I am working on a concept for a Rheinland prison ship. Unfortunately all my current approaches are theoretically and I need some input on the needed parts of such a ship.
The biggest part will be the imprisonment section. I am thinking of some huge and long part in the middle of the ship.
On the one side there are various supply containers hanging, like big silos or something.
Actually I don't know how to place the engine and the command bridge. Do you have suggestions on this?
the bridge on rheinland ship is quite suggestive. It's rather hard to distinguish it on their cap ships. I suggest somewhere completely at the front section. Which itself should be blocky, angular. Like a hammer.
As of the engine, at the end completely as all Rheinland ships. The only exception is the Colossus, but thats a custom model anyway.
I envisioned it more like the standard Prison Liner, but with the front shaped similar to the Gunboat or Cruiser. Possibly with removable cell areas, kind of like how trains are, but more prison-y. Seems more efficient that way - just grab a cell block instead of loading prisoners individually.
The big container parts below the black parts are modular and there are four of them, to dynamically increase the cargo space. I will make another shot without this containers, so you can see what I'm thinking of. (Need to spilt up the model.)
