Thanks for the video @Silence Ninja Gameplays! :)

Receiving this great feedback is seriously motivating me to do more! as i said before i'm not that much of a person for lore. but i did what came to mind, and i still have a lot in mind!
i'm mainly commenting to post some statements ini reply to some comments i've recieved the past week.

- This ships main purpose is to be a Primary Offensive weapon itself, not carry a whole array of turrets scattered around the exterior hull of the ship through front and back. The ship literally is the weapon itself! (in hopes of Large Ship weapons ie. Cannon/Railgun/Laser)

- Since i mentioned above that the ships main purpose is to be a weapon itself offensively, it's not going to feature other things you'd find in other ships, like large hangers or cargo bays/ refineries and engineering rooms and so on so forth

- I understand that it is rather extensively greeble'd, having deep experience from past voxel games, i've grown to abhor flat surfaces and really spice things up with detailing as much as i can which is where greebling comes to play. and yes i'm not really fond of flat surfaces but i won't turn away from anyone's creations just because it doesnt fit my style, everyone has a style of their own, and everyone should express it!

- Major apologies to those who are lagging due to the un-optimized status of the game itself, the ship is Extremely greebled and lot's of shadow's are casted on the shapes.

- The Engines were the first part that i worked on. I had an idea of having an organic/curved engine design, i really like'd the curved look of the main engine design in the middle, and it continued to the bottom section as well.

- if i can remember well, an approximate 40-50 hours total have been spent on this ship, due to the fact that i constantly go back and forth and polish it minute after minute, some nights i've gone restless and spent a whole night's worth of sleep to bring my imagination to life in-game, it really does bring back the childhood in me.

- I'm not practical sometimes, but my next project i'm trying to make it really practical and useful yet still look beautiful as i've imagined it so far.

- NO SHIP IS TOO BIG!

If there are any other questions you fellow engineers want to ask me, drop a comment below or even contact me on the Space Engineers forums where i also unveil my projects upon completion. I even take requests! (so far i've failed one due to ship weight, i get carried away!) i'm again really happy that i made it to Top of the Week and even have a spot on Top of All Time! it's a really good feeling, i hope to see you guys make great ships and stations as well, See you starside!

this is a bit, uhh, too big to be a destroyer; you have buried the hatchet and made a dreadnought, great job this must've taken hours to build

This is used by captain jack in his machinima series for the green drones

Still my favourite ship design in the game after 5 years! :PinkDestroyer:

I could. I generally don't re-upload stuff until I have done a complete refit and made it fully survival ready. This is one nasty piece of work with it's thrusters. For example, Even after removing the obvious problems (and having a negative impact on the thing's intended aesthetic), there are a number of deeper problems. For example there's a thruster pack that's inboard on the main hull that point upward and tear out the hull section directly above if the ship is commanded to move downward... I really prefer to use extreme delicacy to preserve as much of the author's intent as possible but this ship might not be possible... The entire design is probably the most complex ever published making the refit even more challenging...

World Corrupted =/

Guess there probably no chance of this getting re-uploaded either...
