Really nice, detailed, nasty looking ship, Shipbuilder. It's cruising my Ooniverse, Technical details are incredible. Should meet the approval of Rese249er, as he is the technical expert on ship building in this group.

Sorry. Really nice job, though. :D

Thanks Mandoman the nasty look was what i was looking for and I think that it looks more aggressive from the underside.

This one took a while to texture but I did get to play test the ship for a while also :D

I have also posted a Wiki page for this ship with some more information - if you are interested take a look at the link in my signature strip.

Oh and keep building the ships :wink:

It wasn't as hard as I thought that it would be. I found what I thought was a good example of a Wiki page for a ship oxp and basically copy and pasted it then inserted my content using the original pasted page as a template.
