Check out The Star Wreck project!

The Maesltrom will be finished and downloadable somewhere today. For now though, I wanted to try a new concept.
Trying to get out of the Swiss Army knives a bit. How does it look?

Procetive cover, like a peitho comes to mind. Or a strong forward attack craft. The bridge seems to have too little detail compared to the other parts and the tiny wings behind the bridge seen unnecesary.
The mid front would make for an awesome cannon.
So this is what will come out of your IRC discussion of the knifes? haha!
I do see some detail lacking here and there, might as well use a other section choice for the structure there.
Also, you might want to beef up the part near engines there, a broadside could hit it pretty bad.
So beefing up the part near the engines, making them less winglet-y, and add some detail near the center, allright. Possibly just redesigning the ship, there are some pieces I just don't like, and I think I can make it flow a bit better.

I don't know if it would look retarded or not but could you have some sort of transformation where the angles and struts on the front fold into the center section then expand as a shield during battle? If you do that I'd even say make the 'shield portion larger. And yay the sharply pointed wings might look better bent back half way or something, like you did on the Hoover.
So having the armor fold...that's actually a very good idea. And bending the wings, hmm? I'll see what I can make of it.
EDIT:
Dynamic armour plating idle
Dynamic Armour plating active
Opinions?

That is baddass looking. Unless the rear wings are shielded too I might switch them so the front extends further than the back but regardless I'm glad it turned out so good. And the bend is not what I was picturing but it does look better beefed up.

Also, when the front plate is active, the whole middle of the ship looks fragile.
Agreed on the wings, but the front would be called offering. You give away side armor and get massive frontal protection.
Small update on the Maelstrom: as can be seen from the picture, fighters, bombers and gunships are finished. Uploading DL soon.
