What if the glass cockpit is broken? You'll need a coffin.
If the man choosed not to have a glass cockpit, damn, respect his choice.

You'd think cockpits would have instead of glass...some kind of see-through alloy in the future.

Since when was I conventional with my designs :D

The UPL fighters don't have pretty little windows.

If you look closely, you'll find that most UPL capital ship designs don't have them either apart from recreation decks..well, UPL capships designed by the PGA anyway.

For the carrier, it should be long and sleek with a large forward hangar bay.  

Well..thats just the impression I got.

Battleship....a "lighter" looking dreadnought design?

yeah for the battleship, a sleeker dreadnought design. For the Carrier i was thinking of something..unconventional and something big.

I have sketched the Odin/Prometheus design. And if I had to pick one ship it resembled, I'd have to say the Typhon :p
Makes sense though, I'm far closer to the VI than the SL anyway.

Let's just say, it's not what you'd expect.

I fixed up a quick concept plan of a Tesser Carrier.



Dont not accurate, the ship should be symetrical and not wonky like in the picture. A and B should be of equal size and wevil, B in the top drawing is should be C! C and D arent the same size, as D is the main fighter storage section.

The vessel launches fighters like bullets out of a gun and its a very big ship. Its a very Tesser design with its ammo clip like parts :D.

Heres some more pics, this is just the very basic shape as the drawings might confuse a little.

This is an animation test for larger scenes.

I'm trying to get things done faster by splitting everything up into layers, tell me what you think.

I know the two beam frigates don't move very well plus the beam needs to be tweaked a little for this scene and the visual composition aint' brilliant etc.

More to follow when its not so hot here and i can actually breathe without breaking into a sweat.

Looking good - i'll have to elaborate somewhat but that'll depend on how I model it when I get around to that.

I'm currently working on the Sheol and Irae ships...with both of them at the just-been-started-learning-how-to-get-the-basic-shape-clean stage.

After I crack how to do one particular design its quite easy to model ships that look like it, but i've never tried a vasudan ship in high detail before so its taking me a while to work it all out properly.

Watch this space :)
