Better then I could EVER do.

9/10 Good job bro!

The bow of the craft has great curvature but the latter half of the hull is a rather boring tube. The bridge protruding from the top of the ship is not bad, but the turrets look really out-of-place and should be removed.

Yeah i have the same feelings about the turrets too. The ship is still very much under development as far as interior and changing those turrets are somewhere on my list as well.

Yes the turret design looks very much out of place and they don't seem to fit the round-ship theme.  Depending on what you want the ship to do or be for makes some features of the ship need changing.

As I had said in an earlier post, this ship could be used for a space battle.  If so then change the turrets to either AA turrets or more preferably a downsized version of the heavy turret, like using the vehiclescale event.  These turrets could then be coupled with setvehicleplayercontrol events so that one can enter control and exit control of the turrets easily without the need for actually entering the vehicle.  But if you don't want to use vehicle turrets then make a turret, have a button that does setplayercamera and then have another button you could press while in that view to fire in one direction.  Or use events that cause any weapons to fire by them selves at stuff that enters through a designated zone.

And I saw that there are doors on the sides of it to get into it.  Put unrendered bricks there so people could 'land' there and go into the ship, I guess.  So ya.

I also want to know if or when you have this build up on a server cause I would very much like to see it.

Exterior seems too...flat? (as in edges)
But nonetheless it's great.

The only flat part I see is the top of it, but if that's what you mean then ya, it looks too flat.  Maybe by adding a ridge down the middle could help with that. 

Yeah it was suppose to be completely round on top but then i wouldn't have a place for the turrets so.

Make it completely round.  Add some slightly more sloped bricks in grouped places.  Put turrets under there.  Like so in my attempt to draw the front and side of a hidden turret.

The circles are the cannons and the back in the second image is supposed to be more curved but couldn't do it with typing.

i "kinda" see what your saying. Also, i haven't posted the new images yet but the back has some stuff added to it and personally i think it looks much better. the top i am debating about. sure its going to be rounded out but different ways for the idea have been suggested.


You know you love it, major. that's why you came to my server :P

I think i saw this on your serverv and insulted it by calling it a worm xD.
It's good when you see the finished design.

hey yo; when, how often, and for how long is this ship build up on a server?

Depends on whether i get bored at nights. if i do, i will end up putting my server up for a few hours or so. Usually to work on it in public and let others build spaceships as well.

You should consider applying for a building clan :o
BAN does spaceships?

You'd most likely get in if you build another thats this good quality
