pegasus needs the center section to be about 20% longer, it looks a tad stocky

and to answer your question, pic related

That's the point. The great thing about the BSG warships is they are built like solid blocks of metal. They can take massive heads because the entire thing is bulkhead.

I always liked sorta realistic looking ships
>>
>>63809578

nah thats not what i mean

the galactica has a nice long pleasing sleek shape

the pegasus looks like they started with this principle, and then squished the ship
>>
>spacecraft
>designed with the "bottom" at a right angle to the direction of travel

There's no gravity in space. "Down" would be toward the engines of the ship.

This, to be quite honest family.

Also: projectrho.com/public_html/rocket is a really great read for anyone interesting in realistic space warfare/travel.
>>
Not even joking about this, but either...

The Arwing from Starfox or,
The Swordfish II from Cowboy Bebop

Simple, geometric designs that still have that "worn" aesthetic are better than the clunky shit posted so far.

>all ships posted thus far have artificial gravity and some method of preventing intertia with direction of travel

>wahh your spaceships arent scientific!!!
>>
>>63809753
Obviously they have some sort of gravity system onboard. I mean they have FTL drives so relativity is already out the window, why not gravity generator?

ftl is at least plausible in the real world with current science if you could accelerate fast enough for long enough (obviously we can't, but in principle it's possible)

denying basic newtonian inertia and magically generating gravity perpendicular to the vector of movement is just silly

Actually that's completely wrong. Relativity flat-out states nothing can accelerate to the speed of light. Einstein said nothing about particles already traveling the speed of light, but accelerating to that speed is impossible.

If you were to put a headlamp on your Sonic-gotta-go-fast ship, you would find that despite how fast you go the light photons are always traveling away from you at the same speed.

>>63809507
They can fuck right off, the B-Wing is and has always been my favorite.

Such a creative and badass ship design, and it's cool they introduced it during RotJ when the Mon Cal ships started showing up in the Alliance.

Goddamn Star Wars used to feel like a real universe, like you were watching a real thing take place.

The only thing that rivaled the B-Wing was the sick A-Wing, but that's just because I love fast as fuck interceptors.
