Wow! You definitely need to resize your pictures!

[Greyfox327]

Sorry, I'm new to this!

Sorry, I'm new to this!

That's quite all right. Here is a handy tutorial on re-sizing pics. There are several handy tutorials in the Website & Forums forum plus a tutorial index here. Thanks and welcome to Eurobricks. Please have fun. :-)

Is this better?

[ExoBuilder]

Is this better?

No it hasn't changed any, keep trying though, you'll get it!

[iamded]

Why? Are the pics to small? They look fine to me. Cool ship, it's very cubic, but that's not a bad thing! It actually looks like a pretty aerodynamic cube ship! :-D Very cool! *y*

[Dragonator]

Nice ship, it looks very great, I like the colours you have used, especially that trans-red canopy!

Keep the MOC's coming!

[LuxorV]

Neat ship *y* It would almost seem the cockpit is a detatchable fighter 8-

[zero1312]

Nice. It has a classic space feeling to it! :'-)

[Greyfox327]

Thank's. I didn't mean for it to be so blocky, it just turned out that way. Any ideas to make it better?

I quite like it the way it is, but you can always try and add some flaps on the sides, to give it a (seemingly) flatter and more aerodinamic shape.

Man you are gonna get chambeeered...

Spammy insults aren't tolerated here, this is for providing helpful and positive feedback. Greyfox, I suggest you ignore him. Your ship is great. *y*

Don't mind my cousin, he's just joking.

[Greyfox327]

Can anyone help me think of a name based on the look of the ship?

[Brickmaster]

Albeit its pretty good, but ill also help with some constructive critisizm, as in the overall look is very blocky and square, with a windsheild attatched, try to smooth it out some?

Along with the gaping hold in the cockpit - if its a space ship, this may be some trouble!

The turret seems slapped on - so im guessing it was :-D Better than no turret though.

As with the blockyness - the best way to smooth is out is to look at your main cockpit, and extend from there rather than going from the base of the ship to the cockpit, else you will have the protrusions you see here. If you want to smooth it out I would suggest adding some wings or something extending out forward, or use some snot to angle some peices. Goodluck with more building! *y*

It seems rather like a box with some starship components slapped on, with abit of flow in the ship that can be sorted out though.

I like this ship. It's a bit blocky, but there's just something about it... *wub*

Don't mind my cousin, he's just joking.

Still, the Admins don't know that, and even if they did, they still wouldn't like it. :-/

Don't double post- try editing it into the earlier post. :-)

I'd suggest Starfox partly because your name is Greyfox, partly because...You'll have to get back to me on that. X-D

[Greyfox327]

About the front, I don't have alot of white angled pieces so I had to use bricks. The turret was added on because it was on my old ship. I couldn't part with it! And about drummerboy, he wouldn't act like that to anyone else. He probably won't post for awhile anyway. And sorry about the re-post.

Hello DrummerBoy6593. I understand Greyfox may be your cousin, but we don't like to see this sort of thing as someone's first post. Especially if we know nothing about you yet. Maybe introduce yourself in the Hello, My name is... forum. Have fun while you're here, but let's keep the insults between you and your friends. I don't want to see this behavior anywhere else...Thanks.

Any more crap like this and i'll kick your megablocks out the door >:-(

This is just sad that your only posts were telling someone you hate their MOC. Keep doing this, and you'll get used to the chamber.

On anothe note, very intresting ship! It dosen't seem too blocky for me.

[Doctor Sinister]

It is a little blocky - but I actually think it's cool. Ever see the Nostromo from the original Alien film? That wasn't exactly aerodynamic - and this has the same kind of industrial, practical feel. In space, you don't need wings or stuff like that, and anti-grav' systems would allow lift without traditional surfaces.

In summary - I actually like it, I like the engine layout at the back, and the intakes around the front cockpit are cool. It's like an armed freighter - or even a troop transport or something.
