Excellent work, again.

I'd suggest two changes, though. One would be to lighten up the dark side of the ship, so that it looks more like the original. The second would be to sharpen the comet image.

it is a bit dark, isn't it..
I've checked it on one of the computers in the University, which have CRT monitors, and I must I value my LCD so much more Wink

I'll lighten it up a bit.

I think I've made a good effort on the details this time, I hope you're proud of me Vile Cheesy

*edit: brightness updated.

I'd suggest brightening up the shadow-side of the CHAOS bubbles too, on my CRT they look like crecent moons.

Yea, I use an LCD, too. You just can't go back once you've tasted some liquid crystal goodness. Smiley

The ship and ammo look much better now.

For the wary, here's a comparison between the in-game sprite (x5) and the sized-down remake of the icon.
If this ever sees the light of day (or, in other words, UQM will support these), I'll be sure to refine the touches from the original icon-size image.

Just letting everyone know I still live.  I got busy with college and my own projects...Sorry everyone who was looking forward to more new ships!

Either way, anything exciting happen in 2 1/2 months?

Welcome back! It would have been a shame if this project stalled out completely after having gone so far in such a short time.
