HIGHWIND - Final Fantasy VII Airship

Description
(experimental mode only)

Highwind is an airship from Final Fantasy VII, released in 1997 for Play Station 1.

Final Fantasy VII remake was released in 2020, but the first part happens before the Highwind appearance, so we don't have any information about the Highwind remake version.

Uncle Ulty built Highwind based on original sketches, artworks, CGI, and in-game images.

All original rooms were built in this blueprint
Some nonofficial corridors and rooms were built by Uncle Ulty in order to make Highwind a functional ship for Starship EVO.

This ship has a hangar designed to transport the Tiny Bronco, already available in Uncle Ulty workshop.

The original airship doesn't have landing gear, which I had to design by myself. I don't recommend landing this airship outside a flat surface such as an airport.

@Explicitly Offensive Cuneiform. I'd love to build, but this would cost me a free time that I no longer have... I've started to build The Highwind in May, and only finished in September, in a big hurry...

fugg, are you going to do the ragnarock from FFVIII next?

@Lt.Starbound thanks! This ship appers on FFVII and in Smash Bross for switch, in FFVII stage.

@Dolan Thanks! I dedicated a lot of time in this one xD

Absolutely stunning work! So many gorgeous details!

I know nothing about this ship but I love how you did the plating and the rivets!

That's why I said I'd pass Ragnarok, cuz I would not make it less than the Highwind.

Well.... that thing is reeeally big 0_0
So much detail.

Whaddya mean you aren't going to make the Ragnarok, it doesn't look too difficult.. ;)

I made the Goodyear blimp in Emp, but for the landing gear, I found the exact center of mass and used a single 'foot'. I would have done that on the Highwind, for luls.

Yeah, these huge builds takes a lot out of ya. Especially when it's an honour-replica

(haven't loaded the game yet)
For the interior in Empyrion, I was going to make the cockpit as a small ship that's attached to the big ship hull with landing struts, then put the catwalk on one wall, with the rooms on the other, above the engine. I did make a Chocobo hovercraft though :)

about Ragnarok: I pass...

this ship consumed me some months, I'm really really tired

Jolan, you made the right questions!!! ding ding ding! I had to improvise to make it a functional ship, but maintaining the original feeling!

also, the interior is too big for its Gondola size! Just watch the internal space proportions to the characters, and watch the cgi after leaving the north crater. Outside, the ships seem smaller than the inside!

I had to think on all these details you spoke of!

I'm gonna upload more photos.
