Considering the numerous warships in the Battletech world, the rare if ever thing that is not shown is a decent heavy space battle.

So I whipped this up.

One of House Liao's worlds is under attack - however they have no idea the scale of the enemy and despite what they see, the Capellans go in by sending loads of Thrushes, Transits, and Ahabs as well as a few warships and small vessels of their own.

The invading Warships are a Lola 3 Class Destroyer, an Aegis Class Heavy Cruiser, a Sovetskii Soyuz Class Heavy Cruiser, and that big beast is a Mckenna Class Battleship. All these ships are throwing Barracuda, Kracken, and Killer Whale missiles with the back up firepower of Naval lasers and cannons.

Surrounding them are loads of dropships and more fighters than you would see in Star Wars!

This was just an experiment to see how I could do a space battle scene with lots involved; blasts, debris, blur effects, glares, and such.

Enjoy! :)

This is a great pic, as been said, a very underused part of Battletech. *makes this desktop wallpaper*

For an experiment, I think it turned out rather well!
I'm really liking all the detail here, but make sure to prevent it from becoming cluttered.

The light source and horizon, however, offset this really well, drawing the eye around
the pic as an entirety.

That's all the criticism I can offer. Otherwise, you've come a long way with this.
Cheers! :D

Cheers! No no, be always honest! After all, the spectator sees more than the player. I like the factor about the sun, and yer right! Its does make you look around subconciously. That is an excellent point and one I am taking with me!

Yes, clutter is my crime, one I am trying to fix.

Thank you very much for this important feedback!
