TEP Object Designs (Ships, Stations, Buildings):

(Please note that designs from the original Elite games are unlikely to be used for copyright reasons)

General comment: Try and keep them pretty, aerodynamic, or both. Bear in mind especially that given the advanced technologies of 3300AD (or 3800AD) there's simply no need for a ship to be hideous - one that works just as well and looks nice could probably be designed no hassle!

Some of these ships need to be 3Ded. Any help for those 'flat' ships would be appreciated by their creators, I'm sure. Here's a draft of a ship design guideline.

Finally, with the multitude of ships we are gathering, we can't expect every ship that is submitted to appear in the game... sorry... Now the ships!
