r/NMSBlenderBuilds

Hey everyone! Just wanted to share my latest creation with you all. I hope you like it.

It's an imaginary hybrid concept I came up with—kind of mixing the look of a crab and a scorpion, but inspired by the classic Enterprise shape. I improvised the crab's vice-grip claws into a semi-claw style, paired it with a mechanical dragon tail, and reworked the rest with a starship-inspired saucer head, body, and warp nacelles. Just had fun re-improvising everything using available parts. Let me know what you think!

(Note for the comments: Please do respect that I play completely solo and keep my network settings disabled. I never take this ship to the anomaly, so no save files or game files can ever be corrupted or harmed. I just love creating starships and corvettes, and I also like using Blender. I don't really mingle a lot with people—I just wanted to showcase this and let people see what I can build. If you want to see my corvette in-game, you can just message me and we can meet up, but again, I won't be bringing it to the anomaly!)

Inspired by the dead man tell no tale

Kapitan salazar and the Phantom of the Black Tides

The story of Kapitan Salazar: Phantom of the Black Tide and his kinship with The Drowned Carcass is rooted in an ancient, twin pact made with the dark deep.

He was no ordinary officer, but a master naval strategist and tactician of the sea who stood entirely undefeated. He commanded the waters with an iron fist, tearing through royal navies, man-o-wars, and pirates alike. Blinded by insatiable greed, a massive coalition of British fleets, rival navies, and privateers ultimately joined forces just to bring him down, finally shattering his ship to splinters.

Left in ruin upon a desolate island choked with sunken wrecks and carcasses, a cataclysmic meteor struck him from the sky, fusing with the dead creatures of the shore and granting him terrifying new power.

While The Drowned Carcass wields the ability to steal human souls and act as a deceptive beacon, Kapitan Salazar commands a mechanical engine of absolute destruction. When the cosmic impact resurrected him, his ship was reborn into a nightmarish vision of iron and bone: a sprawling, multi-tiered galleon featuring towering masts stacked high with pristine white-and-orange sails, fused directly to an elongated, prehistoric mechanical newt-alligator. Its terrifying hull is lined with segmented, skeletal rib-structures and ancient fossil wings that can unfold to block out the light, while a glowing, radiant cross-like beacon pierces the dark mists. Having methodically hunted down and eradicated every last one of his enemies for revenge, his hunger did not end at the horizon. The nightmare fleet broke past the waves, soaring upward through the sky and into the cold expanse of space, eternally craving new battles to conquer.

The iron ribs of the phantom fleet do not rise from the deep by chance alone; they are conjured first in the quiet theater of the mind, where imagination weaves what the waking world fears to touch. A ship cannot cast its shadow across the ink-black water unless its soul has already been built in the silent dark behind the eyes. Every bolt, every spine, and every terrifying curve is born from a story waiting to be told—because only what lives first in the imagination can ever be hammered into iron and bone.

Before the timber rots or the engines lines,

A thousand phantoms haunts the markers minds.

For the hall of dread and rib an ancient stone

Is shaped by the stories that are live alone;

And if the vision sleeps within the brain,

No ship will ever rise to rule the main.

Using blender

Hey everyone! I wanted to share a project I've been working on: three distinct airship designs built using Blender and in-game tools.

​Since these are high-part-count builds (mostly due to dense pipe supply lines and small iconic electronics that multiply when attached), these ships are strictly for offline play, screenshots, and photo showcasing. They will never make an appearance at an Anomaly spawn or a Corvette meetup.

​Here is a breakdown of the three designs:

​1. Salazar's Vengeance (Base Version)

​Part Count: ~3,800 parts

​Details: This is the foundational design. It focuses heavily on a detailed interior layout and structural baseline.

​2. Dreamscape Jazz Fandango (Festival Version)

​Part Count: ~4,200 parts

​Details: A flashier, more vibrant iteration. This version turns up the atmosphere with extra exterior lights, decorations, and festival vibes.

​3. Symphony of the Midnight Carnival (Castlevania-Inspired)

​Part Count: ~5,300 parts

​Details: The most feature-packed build of the three. It features a town-and-castle vibe at the back complete with a windmill, heavily inspired by Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

​Layout & Features:

​Features two castles at the back (making up part of the town/castle structure) and is currently still under renovation!

​Fully Functioning Teleporters: There are multiple working teleporters taking you seamlessly from the main ship into the castle. Specifically, the first and second floors of the two castles house a total of 4 functioning teleporters connecting back and forth.

​Landing Pads: Equipped with a total of 5 landing pads—4 located on the ship itself, plus 1 exclusive personal landing pad situated right at the castle.

​Hope you all enjoy the photo showcase! Let me know which design is your favorite.
