    Pirate version of the giant donut:

    Complete with a self-destruct system and 'unpleasant suprises'.
    Also, for teh evulz, one of the buttons turns off the self-destruct sequence. The other, which is right next to it, blows up every dissie in the station.

    Are Hazard blocks considered rare?

    They are worth a bit but are abundant.

    I don't know.

    Did some tests with the giant space donut(GSD) and it's about equal to a cruiser. So in the unlikely event that it gets chosen, I would recomend making it quite rare.

    I can't let you have all the fun Skylord. So here is one of my current work in progress entries.




    Lost 3.5 hours of progress today thanks to a cache issue; thanks to Phant0m for helping me resurrect her. <3

    P.S. Your station makes me cry tears of joy.
    Damn, now that is legit

    Started work on my second station for the trading guild. Should be about 500 meters long tops. Basically a big maintenance hanger for larger ships, and a warehouse section in the back.



    One thing I am concerned about is size. It's going to need lots of detail work to make it look interesting. There's a large hanger entrance on the right and an "inner hanger" will be further. Lots of more interesting architecture on top that I haven't completed yet. It'll be all industrial inside when its done. Also layering the hull so that it can have seams.

    What do you think so far? I really need more info to go on.
    I decided to manipulate the style of existing bases and was thinking about attaching the base of it to an asteroid, since asteroid stations seem to be the new fad:
    overall, the top is still the "factory floor", but with an added respawn room on top.
    the middle part where the bridge spans is the "center" of the station and features a force-field protected faction block covered to make it look like a reactor (and I threw in a simple gravity circuit as well to help players that might tour the station or seek refuge).
    the 4 spires act as a combination of a weapons pylon and as a set of stairs. I might include a hangar or force-field protected space-dock on the bottom or sides of the eventual asteroid. (possibly an ice asteroid)
    weapons I plan as being a combination of "lasers", and cannons, all firing in blue.

    While all you fellows have been busy rushing your stations, me and Orphaniel have also been flexing our muscles quietly over a pirate station. It contains much red and cathedral-of-doom like interiors. It is far from finished though, and expect to see half-completed parts and other doodads.


    To all other competitors; Good luck, and I hope to see some more amazing builds :D

    Maybe start working on the interior of the Station? just a suggestion :)
    Interiors are for chumps :P. I am trying to get the exterior done and then will work on the interior. Although, I have finished pretty much all the outside at this point so I guess next I'll start the interior and add the roof and do the underside.

    So this is what I've got so far. I don't think I'll be able to finish the entire station in time, as I have school and can only work on weekends, but I think I'm quite happy with these results so far.
    Skylord, I took detailing inspiration from several of your builds, hope you don't mind :D
