i90807065 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 (edited) Check this out, its another of my projects. Started on it today. Dont have a name for it though. Heard of Yamoto? Thisis bigger. Edited November 4, 2007 by i90807065 Quote
Viggen Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 I have one word to meet that in size. WOW! That will be really really really (did I mention really) cool. Looks like an Oliver Hazzard Perry Frigate and Invincable Carrier mated. But now for a name....then again you have to decide who it is for. Quote
Falcon161 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Damn thats a big battleship. I got an name for it, how about Leviathan! Quote
i90807065 Posted November 4, 2007 Author Posted November 4, 2007 Hey I got some bad news regarding the ARKBIRD...it got deleted. BUT now im workin on this and the Su-35(which ive found will be longer than I thought til its release...) Quote
i90807065 Posted November 4, 2007 Author Posted November 4, 2007 Damn thats a big battleship. I got an name for it, how about Leviathan! Sounds good. But I dunno DREADNOUGHT sounds cool too. Quote
Viggen Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 A shame about the Arkbird. But good to hear about the Su-35. I was thinking Aigion or Hregslevor. Quote
Thog10 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Hmm, may I humbly suggest that you delete "C" turret of the main battery or move it to right aft of "B" turret at the same level. In its present possition it might introduce some slight stability problems to your fine ship. 1700 tons of turret plus an extremely tall armored barbette might prove to be troublesome in that particular locale. Hmm, okay... I am going clam up and go back to reading Friedman's books where I belong. Quote

DirtyBirdFA Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 I have one word to meet that in size. WOW! THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!!! lmao! Sorry, mate, had to do that. Quote
Silverbolt Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 thw white bird? blasphemy! \o\ where is the laser cannon? ok is good :D Quote
Thog10 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Rivet Counters. Yeah... probably. With aircraft I would happily accept an F-22 tri-plane with four GAU-8s mounted in each wing, but with my ships I am a little picky. Quote
+Dave Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Yeah... probably. With aircraft I would happily accept an F-22 tri-plane with four GAU-8s mounted in each wing, but with my ships I am a little picky. http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=23192 Read that..... Quote
Thog10 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 i90807065, I didn't mean to pick on you, and I hope that my posts were not / are not taken as such. I intended my words to be light-hearted, but looking back over them I can see how they might be taken in other ways. It's great to take a free hand to design and dream about what could be, to wonder about how steel could be shaped in fantastic ways. Good luck with the design. Thog10 Quote

Thog10 Thx but its np I didnt take em the wrong way. Quote
Viggen Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 (edited) Jeez man that thing has Torps too? What else does it have Nuclear missles or a toaster launching AA gun? Well I guess that my days of killing ships in the Norwiegen Coast Guard P-3 are over when this comes around! Edited November 4, 2007 by JA 37 Viggen Quote
i90807065 Posted November 4, 2007 Author Posted November 4, 2007 (edited) The holes in boxes on the side are SAMs,has 10 gatling guns, and the little rectangles on the rear of the ship fire ICBMs (or something of that size possibly nukes). Edited November 4, 2007 by i90807065 Quote
Talos Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 But could it defeat an 80 year old Tillman? (Image still in progress, based on a drawing in my copy of Friedman's Battleship book.) Quote
i90807065 Posted November 4, 2007 Author Posted November 4, 2007 BATTLE OF THE GIANTS!!!!! By the look of em, they are pretty even in firepower and possibly in ammo capacity and armor. Quote
Talos Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 That was a US maximum battleship from 1923 that I'm drawing based on the Springstyle in the Friedman book. Specs are (circa 1923): Displacement: 80,000 tons LWL: 975 feet Beam: 108 feet Speed (knots): 25.2 Main Battery: 15 18"/50 cal (5 x 3) Main Belt: 16" thick Quote
i90807065 Posted November 4, 2007 Author Posted November 4, 2007 I believe my displacement is 125'000 or so. its 1002 ft long 190 ft wide 50 kts max main armament is the same except the 10 miniguns all 50 cal if belt is armor, 1 ft thick You gotta remember though mine doesnt(and never will) exist Ergo, You win Quote
Falcon161 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 It's still a big ship! I just wish I could draw the mega dreadnauhgt that my faction the T.M. uses! I think in terms of overall size it would be bigger!ere are the specs Displacement: 200,000 Tons Length: 2312FT Width: 234FT Max Speed: 36kts Main Armament: 8 24", 4 12", 13 Gau-8, 7 SAM batteries, 8 Cruise Missle Batteries Armor: 2 FT thick Even though it is heavily armored, and armed, the Behemoth class Mega DreadNaught is encumbered to a top speed of 36 kts. It's major engagements include the Shelling of Pyong-Yang North Korea during 3 days batte of Korea. One of my friends who read that story said it was scary that Teenagers have control of such a beast of the seas. If yall want I will release that story as soon as i edit it. Quote
i90807065 Posted November 4, 2007 Author Posted November 4, 2007 (edited) Yeah, thats about 2x as big as this. Sounds cool. Oh btw an update. Ima start on the model today. Edited November 4, 2007 by i90807065 Quote
Viggen Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Yeah, thats about 2x as big as this. Sounds cool. Oh btw an update. Ima start on the model today. Added some more toys I see. What modeling program do you use? Post edited by Moderator to remove re-posted pics Quote
i90807065 Posted November 4, 2007 Author Posted November 4, 2007 Gmax. Its very close to 3Ds max. In fact, I used mustangs tutorila and I followed the instructions on screen at about the same speed. Quote
Falcon161 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 This things gonna be scary to see in the game! Quote
