This is my third big project and it is going to take weeks (maybe months) to finish it.
It is 1200m long and I pretty much finished the most basic shape. The length and height proportions are good but unfortunately the width seems too small, atleast according to the wiki. Don't be mistaken though, the ship looks like the real deal but for some reason the width doesn't seem to be accurate...
Since it's going to be a full scale ship, I made some full scale stuff too
- 2 mac guns of about 700m long that look like the ones on orbital platforms.
- 1:1 scale pelicans with warthogs docked at the back, still wondering how many i'll dock inside the ship.
- 1:1 scale longswords, here is the problem though, in halo 2 and 3 and everything after that the longswords were scaled down to like 30m long, but in reality they are 70m long so they look a lot bigger than I originally thought...I managed to find a dock where I could fly them in and I might dock 6 or 9 of them in it but not 24 like the lore says so. I might scale them down to like 60m width instead of the 70+.
-Turrets! Turrets everywhere. The point defense turrets are normally not visible but I made them anyway, they are not that fancy but there numbers will make up for that. No pics yet because I forgot to blueprint it and the server is still down.
-Interior: I want it, and It's going to take a while. Most interior will be hangars and a decent reactor + engine room.
Keep in mind that this is made on a server and since that one is offline/broken atm I can't work on it

I already made 2 other projects, some kind of a warm-up for the big one and I want some advice, like what features you like (and don't like) + features you want to see in this ship, like a huge reactor room.

PS: I made a skeleton of the Normandy SR2 once and a lot of progress on it has been lost due to a server reset, I don't want to rebuild it anymore so if anyone else wants to have it, just ask (can't remember the specs but it was above 300m long, so around a scale of 3:1 because I wanted to fit the real interior in it)
