Model-wise it is perfect. May be comparison with other battle-cruisers would be handy because with that tiny body it would become really harder to hit then the norm for battle-cruiser. May be making the back side fins a bit closer to the body would solve it- so it could be up-scaled properly to the other BC sizes unless the idea behind the model is to be OP and harder to hit, if the thy part get up scaled on LABC like size then the backpart would be a way too big and it would be brick in PvP- none of the both is good.
From RP standpoint having unlimited supply of battleships and cruisers is meh but since none cares, why should I care.
I just hope that the modeller makes more stuff for other small unlawful factions, because there are a lot of them that need attention and new stuff.

It'd be poor form to forget about the existence of your own characters.;)
ROFL!:lol::lol::lol:Dane was pwned:lol:
ON topic:
Did you think we will stop at the ugly gunboat? Did you think that our BS will be ugly? Did you think that there won't be more ugly ships? Well, you were wrong!
Hellfire Battlecruiser! Now with more ugly!
UGLY!
Sorry but seriously, the fighter is alright, maybe even interesting; the BS is actually cool but the GB and this... thing are Fugly!
you absolutely HAVE to find a way to get the wing part to rotate around the body of the ship. that would be so ungodly sexy. also the side view of it looks a little squished. perhaps not make it so tall (as in top to bottom height) if it was a bit slimmer it would look even sexier imo.

Stuff like scaling it in comparison to other BCs is easy to do, though I suggest it will be a cruiser rather than a BC, just personal intake.
Uhh that is bad part of what I wanted mention in my post with the Brick in PvP part. Back part would catch all of the missed/dodged fire.
That's why I suggested slight changes in the back part, in order to reduce the wide back part. May be if you invert it and make it like reverted arrow with the wide part on the nose( as wide as LABC for example) it could work better, other option is to make 2 wide parts one in front and one back both with LABC size and tiny central part like "|-|" form.
Sadly such nice designs does not cope up with the mechanics well, all discovery capitals should have "typical" tube form.
Pancakes it is not about the scaling-it is about what the 2 types of scaling would affect the ship in PvP.
