Tyndareos Isometric :lines:

_{click the 'download' thingy if you want a much bigger view!}

The mighty Tyndareos, last surviving battleship of the fallen Torvan Republic. Originally cast as a battlecruiser, modifications during the design and building process resulted in this class being recast as fast battleships, the first of their kind in An'Tetheshya. Four were laid down, but the Tyndareos was the only one even close to complete when the Zaresian Empire launched their invasion. She escaped to the Spindles along with the Silverfish and a ragtag fleet of refugees. Four years later, she is finally ready for action.

Sorry for the WIP on this one, folks, but I realized I'm spending far too much time on something I'm not even going to use for a chapter or two, so it's time to put this one on the back burner for a while. What's left to do is lots of fiddly details; hatches, ladders, ventilation, hull plating, rigging, &c &c &c plus the final details of the shading.

I welcome any critiques on design! Keep in mind, though, that I have very good reasons for having no ventral gun positions on my skyship designs. I can explain if you either want to be bored or are a giant nerd like me.

No 3d models, just old-fashioned isometric perspective.
