My scale:

HeuHen: 1mtr = 50px

No, I'm drawing a spaceship from a conworld that I'm building, and thus is of my own creation

I draw my own Sci-fi AU spaceships in SB-scala - very much unscientific, partially based on normal groundbased warships, using similarly weapons-systems and a yet undefined propulsion system - as a said very unscientific

This is a fregat size multi-role support ship:



And a smaller multi-role FAC



Their flexible containerised weaponsmodules are based on Danish standard-flex design and draw by MConrads.

Didn't plan to upload this but the subject came up

Actually they were drawn by McConrads.

Sorry Thiel - just thought you did the Standard Flex, my mistake

Remember that battleships will be king in space rather than carriers due to fuel/orbital mechanics.

remember that artificial gravity is aimed the same way as the propulsion is. so, nose is top basically the only spaceship design I have seen that takes that in account is the rocket from tintin

That depends on a lot of the rules for the setting. If jamming is high, FTL drives are small but expensive, and ranges are long then expect fighters (in some form, remember a Sopwith Camel and a YF-12 are both 'fighters', even though one is 100 times the weight and 20 times as fast as the other). A 'Space fighter' might be closer in size to what we think of as a missile boat or a large bomber than a modern day fighter.

Well that mostly wrong because:
1) There is no point in jamming in space due to being no stealth in space.
2) A FTL drive will be huge and require huge amount of power and a fighter will not be able to house the fusion reactors needed.
3) A fighter will never have a range more than the local gravity well unless you use a highly compacted fuel source, oxygen tanks, food and water are also needed for a long flight and it is easier to store such items in a huge battleship than a 100 ton fighter.
