Description
The SunSlayer Dreadnought, about 700m in length.The ship has a capability of 8 small turrets on each side , and 12 turrets on the top and bottom side of the ship for increased defense against fighters and corvettes.
On each side of the bow blades there are torpedo bays for long distance attacks.
Between the bow blades there is a massive plasma cannon array inflicting colossal amounts of damage ripping through shields and armor with great ease.
It has slow recharge times however since it draws a great deal of power from the ship.
It has 3 large engines that provide the acceleration and speed the ship needs to make a run for it when it's overwhelmed by enemies.
As a final resort the ship can slice through lesser and slow enemies using the front blades. This has a one time usage capacity since the SunSlayer itself will take some damage from the impact. Such a tactic is used only in extreme conditions when in need to escape a blockade.
PS This is an old render I did on my ancient computer and a temporary contest entry. I'll make a better one as soon as I'm done with my exams.
No I did not make the background! That's why it says gamewallpapers.com at the bottom.
At the time I made the ship my old PC couldn't handle complex 3d rendering, so I just used pre-made backgrounds to save time.

The Sunslayer will most likely(99.99%) not qualify for the contest, I have read the rules but like I stated in the description, it's just a temporary entry...I just put that there to see what ppl think about it & stuff.
This is my second and final entry: [link] Still a work in progress but I'm close to completion.

Hehe, too bad it won't qualify, It doesn't meet the contest requirements and I can't adapt it because I don't have the source file anymore.
Maybe you'll like this other entry I'm working on right now: [link]

Good design. Some notes-
Eve ships do not have fixed armament. Rather they have fitting options - the max currently available is 8 weapons. (but they give spherical coverage - turrets come in pairs, but only one of the pair is active at any time). Most ships will have, for ex. 8 hi power slots (weapons), with a mix of turret and launcher hardpoints, as well as drone (remote self-guided weapon platforms) capacity.

... so why does it say "gamewallpapers.com" at the bottom?
You didn't make this.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Because I found the wallpaper on the internet and I liked it and I thought it'd look cool as a background for the ship... the rest is explained at the bottom of the description. If you don't believe me look at some of my other stuff that I made on my old computer... many of them have backgrounds that were not made by me.

Cool, but I think you need to look at the submission rules again.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
This is not my main entry, this is just so I can see what kind of feedback I get. I'm going to make a better one and submit that, with the 6 views in one image, simple lines no shading, dimensions bla bla

Symmetrical but beautiful also lol, and well thought up i like it
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep, I like symmetry, most of my designs are symmetrical, and the final entry ship will also be symmetrical but a whole lot better, I just need to get the exam I have in 3 days out of my way so I can start building

always wonder how people do this kind of art, what programm u need to do this?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well as U can see in the updated description the background is not mine, I just used that cuz my old pc that I used to make this ship could not handle advanced rendering, but for the ship itself and textures I used 3dsMax 2009 and photoshop cs2 (at the time).

no biggie, I got a bigger better one now...and I just got the best ship design idea ever... I can't wait to start working on it... freaking exams!

Dude, thats awesome, cool work ^^ pity about the hdd explosion though >.<

Awesome ship, worthy of winning
But if it wins, i dont think the turret capacity is going to be as you describe it, the highest number of turrets in eve online is, as far as i know, 8.
But again, great ship.

hehe, I know, I just figured since it's such a big ship those little turrets won't have too much kick... Anyway, I will need to start building a new ship because the source file for this little monster was lost in a HDD explosion so I can't render the 6 views in a single image. It's good that I have time until the 13'th of next month...I'll build my best ship yet. It's actually a funny thing because I always build ships and port them into games like Freelancer and X3, so this contest is exactly what I've been waiting for

I gotta give you credit, the ship looks badass. Even though it's an awesome ship, though, the maximum length was 1000 meters.
Also, the largest of the titans is 17 KM in length, and the smallest is around 14 KM (I think). They do fine with only 8 guns (and I'm not sure they actually have 8 turret slots, but I'll have to look that up). And there are ships like the Armageddon that are over one KM, and still only have 8 turrets ^_^
Most big ships just get more firepower by using whatever is in the drone bay, and others have immense CPU and Powergrid capacity so that they can use massive guns.

Well I could just modifi that number to 999.99 meters
