The Bane is my new carrier. It holds a total of 8 fighters in the 2 wings and is my latest attempt to avoid boxiness. I'll also be posting my new antimissile frigate, the Dirk. The fact that I am posting a carrier after Natalya said this:

actually is a coincidence(yeah the Bane would last about 5 seconds against the Longinus but whatever). Sorry about the images, the could be better and if you have any ideas of pics I should take, your input is welcomed.


The prow of the beast, the skeleton head was the best I could do

From above. See the wings?

The missile box. Once the missiles are fired, it is ejected to give the guns a better line of fire

The EMP missile battery, the missiles are recharged to keep the ship's PD from disappearing too quickly.

The bay door open


Engineering

A horrible view of the engines

The crew quarters.

The bridge, the ship is designed to split into 3 parts for storage. I screwed up and now it has to be disassembled to get at the interior

Medbay

The mess hall and airlock. The airlock is positioned forwards so attackers have farther to go to get to the important parts of the ship.

A secret compartment used to smuggle covert ops teams around

The airlock from the outside and the name of the ship.

A view of the side of the ship

The engine

The hatch the covert ops team exit's through. It is the only way in or out of the compartment and is usually covered by the missile launcher.

C&C requested, Required, and Demanded. Say something dammit

Love the face. Can it bite other ships?
Nicely done! Though, I don't understand why people keep building carriers that launch fighters forward...

Impressive! Most impressive. Light Carriers are awesome IMO. Shame these aren't allied.

Way Cool, Could You Maybe Increase The Engine Amount Though?

Stop being so epicly awesome, already my Nyphilians are starting to feel left behind.

That's Because They're All Dead, Crushed By The Immortals Beluga

I think it should be able to bite into other ships. That would be epic.

Agreed! Im digging this, it might not be a SHIP, but it is still pretty awesome, nice work

looks very , but maybe thats what you wanted.

Goddammit. I was trying to avoid the giant space box look. The wings were to break that up and the body was slanted inwards to avoid that too. The body had to go in a straight line though.

Thank you all for the C&C though

well, the back part looks good, but the front section is pretty much a rectangle with a face on it. Maybe just have a better transition between the two areas, then it would look much nicer.

I love the front.

Very awesome!
I love the missile box and the fighters nice job!

While the main compartment is still essentially boxy, those fighter bays certainly help reduce the overall boxiness. It's certainly an awesome ship though, I love the amount of detail crammed into the interior and the well-designed and snug fighter bays. This ship sure has a lot of character.

In the wall sections, add side details (greebling). Use pegs and the briks with side studs to add detail to remove the straight shape.
