I've run into the problem of lack of knowledge on this one. Y'all know those silhouettes that FFG uses on their cards and tiles to help ID ships? How in the world are you guess making custom ones?

I haven't made any of mine yet, but I think a way to do it would be to take a screencap of an existing one, then go into paint or another basic editing software and make a silhouette of your ship by hand

Ok. That's what I thought. Thanks.

In the past ive taken a screenshot of a ship and played with contrast etc in gimp to get it.

edge detection then smoothen out the outline
