed about modelling ships that 'fit' the universe. I build the ships because I like them :D

Besides...Space, as the Hitch Hikers Guide tells us...is Big. That leaves plenty of room for other ship designs ;)

Ferrium certainly looks like an interesting project though. I would certainly have a go at making sme ships for it once it reaches a workable stage :D Especially if it allows turrets orientated other ways, more involved damage modelling and the possibility to properly launch fighters from a cap-ship. Than, of course, there is the need for 3D planets ;)

well ferrium is at such an early stage and the programmers are very open to the requests of the artists. its gonna be alot more versitile that the current freespace engine and will allow better turret placement for sure. the artist staff is not as big as id like. and there is always room for new ship designers.

You rock. :D

The ships are "okay", but I don't think they're especially good - I don't like the general style that much.

This one is the best of the lot:



Good modelling though. You should try your hand at some different designs :)

The shape and design has yet to grow on me but they all look great!
