Fantastic. Was it ever popular in Japan to have elevators play cheesy background music? In the US, it tended to be quiet, instrumental versions of popular songs. I could see the Cyclops' elevators playing toned down versions of "Ride of the Valkyries" or "1812 Overture" or some other military-themed tunes...

Ride of the Valkyrie ? Naa, The Girl from Ipanema for elevator #1 and Fly me to the moon for #2 of course.
No other will be allowed.

That would make for a great scene in a movie. You follow a member of the crew as they board the elevator before liftoff, and the elevator is playing a quiet version of "Girl from Ipanema." The ship immediately lifts off and begins combat operations, and the the song gradually changes from jazz to a warlike march version of the same song...
I can't thinking of this awkward scene

It will be rather a very dramatic scene.
Also, it may need a women's voice, 'Ding! Floor 10. Hard wear department.'
It's sounds like nothing auspitious.
Red Zepp.... How old are you?
:lol Sure you do.
Here's a cargo loading ramp.
It's the back side of the ramp.
Here's a top side.
Sliding ramp.
As I said before, it goes here.
turn over and see.
Thank you very much for looking.

Looks good. Reminds me of the millennium falcon ramps a little bit.

Saw the first picture and thought ...and of course it will extend out and work, knowing Katsu. Then I got to picture 4 and of course there it is. :thumbsup
Superb craftsmanship my friend!
That is one major step for the little guys on this ship to walk up. Now for the crawler to haul the cargo up the ramp. :lol

That would have taken me at least a week to design, probably a week to build (with all the 2nd and 3rd attempts,) and it STILL wouldn't have come out looking that nice...
Lovely, just lovely.
Definitely needs to build cargo, vehicles, more people, Katsu-san you need to keep this going a little bit longerAwesome ramp
it will look great with those little cargo loading vehicles and containers you will now have to make for the ship

Thanks, Michael-san!
Here comes again!!
Thanks!:lol
You are too much underestimating yourself. tom-san, Thanks!
Thank you, sir.

OK,OK,
When I built the Planet Explorer a few years ago, I thought I build the small vehicle that may be able to contained in the cargo bay. I built it way about 3/4 and it has been deserted on the shelf of my work shack. This time it is not bad to build the things like that.:rolleyes
:rolleyes
:confused
:unsure
:angry
Now I am trapped again. That was a good cordinated set up.
You guys are really good at make me buy yours.:facepalm
Thank you very much!!!

Thank you, my friends.
Now I'm spending a numerous time to catch up on graphic editor on PC and struggling for paint scheme.
I've grabbed the basic scheme and I can go on to a test coloring soon.
Thanks for looking!

Katsu - san ,
I’m trying to recall if you mentioned something about a Squid being part of the inspiration for this design ?
If that is the case , and you’re still planning to paint over the metal finish , would you consider a camouflage paint scheme for Cyclops ? .
After all , squids , octopi and cuttlefish are known for changing their appearance / coloration . It would be an advantage to meld into the background for a battleship in space .
Or possibly utilising the ( broken - jigsaw ) camouflage techniques used on real battleships during WW2 etc ... but with a futuristic twist ?
Just a few thoughts .
Anyhoo , I’m sure that whatever you eventually decide upon will be brilliant anyway !
:cheersGed:thumbsup

Orange, yellow, and blue color scheme. No one would camouflage a battle cruiser with those colors. Best plan ever as no one would suspect till it was too late. In deep space it would not matter as there is little light to reflect what the colors are anyway.
Seriously, whatever you come up with will, true to form, surprise and delight us all. Back to munching popcorn.opcorn
