    Hello Everyone :)

    [​IMG]

    This is my very first attempt of making a (big) space ship.
    (I usually make arena's and bases.)
    I didn't really try to copy a Halo ship, it's just what a space ship would look like in my dimension :p.

    The ship is fully accessible, has weapons in the cargo hold, has 4 Shade Turrets to protect itself and four Falcons at your disposal.
    On the top floor (not the deck or the tower) there is a 'balcony' where an eventual captain can speech to its troops.

    A video shows all whats in and out:

    I don't really know what to say about this ship... I love the aesthetic portion, with the exception of the vertical "wings" (colliseum walls). The inside could DEFINITELY use some work. I don't know how much budget you had left, but most spaceships usually have some rooms; armory, cafeteria, barracks etc. overall 7/10

    For a first attempt at making a ship this is very good. However there are a few things that I feel detract from the ships aesthetics. One part I noticed is the wings that jut out at a 90 degree angle from the ship which give it a bit of a boxxy, clunky look. If they were even at a 45 degree angle it would make the whole ship look a lot better. The same goes for the wall coliseums you used at the end of the wings.

    The symmetry of the ship is very good however the whole ship is a bit of a regular shape, which is fine if that was what you were going for, its just in my eye things that are slightly irregular and have a different shape than what you'd expect look alot better. But that is made up for in the ships symmetry.

    decent

    The outside is good but the inside is crappy. I would recommend adding some enemy ship, ghosts, banshees, etc. OR make some power core thing you have to destroy from the outside and maybe the inside. Overall il give it a 5/10 (sorry i am a hard grader). Still good for a first ship

    Thanks everyone for the reply's ;)
    But the main reason I couldnt make the inside better is ofcourse the budget.
    Its all gone :p
    If Id had a bigger budget I'd had made another space ship (covenant) with banshees and I would have make the inside of both of them better
    (I hate the stationairy gun's room myself aswell.....)

    It looks good for a first try, but some may think it resembles a damaged/destroyed battlecruiser. Maybe you should build on this before scrapping it, because I can see the potential of a good cargo ship. You already have some cargo on it :)

    Good job! I like how you added a video. Also, try to fill in open spaces more. The outside looks great but maybe big ships aren't your thing. :)

    This looks great. I like how the inside is open, it leaves alot of room for making this compatable for gametypes. And i never did like the extremly small hallways in other space ships

    How much budget do you have left? I'd like to use this for a possible invasion. Possibly :p

    EDIT: never mind. i just saw one of your posts about the budget. (*sigh* sad face)
