I realy like this one, i think it needs some detail in the hole created by that pipe, but this is one of my favorite of yours starship desgins to date (wow bad grammar, goob is gonna execute me)

Nice design. I like it :yes:

But i think that the back wings need to be a bit thinner. Even if they were smoothed they probably would feel a bit fat.

Try blending the wings inot the fuselage and I'd remove the lower (rear) stub wings as they didn't really look right on a canard shape.

Otherwise :yes: the best yet

I like the back very much.
You do have some good design ideas, but I kinda don't like hte way you do the fighters nose.

Yeah, the nose is a little plump. I'd try sharpening it very slightly and moving the tip downwards, like an F15

How's this nose (I also thinned the wings a bit, not noticable though)?
Truth be told, I think I actually like the bubble nose more, but this is pretty cool looking :D

Y'know, I don't know if this is supposed to be a fighter or bomber, BUT if you made a dock point in the nose, it would make an excellent assault transport :)

I think its a fighter.
 
I also think its ugly as hell. And I think that's a good thing.

Nice model

Could be some kind of assault fighter - looks quite sturdy to me, although I don't see any missile hardpoints or similar things...

I suppose these two inlets under the nose are for the engine, right?

Oh, and - looks great!

Thanks all :) The two bulbs in the front are sensor covers, for cameras, IR, etc. :)

So it is supposed to be some kind of recon craft? Or do you want us to find out? ;)

So what about the name then? GTF Voyeur? Aaah....I see...:D

Tried to fix the nastiness in the nose:

Flat:

It's an older model fighter or something...it might be for a campaign idea I'm having...:drevil:
