This pic gives a really good idea of where this is going. I've been borrowing modules from the c500 Sky Shark Corvette to help me block out the design and I'm very happy with the hammerhead bridge. I'm shooting for about 125 studs so this is actually a little longer than the final version will be. Even though it's shorter than the
Artemis, it will be comparable in firepower, thanks to the two heavy turrets, the main Gatling guns, and the heavier point defense guns.

Thanks, I love them more than life.
I forgot that I took a pic with this variant - an experimental SHIP buster. I think it's a 12" gun?

A couple more things in the queue:
The Baja Blaster is the main ground vehicle of the Children of Dew, used to transport their precious fuel and fight off raiders. I built this tank-styled vehicle but I'm going to make it more buggy-styled with a trailer.
The Imperial Dry-Dock Shuttle is used for personnel and equipment transfer. It will be able to fit in the Artemis's hangar and seat at least three. Inspired by Star Trek shuttles.

How does the Baja Blaster stay upright with that can of Dew hanging off one side? Is the can empty?

A thermal detonator strapped on the left guy's chest has just raised the bar for the definition of brutal.

Space Repair Shunter
I'm trying to design some vehicles for the Space Repair Garage guys but it's going poorly. This is supposed to be like a truck thing that pushes heavy things and welds them in place. It can weld faces, if necessary.
Düf Wagon
Progress continues swimmingly. Look at his little earmuffs!
Compared to Wampa McFuckhands:
Big-Ass Diesel Engine to power the guns and doofers:
Dry-Dock Shuttle
Oh yeah, I worked on this, too:

I'm in awe. Now, the big question is of course: what songs are they playing?
