So I tried to make a ship that wasn't lol-vulnerable and the result is something uglier then a borg cube.

I feel like throwing up after spending 40 minutes on this.

The UG-59 remains in service with Eurusuia, mostly in the reserve and second line units, and export customers.

I like it but it seems that there isn't enough room for the driver.

Crab Interstellar Welkin-class freighter
Though far from the biggest freighters around, the Welkin-class are still massive. Carrying eight colossal cargo containers per ship (shown here with the side four removed for a better view), a convoy of these can move a truly staggering amount of materiel, be it food, minerals, or consumer products.

Fun fact:
Welkin-class ships can rotate their aft set of container pylons around the central hull, creating artificial gravity if needed.

How do you avoid shooting your own turrets?

They don't fire unless FCS gives the order that the shot is clear and lined up. Cheating but the ship is mostly A.I controlled so human error isn't a factor. The ship when facing dead on is supposed to act like a huge Void Ray from starcraft 2 so it's deadly head on and from the broadside.

In actuality, the pencil tool and a lot of patience. And preferably a different program, like Paint.NET.

I recommend a 3 step program.
1) Open up the paint program of your choice. (MS Paint, Paint.NET, or kid pix)
2) Draw.
3) Repeat.

But seriously though the only way to really learn it is to do it yourself and improve over time.

I can't help but feel that mounting the rear turrets at higher elevations would be far simpler.

It would also give the ship far more effective head-on firepower.

Don't use paint if better alternatives present themselves. Use something that has layers, aka gimp, photoshop, paint dot net, SAI, et cetera. The free programs work as good as the better ones for lineart.

Step 1: Draw.
Step 2: Hang head in shame as you realize you can't.
Step 3: Repeat steps 1 and 2 until you can.
Step 4: If you want to (to make sketching many times easier), get a cheap drawing tablet. This works better with the more deluxe software (read photoshop cs6/cc) than with the cheaper stuff, but *just* the feel of the pen helps tremendously with drawing.
