i am learning blender. and i have to say, its quite easy to use. sketchup is easier, that's for sure. a vase for example is easily made via a circle and drawing an outline and then follow me too.
sketchup operates around line drawing. you draw a ship.
blender operates around object manipulation. you dont draw a ship, you take a box, and manipulate it, engines are made by manipulating cyllinders, guns via boxes and cyllinders.
perhaps harder at first, but i see the possibilities

And just wait until you start learning about fluid and soft body animations and the game engine

and yes there will be weapons lots of them as think of this ship as a Battleship that can maintain repair and rearm several 304 size vessels
it can also act as a Base of operation in intergalactic mapping/exploring/conquering etc
Btw it also has an onboard Version of the SGC
Im putting alot of detail into this one.If you wish to see more of my rants, diatribes, and general comments, check out my Twitter account SirRyanR!

how big is it? I thought it was a nice design until i saw that a 304 was being used like a 302! Seems way too big, must be over 4 thousand M long maybe near 5 thousand as a 304 is about 630m long.
Without seeing the 304 would have been nice as a destroyer or a heavy cruiser, even a battleship.Last edited by Merlin1701; 14 August 2009, 10:18 PM.

I now your new so I won't rise to the previous post.
Atlantis is smaller than that from boberths calulations I think he put it around 4000m long, I will wait for somebody else to state it and I will also wait for 442 to direct you to the fanwank ship design thread.
Please remember that Gateworld is a site for everyone and nobody should create personal attacks. I have not reported your post as you are new to the forum however please remember that when posting designs here you will recieve comments from other members...good and bad. These comments are aimed to assist you improve your ship and future designs.
There are no rules to ship design but to avoid fanwank we use existing information from the show and information researched to create ship designs that fit within the stargate universe.Last edited by Merlin1701; 14 August 2009, 11:25 PM.
