Ok, I did a "orthos" type thingie for the gunship. I'll create a size comparrission with the bship aswell.

Btw, in bottom view, is a slight(sp) update to the hanger bay. Only carriers a single shuttle tho. I have a more accurate lenght for the ship. its about 218 meters long.

Looks good. Like the Battleship..

Lord Erisu · 08-31-2006, 07:35 AM

Ok, I've done a "size" comparrison... only to realise that the battleship is 10x larger than the gunboat... I think I maybe should make it smaller. The PD turrets I did for this, are about the same size as the gunships large turrets... *gulp*

Duckytheinvincable · 08-31-2006, 02:31 PM

all depends on how much damage you want to create

that big cannon in the front is as big as the gunboat *give or take a fiew meters* shrink the ship down a little and see if it looks better.

Lord Erisu · 08-31-2006, 06:36 PM

heh, I didn't notice that till just now. But that one is gonna get redesigned. It does have a missile battery on the back of it. but I don't like it personally. Also need to redo the chain/gattling turrets on the gunboat... I don't like the base of that

.

lol i would nickname that oversized turret in the front "BOOM HEADSHOT" it actualy looks good in the front and yes a little 'maitinence' on it is needed. another thing you can double the size of the gunboat and keep what you got on the Battleship.

for the redesign gatt's, here are some photos of some:

or you can turn them into rapid fire rail guns, fire just as fast as gatt's and they look more 'futureistic'. something along the lines of this Japanese version of Hunchback from Battletech/Mechwarrior, it could also double as a flack cannon

Thank you for the links. It gave me the inspiration to do a search on google. And thus, I actually made a decent set of barrels for the turret. Just a shame I couldn't get the central bit to my liking. Wheres a viking??... heh, sorry for the bad rhyme there.

Ok, 3 and a bit new images. first two, showing the original turret, then the older turret. last two, showing the missile launch bay thingie, which will be undergoing a redesign... again. It changed about 3 or 4, maybe 5 times when I first started on it. Second image has better lighting so you can see the tubes.

Duckytheinvincable · 09-01-2006, 10:52 PM

the gatling rails look awsome, second one is real bad ass. the missile tubes look awsome too, try something like the Aegis missile destroyers have, vertical missile battery below deck and all you see on deck is a fiew red doors a couple meters wide, when you launch a missile, doors fly open and a hailstorm of missiles shower upon your enemies

keep the battery you got now though. mabe have a XLRMS (extra long range missile system) behind the bridge, just a small one of about 8 pods *laughs menacingly*

Okey Dokey. Ducky, you sort of gave me an idea for the missile launcher thing. So I've gone and done this. I've also included a view of the bridge... which is deffinately gonna be remade. I'm also going to add some "support-railings" here for personnel to access the tubes. I thinking that they're just going to be single shot tubes. Ohwell, C&C welcome
