GTF/SOF Banshee, by Aldo.  Very fast fighter, so I like to use it when taking screens.  It's either on HLP or F2S, though I can't remember where.

No, not superblue.  Just Long Range Blue, but still very powerful.  Those guns hardly fire, unless there is a target above forward or below aft.

I thought Venom made the Banshee...

 
It looks better in action! (did you cut the spur length? looks better now just enough to contain the enegy ball - warmup). Talk about a facelift for the Archangel! I for one am defiantely keeping my eyes on this thread for when it's ready! ;)
Don't think of it as being outnumbered. Think of it as having a wide target selection !

Those light panels are too big, imo.  Instead of a few lights in important areas it just becomes a smear of colors and kills the effect, IMO.

Just a point I felt I had to mention.

I 've no words to congratulate you StratComm!!!

The Archangel is by far the better Colossus size ship designed........

Those new turrets are great!!!

A long time ago, few after the first release of the Archangel, you showed a Vasudan like ship.

I don't remember well now, but I guess it was supposed to be the Archangels counterpart.

Am I mistaken??? What happen to that Vasudan Beauty??

Sorry, I didn't read about the GVD Hedetet.......

I was speaking about that beauty!!!!

I was mistaken, It's a destroyer and not the counterpart for the Archangel....... But it is by far an excellent vasudan design, it has the Hatshesput lines.... great!!!

Still waiting for an Archangel's counterpart...... Maybe the next design from StratComm??? How knows???

There are already several ships in his fleet, but the best counterpart would have to be the Phoenix carrier. I really think you should check out his webpage.

*wonders why Stratt thought we rejected it*

meh. it's all good.

I did notice something. Those two forawrd beams are right above the fighter bay. Wouldn't that kinda suck if you were launching in the middle of a battle and got uh.. fried ?

Edit: err... isn't this the wrong thread su? :p

Whoa, very nice indeed! Swivelling beam turrets have never looked this good. Did you sort out the slight geometry problems on the model as well, StratComm?

Kudos on the Hedetet too. It's the best Vasudan capship I've seen without a doubt.
