Progress has been made on my latest ship, I am still accepting mature name suggestions for it. The red circle marks the main weapon and the smaller green circles mark the Phalanx CIWS.

Are you going to give out the save to these?

Quite nice.

I have the flight deck on my next ship done, I am still open to criticism due to it being so early in development.
Please note that the back of the ship will be added so the area where the flight deck meets the ass-end will be extended and mooring lines.


10/10, and there's nothing else to say for me.

Still taking constructive criticism regarding my latest vessel.



I don't need to say anything. You seem to know what you're doing.

I want to point of that I know nothing about ships.
However, I find those two "pyramids" pretty strange.
And the back of the ship looks way wrong. But as I said, you shouldn't take my word.


Anyways, great.

Is the new ship supposed to have a deployable boat? Otherwise close up that back end with a slightly rounded aft hull.

Also I don't like the cannons (?) because they're so fat. Looks more like a minigun turret. Maybe shorten them and lengthen the barrel a stud or two?

This is epic, but you want a little crazy with the helm controls lol.

Yes it is, right now i'm in the process of thinking up an interesting and fast method of deploying the RIB. Thats why i've left the back open because i'm still un-sure if i'll have to screw with the structure of the ship to accommodate the rig.

The cannons i've been working on however all methods i've thought up makes my OCD hit the roof with the barrel having to be center. However i'll keep working on it.

Very nice.

The easiest way to fix up the cannon is to change the ramps to smaller ramps and close up the gaps.

IMO it would provide a more squat cannon-type design rather than a unusually tall one.


If you're going for minigun (or might eventually) then just lower the barrel portion a block or two. I'll try to get a picture of what I'm talking about sometime.
