On Reddit, three artists put their designs for Thomas the Tank Engine, The Magic School Bus, and aStar WarsStar Destroyer on theStarfieldsubreddit. First, a Reddit user named MrCaine332 posted his design of the blue tank engine. Though theStarfieldrecreation has no face, the OP managed to keep Thomas' short, stumpy dome and used six landing pads in place of the wheels. Some users compared the ship tofamous Thomas the Tank Engine mods in gamessuch asSkyrim.
By comparison, a Reddit user named SP7R channeled their inner Miss Frizzle and created The Magic School Bus as a ship. The ship retained the titular bus' yellow color and installed some thrusters on the rear. This made the ship look similar to one of the bus' space-faring modes from the TV show. As for the Star Destroyer, a user named Jackygold saidthey used mods forStarfieldto break the ship-building limits put in place, which allowed them to make the Imperial ship as true to form as possible. Despite the Star Destroyer’s massive size, Jackygold said they could turn the ship on a dime and managed to land the ship safely in a spaceport, though they regretted their inability to make the ship any slower.
All three entries received upvotes on theStarfieldsubreddit, with The Magic School Bus from SP7R receiving over 6k upvotes in half a day. With plenty ofoptions for customizing and building ships inStarfield, the possibilities of whatplayers can create are seemingly only limited by imagination.
Starfieldis available now for PC and Xbox Series X/S.
