the Freighter is a scale model. I'm still trying to figure out a scale for each block, maybe 1 block = 5 blocks on all axis?
It's hard to scale up, as I used slabs for construction.

Ah, I thought this might be what you were doing. In that case, it has a nice shape. I think you should figure out what size container you want as your standard, and then base the rest of the build around that.

Now why didn't I think of that before? That's brilliant, thanks. :D

NEW PICS AND INFO: Merithian Stealth Fighter
Darlopian Aerial Drone (D.A.D.)

The drone is for defense and mainly attacks either other drones (Enemies, of course) and enemy fighter planes. Either manually controlled or automatically piloted. tell me if that look is good or not, because I like building with slabs a lot. think that might become my trademark thing, basing most of the spaceship on the off-blocks.##

And the Stealth Fighter is crap.

Like you said, the drone looks pretty good, and the stealth fighter needs improvement.

cool, thanks. See, the Stealth Fighter was really an experiment on what materials I should prefer to use in construction on my later, larger builds. I tried obsidian with that one and I much rather Slabs Architecture to Obsidian blocks. I Knew I could improve the fighter, but I gave up and wrote it off as "function over looks"

The Sooth Tank is now under construction at the Forden Factories. The current vehicle looks like this:

[url=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/715/20130127201329.png/]Image[/url]

NOTE, Expect some big-a** turrets on it when it's done.

EDIT: The Sooth Tank is now completed, and the pictures will be uploaded around 5 tomorrow. (GMT)

So to keep you going (yeah, like anyone's looking forward to something nowhere near as big as anyone else's tanks) I'll show you one of the turrets used on the Tank, the MF-P (Poly-Oxygen) Medium Turret.

MF-P (Poly-Oxygen) Medium Turret:
Spoiler:
The RaidusTech Multi-Firing Poly-Oxygen Medium Turret, or MF-P Variant Turret. This turret is a medium speed automatic firing turret and is used on both large ground and large space units. the Poly-Oxygen variant uses bullets containing compressed Poly-Oxygen so that when the bullets hit the target, contact with a high concentration of Poly-Oxygen will cause the part of the enemy's vehicle to rapidly poly-oxidize and rust. This effect had been proven to work on all metals known to the Raiders and therefore making them very valuable.

View of the Back, Angled:

This info will be put onto the main page in a new sub-section as well tomorrow.

As always, please comment on my stuff and I love getting criticism, don't worry :)

Thanks.

I'm now working on a new ship, the Dragon Class Carrier. It's gonna use Battlestar Runways and Battlestar launch tubes but a different design to a battlestar (As in Galactica, duh).

I've finished the first runway, it's got Pegasus style runways in the idea that there are two on each side. (one underneath the other, the underneath one being upside down)

I'd like to comment on your carrier, but I can't see it. Is there any chance you could take larger pictures?

Yeah, at that point that's all I had built. I will update the pictures when I finish the main body piece.

I'm back! I haven't been on my laptop for a while, so there has been (Sadly) no progress made whatsoever. I am going to get the "Dragon Class U.A.R.C. Cobolt" finished A.S.A.P!

In the mean time, I'm going to make some of the other smaller projects to keep me from getting bored and to get this topic back up. I'm also going to post on my story of my people in the Role-play section, so please check that out as well. the next part of the story is going to be the start of the interesting part of the story.

Thanks, Ra1derzDr1verz

EDIT: Ps. I just read the results of the poll... yay, biggest ship first. Guess who's installing MCedit this afternoon??? Also, I will get new pics up later today.

I think I messed it up, I'll fix that now. Thanks for pointing it out.

EDIT: For the sake of the Ancients, "Beyonce Class" is a joke, please don't vote for it.
