Don't forget that ship sprites can be animated as well, and your implementation will need to account for all of that variability as well. A close study of how things collide, how existing hit effects are generated and placed, the performance cost of existing hit effects, and so on - all of this is necessary. Typically, when I went outside, I had to shield my eyes from the bright sunlight. This effect would then be rather small, colored in an appropriate manner lore-wise, and perhaps could be triggered in such a manner that it can be rotated to align with the ship's contour or some radial vector from the ships visual COM. One possibility I can think of would be to perhaps define a hit effect for ships the way one does for weapons.
For starters, in this issue all have been told it must not be a performance bottleneck, and it can't look tacky.
for unmanned drones the hull will include an integrated energy shield.

They're closed now, because no one volunteered their time to make it happen. If one peruses the issues/closed issue list, you'll note a lot of similar requests for shield indication.
