The 'Wench is an 'Ugly': an amalgamation of different ships to form one, odd whole. With the central core of a ore loader and the surrounding hub stolen from a Russian stealth gunship, the 'Wench mixes a rugged centre with a high-tech ring around it, the latter able to cycle power levels at the whim of it's captain and fire it's main weapons for sustained periods.

A commerce raider, the 'Wench is often employed by the highest bidder in trade conflicts between the Sol cartels. It's exclusively female crew are famous for their fidelity to a contract, whilst never forgetting a double-cross.

Length: 133m

Crew: 24-40, mission dependent.

Armament: 2 x fast tracking ion turrets, 2 x Armour-Piercing STS cannons, 2 x forward-facing M-66 Pulverisers.

Computer: Kolnanov XV (Salvaged from the ship's hub)

An interesting idea, I would like it even more if the red studs were covered, but that's just me.

I like the large hub you put on it, but you can't see it in the main picture as well - I like this shot better:

I also like how you have that red strip down the middle and the brown highlights on the hub - and I'm always a fan of backstories
