ScrumbleShip is the most accurate space combat simulation devised to date. Gather resources, construct a capital ship out of individual blocks, then pilot it with AI or human help against other players.

Description
An image of the S.S. Queen Mary Ann under construction. You can't build what you can't see, so I added a few lights.
This is the view from directly behind the ship, just aft of where the main engines will be, looking up toward the bow of the ship far in the distance.

The first thing I said when I saw this image was HOLY S***. Then I imagined it moving, and how large the hanger for this would have to be.
Oh, I wondered what happened to that ship. It has to be good three hundred meters long!
Only 269, so far! I don't know that she'll get to 300 unless something changes in her design that I'm not foreseeing.
Work did stall on her for a while when the new lighting engine was implemented - I simply couldn't see the ship because there was no light! This pic shows the remedy to that problem.
That's already longer than the Hindenburg, so congratulations, you have built the biggest flying object ever made!
Heh, thanks for putting that in perspective for me! Until now I'd been mentally comparing the ship to things like aircraft carriers and buildings - I hadn't thought of it in terms of flying craft before. Guess she is pretty big!
Of course I don't know if I'd call this a "flying" object yet. She's not going anywhere unless someone comes along and gives her a really hard push. :P
