My first Starship project (that actually took off ... no pun intended)
Here we have a custom designed starship I am building.
This is a medium/large vessel that has several purposes:
There are a total of 11 decks throughout the ship, however no more than 7 in one area.
At this point the only thing complete is the hull and layout of the flight pods, hangar deck, launch bays for fighters.
The hangar deck has 6 fighters and 2 Recon ships.
The interior still need to be done and detailing on the exterior as well as the engines.
I am also hoping to add some redstone elements for flight pod landing lights along with something for the engines. I may try to add a "Red Alert" switch as well to set the ship to combat readiness. Havent decided if I will be able to impliment it without cutting off sections of the ship.
Further details on decks and specific zones will be in a future update once it is finalized. At this point the general zones of the ship will include:
Bow - Forward - Operations
Midship (port/left and starboard/right) - Living
Aft - Rear - Maintenance/Engineering
I really wanted to share this project with the community though and will update as I make progress. At this ponit I am hoping to update once every 1-2 weeks.
I will upload world save and schematics once finished.
Lastly I have not decided on a name yet. Still waiting to see what feels right.
As always feedback is much appreciated along with subs, diamonds and favorites... lol.
Hope you enjoy.

Update #2 : by pxlnic 02/15/2015 10:32:52 amFeb 15th, 2015
Moved to the interior layout. About 1/2 way done with the bow layout. Looking good so far. Will post new cros section map pics once layout complete to show the interneral layout.
Once thats done I'll finish the exterior detailing and add weapons and communications systems and then furish and detail the interior.
It's all coming together. Just tedious at this point.
