A whole city ? Hey! Are you gonna kill me ?
But... wait a minute:rolleyes

Thank you very much !

It would look cool in a diarama like the SDF-1 on Macross Island with the city built up around it.

Wow! Someone needs to film this, complete with appropriate lighting and a starfield background.

Impressive, as always!
I'm not terribly keen on the using of sprue, though--it just looks like sprue.
Also, I'd paint the dock/whatever a dramatically different color than the ship itself, for contrast.
That's all I got.
Hi! Treadwell-san,
This time I used those parts sprue as a kind of experimental purpose.
And I thought it would be affordable if you use very limitedly :rolleyes .
I did a little bit dirtier weathering paint on that rig but...
As you suggest me, any other contrary coloring for the rig might
be effective for sure. Once I thought a dull red would be interesting.
Thank you very much my friend, your valuable advices is always
welcomed as usual.
all the best.

HOW did I miss this thread for all this time?
That is a beautiful model. Reversing the carrier hull is one of the most creative ideas I've ever seen in a model. And the way you used the Apache is a close second.
I really, REALLY want to see other ships in this fleet!

Yuumi's ship looks like the CVN-65 Enterprise and Space Battleship Yamato had a child together!
It looks like something a Marine would design... Seriously.
The only problem I have with it are the straight flight decks. I think even with a spacecraft carrier there's going to be a need for an angled deck for the same reasons they have on the supercarriers of today. The aircraft are just too big, too heavy, and approach too fast for an axial (straight) deck to work!
(Hypothetical World War II scenario... COULD there have been fewer casualties and aircraft accidents IF the carriers back then had angled decks??? I've seen far too much film of old prop planes smashing into each other on straight deck carriers and even plowing into the island!)
Even if there is no air in space and no significant gravity, there are still significant masses involved. They don't come to a stop without significant braking and barriers/trapping cables. You'd have the same problem as in an atmosphere but multiplied by many times even at relatively "slow" space velocities like 3,000 mph.
