Cheers guys, awwh... details? :/ ok, im working on it

[DTRoy]

I'd go for number 2.. the smallest one..
It looks the most interesting to me.. i like the way the shape looks a scope on a rifle..:P dont know if you did that on purpose but i makes it look like a weapon already..
besidea that i like those three big anti aircraft guns????? in the middle.. i prefer those then those smaller turrets..

I hate painting in Photoshop :/, so heres my crap attempt at a detailed concept, gunna have to add more detail to this beast tonight i think. Im not sure if its going the way i had planned, i wasnt sure whether it should be battleship grey/dark or a lighter colour?

Anyway, progress shot one:

Hmm, I was hoping detail would be a little more detailed.
I wouldnt bother with the shading, but instead more lines with details that are more important, like windows, plating, ports, logos, wiring, ventelation ect.

I suggest doing this with pencil for ease and do not add shading. Hope this helps, good luck!

[Grizzly3D]

Thanks a lot myles, ill come back a little later and post what i have

Cheers.

Thing to remember about space-cruiser-from-old-battleships: in space combat you can be attacked from all 6 sides, whereas sea combat was usually a 2-dimensional affair where attacks would only come from the front/rear or starboard/port. So your cruiser should be able to handle attacks from any side - all 4 sides + top and bottom.

concepts coming along nicely keep up the work.

I agree. Also came up to my mind while working on one of my concepts. The mothership must be filled with such turrents that may take enemies coming from all directions. The Turrent guns must be able to rotate 180 degreee while the base must rotate 360 degree.
