    Loved the update vid. We need more Star Made content. It’s exactly the reason I started uploading as well. I haven’t had too much time looking at the new version of the ship but I’m liking what I’ve seen so far. Going on a short trip so I’m probably looking at this again when I’m back.

    As for the wings. The best way to handle it I think is to cut every distinctive part of the wing design in parts. Design each part separately but in a way that thy can connect to each other.

    Think of it as if the shipyard is building this ship and the wing comes in 3 sections and they have to weld it together.

    Can apply to other parts of the ship as well.

    Your vids comments are turned off by the way. You might want to look at that.

    I just changed youtube's settings to allow comment without review, it shoud be possible to do it now. I'll try out your suggestion for the wings, let's see where it brings me :)

    Love how the ship is coming out!
    Reminds me of the Andorian vessels from Star Trek



    As far as feedback;

    It might be possible to incorporate the existing red stripes on the hull, for the missile launchers, to thicken the strips
    Could also use a trapezoid profile to appear more aerodynamic/reduce bulkiness.

    No ideas stuck out to me for the nose section.
    Possibly a trench across the center like the above Andorian ship, with a deflector dish on the slope like below (left)?

    I'm not sure how well that would translate to StarMade however.


    Regardless, I always love seeing more StarMade content out there!

    Here some pics about my progress so far. Followed Penguin suggestion about the bottom and looking grate! Also satisfied with the front that still need some final touches. I came up with a solution for the wing that seems working, tell me what you think about it!
    Planning to release a second video when the bottom is done, won't be too long in my opinion!

    The wings & the bottom also are certainly looking much more polished!
    Also, the cap on the nose is a good idea, definately helps with the idea of the front being heavily armored.
