The Den
Alright, I know I don't, and won't, have a lot of stuff to upload in the way of sections/weapons/doodads; but I'll post what I do make so people can enjoy them.
only one to start, which I know isn't much but It'll do for now. more will come as I make more.
Thanks to Danny for the original Eintek 400mm cannon and for the sw vulcan that I used to build the center loading mechanism.
It's a modified Eintek cannon with an upgraded reloading mechanism, allowing the firing chamber to cool off quicker and pick up shells faster. This lets the cannon fire short busts of shells in rapid succession, devastating larger targets with high damage shells.
Didn't like any previous version of the autocannons after SWing, so I did my own.
Replacing the previous half-a**ery, the Pulverizer Heavy Cannon designed specifically for the OSS (Order Space Ship) Amaretto, soon to be flagship of the CSDF (Council Station Defense Fleet).
(a little tidbit of the story around which my next weapons, sections and ships will be built around)

And so I curiously venture into the world of shipbuilding, unsure of what I might find...

I seem to have forgotten that :S (sorry, went form the png not the gif, so all the animation is done personally); I'll pent up the blast a bit for your sake as well, kinda wouldn't exist without your original work.
EDIT: updated, is that more satisfactory?

Good point, my main excuse is that I added more than a plateful to the release valve explosion, adding the two together does make a decently size splosion. either way I'm going to table this for now, and work on coming up for ideas for new weapons, and suggestions welcome I'm itching to try something new.

Yes, space conditions...If we model the type of explosion recoil a ww2 battleship main gun would generate, the spaceship would just go spinning off in the opposite direction unless they corrected with maneuvering thrusters every time they fired, no? Hence the use of magnetic accelerates and the like. I would think designers wouldn't be so wasteful with the propellant in space that it would make such a flare. Very nice animation though, I love the loading mechanism.
*edit* That doesn't mean the explosions aren't badass. Go Navy!
some great firing shots http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GC9_VKdzv9w
*further edit* Deflagration is a nifty word

Nice modification. Now it really looks bad***. I would like to see your OWN creations, though--I'm sure you could make your own artillery.
If admirals hate and trash your ships,
If you can't get it right;
Then off you go, but don't call quits;
Just go make custom sprites.
