Blockiness aside, there are a LOT of accuracy problems with this ship. Attatched are some images I took from a simulation game of how a real containership looks.

Though not immediate apparent on first glance,  real containerships carry sockets on their exterior for navigation lights at night. Furthermore, the wings of your containership's bridge are overly large, your ship lacks any visible propulsion system, virtually all large modern ships have a feature known as a "bulbous bow", your containers are of no standard size that I know of (the pictured vessel has 8×40×8 foot container dimensions), and, lastly, containerships normally do not carry cranes! Cranes are features of docks, not vessels.

well thanks but i wasn't shooting for accuracy. the main goal is that if you look at it you think it is a cargo ship. I'm not tyring to replicate an existing one. but thanks for the reference pictures. i wasn't using any to start with XD.
RMS Gigantic:
And it shows.

Those features help make it look more like a container ship.

this post is to let you know that the theme has changed on badspots's server so the ship is not avalable for viewing at this time. i do have it saved and may show it off time to time on my own server.

thanks for reading and looking at my creation.
