BAF- Carrier Re-imagined

[Unlucky_Soul]

Was fiddling around with the bret models, and came up with this:

Concept Carrier

Feedback and comments most welcomed.

Disclaimer
I just made this for fun. In no way it is intended to be included as a replacement of the current Bretonia Carrier or a new ship to Bretonia's Shipline Although If the community wants it, who am i to stop them

Ok here is a new model.

Model 2

Well here goes another one

Model 3

After going through the feedback, i re tweaked the 3rd model and came up with this
Model 4

Came up with another one
Model 5

Did some tweaking.
Model 6

Sorry for the Delay. Well here is a new reworked version. No textures yet. The polycount seems to be on the higher side. Will have to reduce it in case it will not do

Model 7

Made a model from scratch. Based this on a shrimp seeing how Bret ships are shrimp like in aesthetics. Its a bit rough nevertheless Give your feedback

Model 8

Made the model a bit wider and longer. Some aesthetic changes and a chassis/frame to give it a more robust look/feel.

That looks so much better in my book!

Any fool can blow up a ship!

But to look your enemy in the eye, knowing that you will remember his face for the rest of your life.
Now that takes ... a stomach, much stronger than you will ever have.

It has potential to be much better than what we have in-game right now. But the open launching and docking bays are a massive weak spot for your prototype. This is how I'd see it (beware! Ultra-high paint skills!):

Reminds me of Reavers from Starcraft.

Is it just me or does it look like there's a corsair look to it?(Besides some obvious Bretonian hull design)

Way more better than old one.

At this point everything would be better than the ingame one, I like what Mao did there.

That ship looks "bretonian" due to its parts being taken from other bretonian ships. It looks nice but not close to a carrier. If you make a bigger hole in front you can turn the model in to "battle cruiser" with heavy forward gun and would look awesome and logical respond against the Valors - like a redesigned Bretonian Destroyers in to a super Destroyers of some sort.

Kit bashing models are nice but originality to build something new comes first. Also what Mao stated as points are legit - the forward hangars are weak spot for a carrier (a reason why the current model have them on its backward side to be protected).

A lot of people are awaiting a replacement model and I am up for it as well. As lead of the carrier project will give u some hints to consider when tweaking the model or making a new one.
The carrier should:
- scream "bretonia" (to look similar and close to what brets have from vanila - to look like an addition to the vanila line in terms of design)
- be with good shape representing a command ship (details to reveal that are multiple bridges, antennas and nice shape if possible similar to other bret caps due to the fact the carriers were build by taking their parts from dunkirk in order to save materials and time to design absolutely fresh model)
- have a lot of place for all this personnel on board (a lot of windows at some "headquarters" areas)
- have a lot of hangars (small and large) - main reason for this carrier to exist was to carry the remaining massive amounts of bretonian challengers (and fighters for cover) so the ship must reveal that doctrine by maintaining at least 2 small and 2 large hangars.

These images below are from Freelancer bonus disk concept art - bretonian early carrier designs. You can get some inspiration from them.

That new ship model (post1) is an improvement from the dunkirk mk2 you designed, so keep up the work and don't hesitate to post something new you've done.
