    I recently started work on a project to, "Test my skills" when it comes to interior decoration, Layout and Design. This project is, of course a colony ship. And one of the largest in the starmade universe to boot!

    The idea behind the ship is a large vertical space boomerang. Civilian rooms will be going from the middle up and military rooms will occupy the bottom.

    So far i have completed two floors. The first of them being mainly civilian rooms. The second a massive hospital. here are overhead pictures of the two floors before roofs were added in!

    Floor One:

    That floor was mainly designed by me but in the top left and bottom left (mirrored) there is a room made by MrTargaryan

    Floor Two:

    This is floor two located directly above Floor One. This hospital known as "Red Phoenix" contains over 40 rooms each and every one dedicated to making sure nobody get's sick.

    Work on floor three has been started 6/12/14 and will hopefully be finished by 6/14/14
    Floor three is a reactor that will generate power for the top half of the colony ship.


    Floor Six

    Rooms Ideas and general stuff that you can help out with

    One of the problems with this colony is the sheer massive amount of unique rooms needed as well as various types of floors. You can help me out by submitting pictures, tips, Concept art or various other things in the comments below! If your idea is used you will be credited and thanked Alex -Out

    Now this looks good!
    I tried to make a colony ship, but i (obviously) failed.
    It looked bricky and interiors were ugly
    But it had some mining drones!

    You... are... crazy... (in a good way ;) ). Seriously, this is just insane.

    As for the mining drones, they'd be tied to industry, making the civilian. The scout/recon drones would be military, though.

    For the civilian rooms I suggest making a really big open space with all the rooms/malls/stuff surrounding and stacking around the area. Think a bit like the human cities in the matrix but without the gigantic pillar in the middle. I think that it would provide more breathing space for passengers and make them forget that they are on a spaceship a bit. The floor at the very bottom of the "community area hole thingy" could perhaps be a park with trees?

    That power is laid out so inefficiently...

    Be sure to make a map of this thing, cause otherwise you will get lost.
    Seriously though, this looks like it will be impressive.

    Dear people interested in the DWV colony ship:

    Work on the DWV colony ship will be resuming in 2 weeks. Work was paused due to a large downtime on trace.

    Thanks: AAlex

    This ship looks really nice, will you show a picture of the outside so we can get an idea of the size?
