Give me your swift, your sleek, your interceptors yearning to blast Shivans
As some of you may or may not know, mura and I have a mod/campaign in the planning stages, attempting to bring some of the style and spirit of Gurren Lagann to FS. In an effort to give this project a chance of actually being completed, I would like to use already existing community resources whenever possible, so that I won't have to make them or bother some already busy modder with making them.

One of the most important ships needed will be the player's primary fighter: a highly advanced, super fighter meant to stand in for the titular mech in Gurren Lagann. What I'm looking for is something light but not extremely so, like the Perseus for example. Something that looks sleek and fast, but could still hold some ordinance. Also, bonus points if it's red or could be relatively easily retextured to be red.

I've looked through just about everything on FSmods as well as some models dumps and found a few likely candidates, but nothing that has really 'clicked'.

Pictures and links would be most appreciated, but a name is enough. Any ideas for an awesome huge baseship are welcome too, but that's another thread. :)

EDIT: Oh and the Perseus Adv is right out. Sorry to whoever made that, but it really doesn't do it for me.

I'll second the MiG, just play with the tables and see if you can give it a dockpoint.

Yes ,the MiG is a good choice ,but it has enormous poly****.
You want one of a kind hero fighter though ,so it maybe it will not be a problem.

SteveO's Jackal is probably the best interceptor model - if you don't mind the number of animated parts.

Alternatively, you may like the Vampire.  There's a version in Ghost Revenants.  Neither of them are red, but that can be fixed quickly enough.
When the reactor explodes, it's usually a sign that you've taken too much damage.

It's looking like we're going to use the red Ezechiel that JadeHawk made, but keep the suggestions coming. :D

I'm a big fan of Scooby Doo's Heretic interceptor.



Although it looks like the sort of fighter that doesn't carry much payload, and relies on speed and agility to stay alive.

The original Herectic was the second or third best armed fighter in Privateer2...even if one is asking where it has the reactor to power all its guns. ^_^
