My first steps in ship building (gallery thread)

[FallenKnight]

You spent 3 hours to take the middle of the Crecy with some elongated engines on the butt and a Dunkirk for a head?

The way you said it looks simple. But what I did was far from it. I had to examine all 3 main ships of bretonia to get the parts I need for the carrier I was imagining in the process. I was tracking some fish images to further get inspiration for the model. Once all parts were accounted for then I had to combine, modify and fix them in order the new model to actually looks...nice at least. It is kit bash but removing parts and placing them randomly is not my goal.
So the whole model has 69 parts, which I had to fix separately due to glitches. Also bretonian ships are using 7 textures from which I took 5 and had to manually texture all 69 parts in order to make the final model looks close to other ships of the line, in terms of detail.
I don't know why you haven't said any feedback related to the model, while instead you dropped an invalid harassment.
(The head of the carrier is pre-dunkirk variant with missing armor and command bridge, consider it as MK1 dunkirk while current is MK3 of some sort - that's my imagination)

It also hasn't too much room for the snubs.

It looks like that but if you check the comparison "in front", you will notice how "fat" it is than the dunkirk.
Here an image with (6) Templar's docked at the hangars and (6) more inside. Presumably in reserve are additional 12 for up to 24, placed on upper levels.
