[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] The Honorverse stuff seems very drama-queen from what fans have told me and the shp designs killed any interest. But are those really accurate to the descriptions in the novels? Nim, I'd love to see a design laid out with annotated notes from the novels explaining why it looks like someting other than an adult novelty. Can you maybe sketch up something? Artistic ability is secondary to accuracy here- just give us your notion of the ship's look. As to B5, I loved Kosh's ship- like a flower, but with purpose. I loved the Earthforce ships too.... but generally hated the Centauri's "look we're Napoleanic!" gag- their ships, their culture, their silly hair...ug. The Whitestar was pretty bad and the Rxcalibut was so pointless and silly that the script must have called for an "uber-fanboy" design. Which they still failed at miserably. The constructions ships on B5 were great (the modified Starfury design with arms) and the giant long-range exploration ship was very nicely done as well (forget it's name- it was huge and disappeared for years). It's something that's always bothered me about B5: we dont really know who designed what! With Trek, we can say "Andy Probery designed the Warbord" but with B5, we cant credit anyone? That's annoying. [/QB][/QUOTE]
