EDIT: Damn you, i thought i was gonna look all cool and stuff...

On a more serious note, the weapons look a bit overdone... maybe make a few cutbacks?

[thekillman]

how is it gonna support the rest of the systems? half the ship is guns

[Dr Lee]

Now i've had a look..... yeah.... Far too many guns... If that was a remotely operated ship... maybe, but as it is now... to many guns

[locutes]

the ship is overarmed, nice design, but too much guns

[Alx]

Generic epic death pose

Spoiler:

Hows that?

[Experiment 442]

Too many guns, engines need to be more specific, power generation actually needs to be something powerful enough to power the ship. Needs a lot of fine tuning.

[Lt. Col. Mcoy]

Do you make the backdrops, Alx?

[Alx]

the backdrops are random google pics.

[Lt. Col. Mcoy]

Oh.

[Saquist]

Rigging is something i'm hoping to tackle before the end of the current GWMC....

Spoiler:

My first attempt at a Biped....Ever

Very good

Im still writing the history for it. This ship is ment to be a long range gun platform and fights along side its sister ship, the Heavy Battlecruiser VRSS Stargazer, with is a missile based platform. As for the engines, the ship can propel at around 30 knots with all four engines at 1%. Its maximum is just below Light Speed. Its ment to be overkill for an overkill era.
