From cozy little ships to colossal space trucks capable of hauling countless tons of cargo,Starfieldplayers have built all kinds of shipssince the game was released toward the beginning of September. Featuring over 1,000 unique worlds, most of which can be landed on and explored on foot, it’s no wonder that many considerStarfieldto boast the vastest world from Bethesda Game Studios yet.

Building stuff has proven to make for a particularly prevalent playstyle among fans, withcreativity thriving among theStarfieldcommunityas fans share their incredible ship, outpost, and character creations online. This time, one talented starship engineer known as Ill_Impression_4703 was able to replicate the A10 “Warthog” Thunderbolt II aircraft as a ship inStarfield, using the game’s extensive ship customization options to capture the shape and color of the real-life combat aircraft. They completed the project by adding several ballistic cannons to the weapon hardpoints beneath the ship’s wings, as well as multiple missile launchers. While the creator didn’t use any mods to complete this design, they did make use of several “glitch building” methods to make certain ship parts clip into each other.
Fans have been able to recreate countless iconicships from popular culture franchises inStarfieldso far, such as the Millennium Falcon fromStar Warsand the Swordfish fromCowboy Bebop. Aside from ship replicas, players have also been able to bring no end of wild ship designs to life using only the options provided by the base game, with one fan even creating several ships in the image of certain Pokemon.
In addition to ships, fans have also let their creativity run wild by building gigantic planetary bases of their very own, and even customizinghilarious customStarfieldcharactersto make them look like cartoon characters or even real-life celebrities. With previous Bethesda games famously receiving fantastic mod support from the community, only time will tell how much crazier players’Starfieldships will get in the future with the help of mods.
