So, when searching for Science Fiction wallpaper backgrounds, I stumbled upon this:

Once seeing, I cannot unsee. I now want to scale it up a bit and make a 2-6k mass ship (somewhere in that range) that looks like this, and would preform the roll of a corvette. It may or may not be turned into a pirate afterwards. :P
Of course, this week being finals, and I myself having spent 18 of the last 30 or so hours working on a single project, you would need to give me a few days to finish up. But, I just wanted to make this post to see if anyone would be interested in helping me with the construction, and right now we (or I) can just kinda plan out what it will look like, and what I (or we) think the roles it should fill.
[DOUBLEPOST=1429570111,1429569055][/DOUBLEPOST]Thinking about this, I also realized that this might be a great idea on finding mid-sized spaceship concept art and making them into scaled up models that would make great midsize pirates- er ships. Great midsize starter ships. Ideally all the ships fall in the range of above 3k mass and below 10k mass, so it doesn't take that long to construct them, and the gathering of materials wouldn't take long either.
I am thinking of making 2 versions to each vessel, one for players and rp purposes, with a hanger, a bridge, and a storage area at the minimum, and defensive effects.
Then there would also be an AI version with, well, a bobby AI, and no defensive effects because AI can't use them :/
Ideally they would be docked to a mother-ship (2-6 of them) and be undocked during combat to serve as heavy AI drones that look good, are deadly, and would require less management than a swarm of hundreds of drones. (they can also be used as pirates)
Here are some examples that I found while just browsing while I waited for my dinner to cook:
We can weed out the ones we want, then put them in an order of what we want done first!
