rapid fire. the ship is meant to be multi purpose, the jaffa version of the 304, jack of all trades

i'm not sure on your computer's memory, but i personally would add weapons as last. they take up tons of memory.

i'd add in greebling first

might be a good idea, since my computer is a bit slow, but i thought it would look better if i make the greebles around them, make them more intergrated.

i wouldnt worry about it if the weapons are components?
if so SU can handle it but save often just incase

of course they are components, i'm not gonna build every single one from scratch they're just basic blueprints atm, i'm gonna export them to a new file for detailing later on.

anyway, here's a render, from podium
