I know its missing the other tail fins but I couldn't get them right without ticking myself off. Will apply them later as well as some extra defensive guns.

This is/was my 'frustration reducing' model I worked on while trying to calm myself down when trying to redo a part of a model I need to finish up a request for but that part kept frustrating me to no end, so to take some stress off my plate and because suggested it I started work on an airship. Not as steam punk as it started out since I realized the contra rotating props would dig into the ground if the Imperial ever needed to land. So I cut the props off, put a mech hangar in their place and slapped some thrusters onto the Imperial.

Plan on using some OLD mech idea's i had back when i was doing mech stories. I think my Naga like mechs would work nicely here, or not. *shrug*

Anyhow, I reused the bridge area and the adorning guns from the old Catamaran Battleship model I made a few months back, resized and repurposed an old Mana Rifle and turned it into two Rail guns. Those Anti Air guns and the two Rail guns currently constist of the Imperials defensive and offensive weapons. Thinking of copy/pasting the tank turret from the Hover Rail and putting on on each wing if it looks right.

Anyhow, the Imperial Slaughter isa large flying Carrier with a hangar area in the rear for a few dozen fighters and room in each area to the left and right of the central area for about 6 mech about the size of the Black Ball. The Rail cannons can function as a penetrating weapon should the Imperial absolutely need to ram an enemy airship.

The paint job is ok, couldn't think of anything that wasn't too flashy.

Modeled in Google Sketchup 7.

Enjoy~
