Firefly 'O3 "Serenity" [CV]

Description
This is my attempt to be as faithful as possible to the Firefly O3 design. I hope that, like me, you've always wanted to walk the halls of Serenity and here I think you can finally do it. Enjoy!

Resources:
Iron Ingot: 5300
Sathium Ingot: 1280
Cobalt Ingot: 930
Silicon Ingot: 690
Copper Ingot: 660
Wood Planks: 80
Neodymium Ingot: 80
Plastic Raw Material: 60
Zasconium Ingot: 10
Erestrum Ingot: 10

Time: 4h 15m (normal)


Errata:
1) Additional windows on the bridge - Fixed (extra windows removed)
2) Main vehicle hangar bay airlook; not really a way to faithfully recreate this so I used a small hangar door and a ramp. I may change this later.
3) Exterior modeling is sketchy at best; this was a real challenge due to the limitations in blocks shapes
4) Med Bay is too big; passenger quarters are too few to small and not well placed. This is largely due to how crowded that area of the ship is; also, the stairs that bracket the med bay can't come down from the main deck any steeper so big med bay,
5) Missed a few spots with the paint gun; sue me - Fixed
6) Starboard bridge Solar panel misplaced
7) Flies like a pig ( no offense to pigs)
8) Consumes a tremendous amount of energy
9) Exterior detaling and paint needs to be done

Enhancements:
1) Shuttle docking bays enhanced

This is an awesome mod. As a fan of the show, I thank you.

Having said that, due to differences between the two 'verse, this simply lacks too many things while rather complicated navigate. Should this be a multiplayer vehicle meant to house a crew of 8 flying in the firefly 'verse, this would be downright awesome. Flying this in the Empyrion universe, the ship has a lot of decoration (adding weight and volume) with no warp drive or defensive system. I was sad to realize that this ship would never leave the system it spawned from and could not travel the 'verse with me.

Thank you again for the work. You have done a great job.

P.S. so... is it possible to place an airlock at the cargo area where Jayne almost got sucked out of by Cap? :D

THX !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Adding now !!!!!!!!!!!!!! So many MODS, all 100 % Rock Solid Steady never any C.T.D.'s Wow ! Wish Skyrim was like this stability wise.............

PS.... This is a big one.... Do you think we can addin Real working Avionic and moving pilots controls like stearing yokes, pedals, H.U.D.'s and have it all work for real not just static pictures....

From my Flight Simulator FS98 - to FSX(Steam Version) I know that such items use very little CPU / GPU from any system, even in 1998 slot one systems, never had even vague difficulty in running the most complex flight computers and fully fleshed avionics.... So if we add it in to this baby, It's going to Rock like never before !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully this'll come with a more reinforced windshield than the original. And yes, I went there.

Great shape and captures the major set pieces well, save engineering, which is one giant blob of metal. I'm looking forward to the exterior re-work, as that's the only downside, looks wise. (Also: needs some reverse thrusters!)
Great base to work from among all the Serenities I've seen. Thanks.

man, it's beyond cool! You are god of ship constructing! I made a survival version using your build, if you don't mind =)

I absolutely love this, Breave. You've done such a good job! I was always curious about the interior layout of the Serenity, as I have a hard time reading the technical documents I find online (my trouble is mostly figuring out how to the decks correlate to each other). This has given me a clear picture and it's wonderful being able to walk the halls :D Thumbs up and subbed!

I always feel like the theme song should play each time I enter the ship.. lol I wish there was a way, would be great for many ships eg: Death March for the Death Star, ect. Yeah theres a few Serenity Builds out there, now I want a practical one, with the cool of the Ship without the useless rooms for beds ect, though certainly pretty, I want one for War.

This was done as more as nostalgia piece and so I placed importance on being true to the interior first and exterior second. In regards to the warp drive, I was struggling with finding a location in the ship that didn't break the interior or look wrong on the exterior; so put it aside for the time being. In regards to it not flying well; I believe I was clear from the beginning that it didn't fly well.

I want to thank you all for your honest appraisals.

I'm going to sub to play with in creative, I think the issues are minor and I will have some fun with it! I like it when these are not quite done. I am not all that creative myself but I sure can modify and paint it to my liking! To the author: I won't publish it's just for a little fun in creative, thanks for this!
