Thanks for being appreciative. I personally hate the ship, it is probably the worst I've made since the D-series. | |

Your ship looks good, quit fishing for compliments. I'm not fishing, I genuinely don't like the ship. I have a lot of pride, granted, but I know when A build is bad, and that ship is bad. Well, maybe not bad, but it isn't as good as some of my others. | |

| Try building a ship with diagonal wings. They can give you the same depth as full wings but without the height. | |

Yeah, I might build small diagonal fins on my current cruiser. I'm liking my newest ship. I think I'm finally understanding how form works. The interior will be a pain, but at least I'll be able to live with it. | |

Me gusta. Could do with some enlargement, though Thanks. Do you mean the design could be enlarged, or the picture? Also, I added more pictures to my previous post. | |

| well it's not creepy I say, alien ships are creepy ... this one looks like part of a redstone stuff (due to the red thingies and the structure that looks like the wire columns in those creations) | |

Maybe Ban-hammer..? This would be a great design for ban-hammer but with 100 times bigger would be great and an interior. |

| Well, at least your enemies won´t know where the guns are since everything looks like it could start shooting anytime. | |

| If you want creepy, make it organic and not as clean-cut. I'd add a huge weapon on the front and maybe add some sort of "infected" look. | |

That's exactly what I did with the old Banhammer. I took a clone of the ship and, using a brush on MCedit, painted organic vine-like structures over the hull. It looked pretty cool, too. Anyway: thanks for all the praise guys. It really was just a study too see whether the design would be cool for a larger ship or not. I'll make another ship in a similar style that is twice the size. Those small ships always end up with funny multi-coloured interiors. | |

Or you could slowly add on to a core, like add 1 new section of the banhammer per night and after 2 months you have a super detailed 1 km ship | |
