      Extreme! Very well done, Liam, maybe the only complaint is the colour πŸ˜„

          Yeah thanks, ill try and get a lot more done tomorrow and start working over the placeholders I have put in so far. No point doing anything with colors or textures till its done it only slows the model and renders down while im still working on it.

            Well with that color I can already see this thing flying low over sand dunes kicking up quite a cloud of sand. Love it.

              Its just a default shader for now ill probably go with traditional aircraft carrier grey. Started working on the details of the front hangers. There are two 'runways' with a smaller pad in the middle for helicopters. I have started adding stairwells, ladders, doors and handrails although they have not shown up very well in the render. Also added some point defence guns and a bryce figure and F-35 aircraft for scale.

                  This is amazing, Liam. I'm watching this thread, and I see updates so so fast. Really amazing, you're great at this. Basically, though, the thing that jumped out at me was the rather low detail on the tower part. Nice work otherwise.

                      I have done away with the humpback shape and decided to put a larger open runway at the back instead.
                      Here is the work in progress on the vertical missle launchers located about midway on the back of the ship/helicopter?, they will also be covered by large doors that slide back to reveal the revolver style launchers I haven't got round to them yet.

                        Added a bit more and started working on the large runway at the rear.

                            No point doing loads of details on the parts that are hardly seen so here is the finished vertical launch system bay with sliding covers.

                                I've never been much of a fan of the Avengers (I prefer the Justice League) but I've always liked the Shield Carrier concept. You're version is certainly one of the better ones I've seen. Nice work.

                                            Hey Liam,

                                            I have not been in the forum lately...got busy with other stuff.

                                            Pretty nice ship.

                                            I like the Gentic slum too. Somehow it looks like a cardboard model...hey, that's why it's a "slum"... πŸ˜‰

                                            I did not know you work for a game company. You also mentioned you're in school. What are you studying btw?

                                            Best,
