Hello,
So i had this idea to work on shmup. Its grow and grow until one day i started moving idea from my head to reality. But started to struggle with getting ship sprite right.
At first attempt sprites was why to large.

second time i was almost happy but wanted to try again

so i started it from scratch. While i am tinkering with it hoped for some feedback

2nd try looks pretty good to me, anim-wise.
3rd looks good so far.
Since it looks like you're aiming for a radically different color scheme on the 3rd try but the design seems pretty similar other than the nose, IMO it wouldn't be cheating to rework the 2nd anim a bit, change the colors there, alter the design to be like the 3rd...
Maybe my fellow (hyper purist?) PXers think otherwise :lol:

I really like the ship design for the first one! You can really make out all the different parts and you can make out a depth to the model in motion! I don't like the color scheme on the second one though, it sort of blends together. I'm sure it'll look nice in motion though! What is this an animation of? How will it be used it game? I might experiment with moving the plane up and down a pixel while moving.

I prefer second one by far, it looks nice. Third one probably isn't finished, but I don't really like the way the "nose" part goes down. You could rework second one to change the colors maybe, since you nailed the basic structure :)
