I'm looking for a little input on the cannon at the front of the nose. The diameter will fill the gap at the front it's about 4mm wide. I can't decide if i want the barrel to stick out farthur then the nose, or to be to the edge of the nose, or almost the edge. Anyone have any thoughts or insights?

Thanks,
Blind-

I made more progress on this monster, the nose is turning out to be a pretty big piece. That was expected as the last ship i created was thinner in the middle and heavier on either end. I added ribbing along the edges of the nose top and bottom, did some straps on the lower one i had in the image. Added some pillar/window style on the middle, they are different and alternate hard to see because it's white. I added a generator on the bottom of the nose. Last couple things i have left before i can finish with this and move to the engines is, complete the top of the ship, make the cannon, and extend the rear of the ship back 3mm to make it sit flush with the center section.

As i know when i watch a wip i really do like lots of pics on progression, you can learn a lot from pics. So i decided to snap a bunch as i go and put them up so people can see this item grow.

Update! Finished the nose, flushed it to the body. Finished the cannon out the front of the nose, i will still be making a piece that has torp holes. Did a mock up with the antenna turrets, broadside cannons, and launch bays. C&C welcome and encouraged!

We shall see about that Gun-wun.

Been working on the rear engine area. Starting some of the detail on the lower half, already aborted 1 upper and bridge, it just didn't look right. I think this beast is coming together nicely, i really started slowing down as i hit the rear part but i'm still pluggin away at this. I added the launch bay and energy turrets in this picture. The ship is right about 10.5cm long which is one cm longer then a standard imperial cruiser, so it should fit in nicely. C&C welcome and encouraged.

I think the engine section needs some lateral girth.

After some serious creators block on this project i've made some progress. The bridge section was an issue, if you look at the picture i had no idea what i was going to do.

Blue tac was holding it together, not very well might i add so sorry about the poor picture quality. Ive created the main outline of everything i am no adding in the detail, the bridge window and secondary bridge window is complete, i've also started some detail on the cooling fin on the rear.

C&C welcome.

thanks,

Here is some added detail to the bridge section, i'm not sure where to go from here though. I added some small turrets and extended the lower bridges bottom part .

Wanted to do a quick mockup and side by side. I put lance turrets and launch bays on the sides for this.

Did some detail passes on the bridge, actually quite a bit for the bridge. Did some added detailing to other bland and flat areas of the engine section, i think some of it came out okay other parts very good.
