... thinking on it, I haven't put anything in the Spaceships folder yet, and I need to give advance stream notice sooooo...
Destroyers form the backbone of Union fleet doctrine, largely due to the versatility, low maintenance costs, and ruggedness of the M3-R7 Meridian during the Baseline Fleet Initiative; though these vessels are now obsolete (largely due to a total lack of combat starfighter drones and a too light point defense grid), their ubiquity and design qualities mean they are still in active use in training units and patrol operations despite the age of the design.
The M5-R13 Axiom is one of two successors, a large, modern warship with an extremely heavy frontal barrage and a respectable drone capacity.
Anyway, due to piczel being weird the last few times I tried using it, this time I'll be going with picarto for the first time in a while to see if that'll work better.
As before, sketches will be starting at $25, plus 15 for each extra character; keep it to one sketch per stream please. Winners will be sorted by raffle.
I'll be starting in about 20 minutes. Feel free to join me here, I guess:

That is some cool design, some vague similarities to the Zentradi ships if I'm not mistaken, at least the M5-R13

yeah; the Zentran have been a big sci-fi inspiration for me for a long time

I have a question, I have been mostly using MSPaint to make my own ship designs because I've been relying on the shapes built into it. What tools/ resources did you use to make this? And what were your inspirations for its design?
Posted by Kiyoa 1 year ago Report
I work almost entirely in a program called Krita (though I've been expanding into blender recently as well)
as for the main sources of inspiration, as mention above the Zentraedi (from Macross) are pretty significant, but so are like a lot of more bulbous/"organic" looking space ships; I think there's also a strong element of Grineer Galleon (from Warframe) in the design of the Axion as well
the Meridians focus was more actual rockets and Flash Gordon and similar pulp...
also just a ton of Homeworld generally in my spacebotes
