A large micro scale warship.
About this creation
The Charon is a ship of the line developed as a joint project between the Tripartite Alliance. The prime principle of design is to bring maximum firepower to bear on a target while presenting the smallest profile in return. With this in mind, all of the main turrets can fire in the forward arc of the vessel, while presenting its thin, spearhead profile towards an enemy. This warship is 957.6 meters in length.
Technically, it was a test in building a mostly-hollow warship with no obvious "up" in terms of studs on the bricks. The forward hull was the funnest part to build, and relies on a series of hinges and self-supporting panels.
I hope you enjoy.

That's a gorgeous, elegant battleship you've got there. I can definitely see how the bow would be the funnest part. Ever thought of giving it coloration? ^Blub^ |

Yup, this is stunning. No doubt a winner. Great turrets and a real futuristic sleek look to it. The nose, the engines the fins, it's just bladdy great. You couldn't do me a favor and see what you think of
http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/183342 - Yes shameless self promo, but I always like to know what super-builders of micro-scale space think. Cheers, and super ship! |

Comments? I think this deserves many, many more of them. Looks more like a battlecruiser to me. Can't say why, though. Anyway, the little yellow bar says all. |
