These are very nicely done!

Atolm, would I be able to get your permission to put this collection on my schematics site in the BSG section?

Colonial Battlestar concept:

Colonial "Blackstar" (basically a sensor-ship or AWACS vessel):



Colonial support-ship Spartus-Class:


Colonial Basestar Oroboros-Class (Yes i know I said Colonial... This was supposed to be a New Ship fielded by the colonials, but they couldn't figure out the drive systems and power costs to adequately operate the new design, so the Colonials abandoned the concept in favour for a newer Battlestar concept. Little did they know that the design that they relegated as a failure or impossibility, would in turn, show up on the battlefield of the Cylon uprising, as their ship design of choice):



Another Colonial Battlestar concept:

Some Cylon Concepts:

Another Cylon Basestar:

Concepts for my Cylon "Hound" :

Concept Armistice Raider(the wide one) and a Cylon Deep-space "probe" :

One of my favorites, Cylon "Seeker" (the idea for the Seekers, came about to create an elite group of Cylon "aces" that would co-operate in a squadron of 3, similar to the TOS Cylon Raider crew ... They would operate independently, and hunt down any rogue colonials that might have escaped the purge. the Squadron of 3 had enough firepower to hold down a Battlestar while waiting for the Basestars to arrive and finish the job. ):

Colonial Python-class Raider (again, yes I said "Colonial Raider". See again this goes to the concept that the Colonials had developed a 3-manned starfighter that was later adopted by the Cylons during the uprising, as the more famed Cylon Raider):


Colonial Star-Carrier, the first step to a Battlestar:

Colonial first generation Viper ancestor:

Welcome to the Fleets, Atolm!!

Outstanding work.

I'm partial to the Cylon Predator, myself. (Reminds me a wee bit of the Defiant in ST: DS9.)

Thanks mates!

Here are some Earth (AKA 13th Tribe/Colony) Cylons (which I call Kylons):
Kylon Stalker (Terran equivalent to the Cylon Raider)


Here is a Kylon Pilot (BTW the "hair" is in reality communication filaments that the Pilot uses to actually fly the ship)

This one's a Kylon Warrior:


Enjoy

Thank you very much!
Now to push my luck a wee bit.
Is there a front or rear view ?
Either or would be beyond fantastic.

The carrier appears to be bigger than a battlestar, I´m right? I believe she could carry big canons at her front and/or underside. Therefore it could make her more like a colonial fortress than a carrier. Show us more, please.
And... if you consider I´m not asking so much, would be cool to see other views to the battlestar Cetus too.

the First battlestar is not that large if you look at the finished pic, there is a Python-class Raider (the sketches are earlier in the thread)... Actually she is smaller than the Galactica I would say
as for the Cetus, I'll see what I can do

Zodiac-Class, Battlestar Cyrannia:

Brilliant design.
Looking to the bays (6?) and to that little fighter (I supose that it is) was what lead me to think she´s bigger than Galactica, for example.
