Minecraft Wing Commander Tribute Project

[ATARI.Duckman]

Hello

I am currently working (by myself) on a Wing Commander Project in Minecraft.
I will include ships from most of the games (as far as possible) and create some ships inspired by Wing Commander.

here is a link to some of my "creations" so far: ..... (not allowed to post links yet) coming soon. you can google "namco_duckman imageshack" to find my pictures.

The carrier is inspired by the TCS Tiger Claw (Wing Commander Movie) and the TCS Vesuvius (Wing Commander IV).

The size of the carrier is about 630 meters in length. 24 decks.
There is also a Venture class corvette (length 80 meters), a Thunderbolt MK VII (length 33 meters), a Dralthi MK II (length 23 meters) and a civilian shuttle (length 50+ meters) so far.
All complete with interior. currently working on the interior of the carrier ship.

I started the project on January, 12th 2014.

Process so far:
Carrier: 100% Outside, 10% Inside
Venture-Class Corvette: 100% Outside, 80% Inside
Dralthi Mk II: 100%
Thunderbolt Mk VII: 100%
Civilian Shuttle: 100% Outside, 80% Outside
Southampton-Class Destroyer: 0% (not started yet)


Minecraft Stones used: about 1 million stones so far.

Wing Commander Resource pack for Minecraft: 0% (not started yet)

more to come...



I hope, you like my "creations"

Thanks. working on it most of my free time. up to 16 hours on the weekends.
Will make a video of it too. but first i need to finish most of the interior of the carrier.
When i am finished with all ships, maybe i will upload it to a server so everyone can have a look at the fleet.

Awesome stuff you have there. When I saw it on the front page I thought it looked a bit like the Vesuvius. How many hours in the month did it take to build it?
