TD Aquila dev thread 3
I know this has already seen the light of day in another thread but I'd like to get some feedback on it seperately, hence this thread - whilst I've still got my creative head on.

 

What does everyone think? I don't care if it's positive or negative - and yes I know it's up to me and it's my personal design, but I still want as much feedback of any kind as I can get. Many thanks

It looks really good  

Are you going to put it in FS2 or IW2 or..or not? (horror)

Eventually both (I hope), hence the relativly low poly count (or at least a poly count thats easy to lower).

It looks really good   Reminds me of an Orion with Added Armor Plating.

Yeah - thats the idea   except it's much bigger (5Km) and boasts runways on both sides of the ship (it's symetrical down the middle).

Cool; almost looks a bit like a mix of the Orion and Hecate...

Put a internal hanger on it, so when the mission starts you have to undock from the ship and fly down a short tunnel to get out the ship, mabye have a targeting laser to guide you out. The ship itself currently looks like a very good design.

Internal hanger? Hmm... could do - I'd better make sure I get the maps right on it though, since they can look kinda bad if you don't get it right.

BTW - any ideas for the top rear of it? I don't quiete know what to do with it yet so I'm open to suggestion...

More turrets?  An AWACS array?

It's 5K long, I didn't want to spoil the shape of the ship by adding turrets on this drawing, when the time comes I'll draw them in  

AWACs array... interesting...hmm...mobile base

Indeed - but I want to plan this thing down to the finest detail before I go further than drawing it (it's my baby, gotta do it right  )

Do you think? I kinda like them... but I'm open to suggestion...

Yeah, lose the wings unless they serve some purpose (solar arrays? sensor arrays?)

if you like them, keep them: but I suggest to make them smaller then, and arrow shaped, with the thiner part facing back maybe.
