2023 ended weirdly abruptly for me, but I got the shot in the arm I needed in order to hit the ground running in 2024. This year's going to be absolutely crazy, but for me personally, I feel my worst years are finally behind me. I'm ready to stop drowning in a sea of...
This is a general update and not project specific. To start, I've been pretty sick the last couple of weeks. That nuked almost every end-of-the-year plan and goal I had for 2023, including the Yamato project. Even as I write this, I'm only just 'recovering.' There's...

This is the official release of the ship from about a week ago. A lot of builders, myself included, have been trying to get our hands on it for a long time. I even found a visual recreation of the ship on the Steam Workshop that I poked around with for a little bit more than six months before the official release.
Having said all that, I’ve got mixed feelings about the design. I’d like to take a crack at improving it (starting by converting all of the armor to light from heavy and doing an all or nothing scheme), but the ship’s outer appearance doesn’t fit with any of the factions I’m working on. If I do take a shot at this, I’d like to add it to one of my factions so it’s not purely a side project with no relation to anything else.
Xocliw’s giving a two month window for the design competition, so there’s more time than you’d normally get with these sorts of things. I just know it’s going to be a bigger time sink than I can really justify right now. Hell, I’m not even sure what direction I want to take the refit in. Carrier? Updated battlecruiser? Battleship? I don’t know yet.
So for right now I’m just thinking about it. If I decide to commit to this craziness, I’ll be keeping the blog updated on each phase of the project. More so than usual: Lots of screenshots, more rambling, etc.

Okay so the Cosmo Messers aren't 100% compatible with the Yamato, so I wanted to modify one to be close to spec. I somehow wound up making a full-blown Cosmo Falcon. There I go, makin' replicas again I also did some side by side comparisons on an old request and Good...
Oh my goodness ... well, things may have slowed down exponentially compared to the first 24 hours of working on this thing, but that doesn't mean there hasn't been major progress. Check this out. The exterior is nearly finished (minus coloring) The catapults work...
