Superheavy model design ideas (open for suggestions and images)

[Enkidu]

I've decided I'm going to take a crack at modelling a Unioner superheavy fighter (no guarantees anything approvable will come out of it, of course). I wanted to democratise the process a little. Please submit design ideas below in the replies section, and I'll try to model them into the design. Any reference images pulled from scifi or the real world to describe what you'd like to see, would be good too.

Unioner ships tend to be a crossbreed of Rheinland lawful designs (big, sturdy wheels/hexagons), the Eagle/Roc line, and what I like to think of as '1970s aircraft aluminum curves'.

This is mostly a skill development exercise (questions about if such a ship is needed, etc, arn't relevant to the OP. I'm just seeing if I can do it). I'll be posting progress pics as I go. If it ends up looking like something else, I'll angle it towards that faction/concept/texture.

I'll also be interested in dieselpunk concepts. Idea isn't to create a ship that looks 'too clean'. Analogue, not digital.


I wonder what an F14 canopy would look like on a freelancer ship...
