Angel Works Shipwright

[Captain Tankman]

Yeah I know. I tried with the three engines, but it just didn't looked right to me:

Spoiler: WIP picture with the 3 engines

However I'm not saying the Alesia is total replica from the movie. I think of it more as a heavy-much-inspired-by ship. Especialy if you look at the mid-section behind the second airlocks. Its absolutly not like the original Alesia's but more of a thing I tought would look nice

Anyway thanks for the feedback

You're welcome. By the way, the turrets ripped my wildly maneuvering Viper Mk. II (which I haven't updated yet, GOD it used to be an absolute menace in pirate spawns) to shreds.

The teasered ship is currently on ice. I made a damaged and patched version of my old Nidhogg fo Bench's Smugglers Cove station. I don't know if hes going to use it, but anyway here is a pic of it:

And another thing I'd like to say:
I've started this week with university so I won't be much online (especialy on SATURN) because I don't have much time or rather I'd spent the spare time I have on other things mainly.

The Captain is back in business! At least I try to get back in the game, so don't expect much but a few ships here and there.
I wanna start off with a little carrier thingy. No weapons or so on it, just basic systems and the main hull:

I guess this won't be a masterpiece, its more like practise to get back to the game and ship systems and stuff.


Feels good to be back here

Really like your style. Especially this ship, any chance it will ever see the light of day even as just a hull? Also didnt know there was someone else here with a similar name for their shipyard, though I see you were here first, great minds think alike

 

[Captain Tankman]

Well I wasn't active here since last september, so its not surprising that you never heard of me and my shipyard :D

Too bad with that ship. It was on the SATURN server which closed earlier this year and I don't have other screenshots of it. But I could try and rebuild it as far as I remember it

Ah that is too bad, thats why I always try to back up my work if I play on a server. Id be interested in aquiring it even as an empty shell as it looks like a perfect fit for one of my Angel projects, better yet let me know If you want to work on a collaborative project.

 

[Captain Tankman]

Update time! :D

And size comparision with the Alesia Class

Features:
-4 missile tubes (haven't decided yet on what kind of missiles I wann use)
-jump drive
-dockingports for 4 small fighters
-turret dockingports


I'm pretty satisfied with the overall look by now, but adding some more details in never wrong

 

[Captain Tankman]

And it is done... I still didn't come up with a good name but it's done.
Armed with with 4 rapid-fire missile tubes, 14 low-dmg guided missiles and 10 guided missile turrets.
It also comes with two small Defender MK3 fighters.

So anybody got a decent idea for a name for this beauty? :D

Cheers for looking

 

[Captain Tankman]

Whoop whoop! A whole shipload of ... ships... gotta work on my puns.

Lets start of with a yacht:

Spoiler: more pics

Spoiler: And a racing version of it

Next one is the "Dragonfly". It's an quite old ship with RP in mind that was only half way done. But now it's fully finished and ready to go:

Spoiler: more pics

My current project is the biggest ship I've ever tried to build. It's going to be a full sized carrier, that will be around 800m long:

cya in the 'verse!

 

[t3xx3r]

That is some really nice work!

I like your space station.

 

[Captain Tankman]

Hey folks. With the rail update I wanted to hop into the game once again (guess this time it's only for a few days as always :D )

Anyway I'm replacing the turrets on the Alesia starting with the main beam turrets:

Missile turrets:

Point-Defense turrets:

 

[Captain Tankman]

yay more rail related stuff :D I've made a scout/fighter with an cool tranformation, the Omega MK2:

Spoiler

The whole cockpit section rotates around the pilotseat

*I have no idea why I can't make proper .gifs :/

 

[Reilly Reese]

Sweet

 

[Captain Tankman]

Thanks :D


I continued with the construction of my carrier. 770m long by now:

Spoiler

As you can see it's just a basic hull layout by now.

 

[Captain Tankman]

another quick update.
I'm trying to add the major design aspects to get a better overall feel for that beast:

Spoiler: engines and hangar

Btw. I'd appreciate if anyone is willing to build fitting fighters for it

 

[Captain Tankman]

Fighter time! yay! :D

This fighter (nicknamed 'jellyfish') is designed to be stationed on my carrier (once it's finished)

Access to the cockpit via a hatch under the support turret:

Srsly, I play starmade with 250+ fps and when I record gifs it drops down to 2-3 fps. What's wrong? D:

I continued the work on the carrier.
