Megathron (EVE Online)

Description
This is Megathron. My second attempt at recreating a Gallente design with their many dreaded curves and angles - it has a few ugly spots. Nevertheless it's the most detailed ship I've ever built. By not making blocks meet perfectly I learned to make the shadows work for me, giving many parts of the ship significantly more depth than a simple paintjob ever would have.

It is entirely made of Trinium so it's fairly agile for a ship that just exceeds the size threshold for jumpgates.
All 7 turret hardpoints of the original design are there (base size 3.5 x 3.5) and can be populated.

Resource cost is about 1.4M Trinium and 10M credits.

Downsides: Too big for gates. Forward deceleration is negligible so turn sideways to stop drifting. Needs more generators or a single decent generator upgrade.

Downloaded as a placeholder until I finished my mothership and this is simply sick!!!
As some mentioned the energy problem: Let's be honest...this is exceptionally maneuverable for a 15 slotter and this is due to the massive thrusters inside, which consume a LOT of energy. I replaced some with generators and dampeners and it's still showing 0.5+/0.5+/1.6+
IMPRESSIVE. Still super nimble with enough decelaration and energy problem solved either.
A++++

So found that this ship has framework, if you turn them all into inertia dampers it fixes the deceleration. But it adds a whole new problems with the power.

This looks amazing just like I remember, its agile which is blowing my mind, the only downside is its forward (acceleration) and backwards(deceleration) speed and its generated energy.

Not only does it look stunning, it handles so well even with full armor at a 15 slot size i simply cant understand.
I have tried again and again to replicate the performance stats and i cant even after tearing this thing apart a few times.
On a scale of 10 this is a 20 it is simply amazing.

This should be in a museum. Holy crap the detail.

This was my favourite ship in Eve. This and the Rattlesnake. Fantastic work, looks like the real thing.

My only complaint, you've made me want to boot Eve up again and reactivate my accounts.

Great job on the detail work.
