I found an interesting site for my fellow artist to gaze upon.

Spaceships - My Passion

Also look up scratch modeling, its new to me so I figured it might be new to someone else. Its where modelers take everyday items around the house and use them to come up with cool and orginal designs.

just roughing out some ideas for the mothership, the idea is that everything is ran by controlled reverse blackholes, that deploy the fighters out and in.

i like the ship in the bottom right hand corner the most. i feel that it is the most unique out of the others you have drawn up. what might be cool is for the two "wings" that are sticking out would be to have them fold up along side the middle section, and then fold out to release small fighter ships

Nice link you have on your first post!

I like the first image you posted, the front view of the mothership. In your second picture though it was kind of disappointing. The first picture gave me pictures of a real sleek mothership, while the second picture made it big and cumbersome looking.

The offset circle(vertically) gave me the impression of a somewhat boxy version of the halo covenant dropship. The side view being curved, highest in the center. I'd recommend taking that front view and trying to get something like that, or just something to go with that front view. Of course, it's your project so you might want a totally different direction, which is totally cool.

Right I'll wait to say more as you develop it...so good luck!

yep, pretty good link. the top view of your mothership looks great, interesting and misterious, but the second sketch loose this rounded shapes.
