    Holy crap! Could we get different angles of this thing?
    I'll share a few shots. I started this late last year. Had it up on the old site. Got quite a bit done and then the game updates at the beginning of the year really screwed up my framerates to basically unplayable levels. Kinda killed any enjoyment I had in the game. In the last month and a half or so I have really made a big effort to make this playable again because I really want to finish this ship. Between my efforts and Schema's updates I am back to a very playable framerate on my laptop so I am working towards finishing this up.

    Here's a gallery of some exterior screenies. I don't really want to show any interiors until its done. I hope that's sometime this year.

    I think I need to work on a engine design.
    Currently my ships only have flat lava engines, since its the TE standard.

    Here's a very very very early progress picture of the new engine I'm making for my ship:



    none the less, it's a big engine :P

    I think I through in the engines of my heavy frigate Loki.





    The engines are covered by blast doores when in the dry dock. When you start the thrusters first the blast doors get of and then in three steps the lights go on :D

    So many great designs ...

    Well they aren't fully finished yet but here are the new manoeuvrability thrusters of my carrier.


    And my first attempt for the main engines, not fully finished but it's a start.


    Hope you guys like them.
