Request: Bretonian Carrier Remodel - BAF Admiralty Board - 06-14-2016

That is the current model. As you can notice, it is not finished. Some people say it is just a large Dunkirk and needs a completely new model.
The BAF would like to see new model/remodel examples here. I should mention that the ship was made quickly and with little resources to spare, sometimes even using the stuff behind Southampton. Gold is not among those resources due to Dublin, hence the golden ornaments.
You are free to make the ship a bit asymmetrical, but we like its current general shape and turret arcs, so that should stay.
PS: As a bonus, it would be nice if we also had some concept of a lighter variant of the Bretonian VHF, like the Guardian, the Wraith, the Bastet Mk 2, the Rabisu, the Greyhound and the Gladiator(?). I don't think that the Templar is a bad ship, although I've been told so by many people, as I've also been told the opposite by some other people who fly fighters well. Still, it would be nice to have a model ready in case someone thinks it would be cool and useful to add it.
Latest version of the carrier (work in progress):

I may give it a try, however, I cannot assure you that it will have the quality you want.

No worries, at worst you'll gain some experience.

Discarded the previous ones and made a new one

Some tweaks needed here and there still.

Soul has my approval (if it actually mean anything ever...)
RE: Request: Bretonian Carrier Remodel - Thunderer - 06-22-2016
Fast and furious. Only needs some refinement of edges and good textures. Since Soul's finding it harder to texture Bretonian ships than any other, is anyone else up to the task?

Please try and avoid "Banana" shapes. The point of mass of this model is likely in mid-space or near it. Even with a correctly positioned crosshair (as in, not like the old AI Cruiser's) this ship will likely be strangely hard to hit for its size, which is a characteristic I would rather avoid (one Crecy in the Bretonian shipline is bad enough).
On a different note, I would suggest going for something larger (or at least, less compact) than the Templar, if you desire a faster dueling VHF. "Small and agile" is a recipe for an imbalanced ship. Medium-large ships that are agile can be perfectly competitive, however.

The current carrier already has it and it's still a shot magnet from the side. It's simply too big and turns too slowly. Plus, the crosshair can be moved upper into the "shell" section if anyone thinks the shape will have any influence.
PS: Additionally, the carrier can only fire half of its armament to the side, so if you really want to trade half of your firepower for being a bit harder to hit (if you were, that is), do it.
PS2: I agree with your advice about the VHF.

To the Carrier I personally think the engines should have some kind of armor they look fragile as they are now. But thats a detail, overall i like the style of it.

Medium-large ships that are agile can be perfectly competitive, however.I think it doesnt need to be small, just be able to keep up with the fighters BAF mostly fights. We dont face slow fighters, but Lynxes, Chamelions, Odins, Greyhounds and Centurions.
Our opponents are well aware that the Tamplar is strong in armor buy you can fly circles around it with lighter fighters. So an alternate fighter would be very welcome.

Hitbox center is adjustable.
