Instantly became a fan of your Lobsterstrange Racer, such a cool, unique ship! Did some work on it, maybe you'll like to see. Blueprint attached to this post.

Oh wow. Thank you so much!
I had completely forgot this thread from 2017 existed

I was planning on eventually updating the ship myself eventually. So I think its better if the fork is uploaded separately.
Its not like there's too much activity on the community content recently, so I don't think anyone minds having more space lobster.
I'll check it out tonight. Its a great hull, so it deserves a worthy interior to go with it.

The lobsterstrange also has a sister ship. I was really excited to get to build this one, which is partly why Lobsterstrange was so barebones inside.

Spoiler: teaser screenshots

Checked out your interior and the layout is miles better.
The only thing i didn't like as much were the thruster color change from white to cyan, but overall the ship's been improved greatly.

Phenomenal build!

The head reminds of a xenomorph, which makes it even cooler than a lobster

The purple accents go so well with the orange and beige, never seen that combo. (Or is that blue? It ought to be purple.)

Wow, I really love the organic flow of this ship! It's kinda hard to explain but this gives strong Sangheili vibes, as if this is the kind of ship they would build were they not under the thumb of the Covenant.

Here's another ship i've been working on.
I'm struggling to find a name for it though

I was hoping to show some videos of the logic working but unfortunately this site doesn't accept discord links as valid media urls.

Started a side project
a highly asymmetrical light carrier. Something to distract me from my escort destroyer competition ship

What sorcery is this?

 

[colonel lacu]

some more cockpits from unreleased ships

What sorcery is this?

well the ship is called "The sorcerer", so obviously its gotta have at least a little sorcery. Also, its had a lot of progress, mostly inside.

Spoiler: Pictures

Still no doors unfortunately

presumably turret reset shenanigans, the easiest way to clip blocks into each other
