Here's my first in a long time, an addition to my probably forgotten Reaper fleet
this time with a bit of a backstory

.

DL: HERE

Name: Reaper Mothership Mk. 2
HP: Unknown
Speed: high
Turning: high
Accel: high
Description: The so called Reaper 'Mothership' is thought to be the largest and most powerful of the Reaper fleet,
though this unknown because of the Reaper's secretive nature, but is the largest encountered,
only holographs obtained by stealth-ships have revealed it to us. despite it's size,
it was seen preforming extraordinary maneuvers that would rip one of our ships that size apart.
it's weapon's have never been seen in action, so it's actual power still remains a mystery.
Number of sections: Unknown
Total HP: Unknown
Number of weapons: Unknown
Number of modules: Unknown
Weapon's: Unknown

its an interesting design

i like just about all of it except the thrusters, they look out of place and take away from its over all design style. other then that its very nice ^^

yeah i thought about those, they do look really small on a ship of this size,
but keep in mind this is an incomplete design, and i've released it to see what features are bad or good,
and whether it needs something more

Meh, its not so much that their too small, just make some thruster ports for them using 7/8s or 25s or something... I like the overall shape, but 21s don't fit well together

is this^ what you had in mind?

Basically.

Its just my preferance, but I tend to make ports like that, place a *almost*black section inbetween, ageis it, then parent thrusters to it and put them on the, in this case, 26. Then you get a nice engine glow, but if it gets destroyed, you still lose thrust...What you have done actually looks good for that ship though 8)

will you make a color scheme or will you leave it green?

the thrusters look much better now

the color scheme will come later, after i've perfected the hull.

EDIT: i've decided to add a third engine
