Hello, I am a big admirer of your work. All ships that you created, are amazing and your personal designs are original and great. What I want to ask, whether you are considering create something from the universe of Starcraft and Warhammer 40k? For example such ships as battle cruiser from StarCraft, or grand cruisers from Warhammer 40k. Or you are a primarily fan, only to the universe of Star Wars? Thanks in advance for your reply.

Liking the prospect of (finally) equipping this particular WEG vessel’s hull blemishes with visible weaponry; single-barrel medium turbolasers and quad lights, I take it? Offhand, similar (albeit scaled-up) extrapolations would serve most Mon Cal designs rather well.
In the blisters, single heavy turbolaser (ISD2 main gun calibre), quad mediums (Acclamator calibre). The blisters will need to move, and be rescaled from the original sketches. Point defense currently twin lights in turrets. We’ll see how it turns out.
Ah, I lowballed a bit. I’ll confess to finding the Dreads’ prevalence in Zahn’s EU-kickoff trilogy a skosh contrived. Plus, those Dread-derived ‘Assault Frigates’ seem almost as randomly-interpreted as the MC80 line. Your initial shaping already seems sleeker than prior official renditions, so best of luck managing this star-whale’s barnacles accordingly.

Could Assault Frigates (Mk I and II) be far behind?
It was canon in the EU that there would be a lot of different variants of the Dreadnaught. Different systems would put their own spin on them and modify them or build variants to suit their needs

Rendili Dreadnaught had a lot different models like this http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/ru.starwars/images/c/c4/8f9df563767b.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100414185519 or this http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/ru.starwars/images/b/bc/Rendili_Coruscant.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20160615172059
And yes, turbolasers are great
I would say they are the same model…just different artists interpretations.

This is AMAZING!
Base on this model you can model rebel modifided variant http://starforge.info/data/uploads/rebellion-ships/assault-frigate-mark-2-1.jpg !
whoa. I love the realization of the turbolaser blisters. awesome.
For some weird reason, I never expected to see a Dreadnought class take the stage on this site. Can’t wait to see how it comes out though.
Haha I love it already. I always think of Thrawn’s Revenge when I see this
