I made a ship! (sort of)

Iain Baker:
Hi everyone!

A while back I had an idea for a heavy corvette / Frigate class cap ship. Due to my complete lack of drawing skills there was no way I could draw it, and most of the 3D modelling packages required more time and energy to learn than I had, so I ended up making it in Word. (Gotta love shapes, groups and being able flip and rotate stuff 😊)

Click here to see it: https://www.deviantart.com/nomadsreviews/art/UEF-GTVAFg-Heraklion-V2-807438967?ga_submit_new=10%3A1564332169

I have placed the description and rough images here in case anyone wants to take a look. If anyone feels like having a stab at actually making it please feel free 😊.

I took inspiration from many sources when making this. FS Blue Planet being the obvious one, but I also incorporated design elements from Homeworld (specifically the Taiidan Heavy Cruiser https://homeworld.fandom.com/wiki/Heavy_Cruiser_(Taiidan) and Vaygr Assault Frigate https://homeworld.fandom.com/wiki/Assault_Frigate_(Vaygr), Frontier Elite 2’s panther clipper http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Panther_Clipper and the Earth Force ships on the E.F.N.I. website: http://efni.org/Styx.htm. I also incorporated the outwardly cantered engine exhausts from The Last Starfighter’s Gunstar 1 http://www.meshweaver.com/last-starfighter-gunstar.html, as this would both improve agility and keep the engine wash away from its aft facing fighter bay.



Hope you all like it, and feel free to let me know what you think.

I applaud the creativity my friend, but uh, I think this was posted in the wrong forum section as you've technically not released an asset but rather provided a concept. A very nice concept btw.

Nightmare:
^That
Also, you probably want to put the doc somewhere else; you can't view it while not logged in.

Iain Baker:
Fair points all round. Where should it live then?

Re not being able to see it whilst not logged in - can it downloaded? I can download it but is that because I posted it?

Nightmare:
Ask a mod to move it to FS discussion.
