Quite tough concepts, I shall say. But, although I really like the looks and I got no my own ideas, I have one question. Should automaton's ships really look so much like automatons themselves? Because it's like United Empire will build giant human-like robot torsos instead of spaceships.

They are more human than humans in some sense haha, just read the full lore

Thank you! You have done a great job yourself as well.

In fact the reason I'm posting a second line of ships is because I want (with my limited resources :P) to inspire if I can other people to share their thoughts and talent.

As you and some other guys in here have inspired me to give it a go.



And as I promised, here is the Dreadnought.

Thanks for these pics, they inspired in me an interesting idea. I just hope I have the time to do it! They look great by the way, especially the dread.

Well done vahouth, well done once again

This new line of ships looks a bit off from the style of ships of the other races. I'm not too sure how to explain it... haha it just seems... too different, you know?

Nice set of ships Vahouth

Alright so sadly I am going away and probably wont have internet access till march 3rd. So here are the other Automaton ship concepts i finalized.



We see a possible Cruiser and Battleship then a pencil rendition of a different Battleship design. Enjoy

Go away? But. But. It's your race D:

Believe me I'm really upset that my trip was scheduled for this week, but I can't do much about it. :/ I'm touched by your concern however, Thanks!

So you're not going to be part of the final voting and submissions? At least have fun on the trip then

Don't worry, we'll let you know how things turn out. Then we can all have a good cry about it later

The designs I submitted (The colored fleet of ships, as well as the finalized pen drawings above) should be considered as one submission by me So I am participating but indirectly haha

One Question/Suggestion why it have to be ONE Winner...okay the artbook cost some bugs but despite this...wouldnt it much more cooler to take the best Ship Designs for the perticular ship types ? (Corvet,Destroyer,Cruiser,Battleship, and Dreadnought) so we would have 5 Winners and only the best of the best Designs would be chosen for each Type besides this it would be a great (or even more) reflection of the the democratic structures of G2G.

Would be an idea.

But of think of this.

If only one person win, all the ship types fit together.

If five win, we have five different ships which may won't fit that good together. Would be patchwork or something like that.

I don't know how much more i can get done due to an the pressure put on by my School after our little break off of it. I will try to get some more drawings in and everything i have submitted can be considered as a whole. Apart from this, there are some really good designs that have been submitted since my last appearance. Nice designs.

My thoughts of an automaton ship would literally be a clutter of clocks and gears, sparks flying everywhere, and not symmetrical.

Greetings all, long time lurker and player of Endless Space here. I really wish I'd been more active around here, so I thought I'd throw my hat into the ring. I'm very interested in concept art thought spaceships aren't my forte. The main focus of my ship designs is all ships share a 'core', which houses the Automatons terraforming tech and plants, greenhouses and hydroponics for new worlds.

That's essentially how they've built the aesthetic of the automaton heroes. I hope they take that as a good basis and possibly throw their own theme into your concept, because it's good framework.

I like them! Good job!

Yeah, Mr-Haitch, you got some good concepts there, I like them
