Whoa, nice..
However, I don't like the new "curveyness" of the.. err.. "blades" to the sides of the ship. They're very curvy, yet on the original it looks as if it's pretty much a straight line.. Same goes with the other stuff you've done with the ship, it's all a bit more curvy when compared with the original...

Don't mess with the US.

I decided to give it a try. So here is my own modest attempt:
The paint program I use (Paint.Net) starts screwing up when I zoom in so making the image look cleaner is hard.

What can we do for you...today?

Hey everyone,
Just wanted to apologize for my extended absence. Just got busy with some of my "real" work on my RPG and some ad-design stuff.
I'm really pleased to see it has progressed some in my absence. Umgah's pretty cool, Censored! And I happen to think the curvy Orz is nice. After all, they are aquatic...organic shapes should abound! I'm not a big fan of the changes to the gun, but we'll call it even for people who weren't happy with some of my changes >_>
And Halleck: ...I'll think about posting the Druuge...maybe... ;p I'll redo the list later, too.
Bio: Not a bad try on the Dreadnought! Especially if you've never done this sort of thing before.

Much better, though some parts (the fronts of the sidewings, for example) still look a bit paintyish....
I like the new colours, though.. The old dark colours looked a bit weird, especially with the gray "light" to the left..

I think wether these graphics make its way to the oficial game or not, it'd rock if a just-melee (that could have modifications/improvements/additions to add stuff, later on) hi res version of the game, was done...in this 2d hi res style.
just an small thing having 'only' melee stuff. I think there are some efforts already, just tend to have my cache memory flushed every 2 weeks..
Using the Adobe ps -or gimp, etc- trick with the lighting filter for keep rotations frames well shaded with a fixed light, you could have easily the hi res versions full frames. That counting on yet counting on 16 positions only. Well, doubling it to 32, as I suppose allways is done non destructive, rotate allways from original one, would not be so hard, specially as each author makes his frames, not a poor little buddy doing it all...
I think it'd rock specially have full graphic freedom for artists go wild.
Also as it'd be a short to make game in gfx terms: the melee ships and a bit of UI, and bang, a great evolved fan based bit, that could have some interesting additions to game play(melee, we speak only of that!), and graphic enhancement.
I have ended the game, now I'd like something like that, hehe.
Yep, I know. i should do some stuff for it too...I am allwasy sidetracked by $ projects, while this kind is which I'd love more.
This would not be excluding the possibility of adding to UQM, but would be no pressure then, and the gfx would have a sure destiny. Like a dual one.
