For the massive amount of surface area on this model, there's practically no internal volume.
I don't deny that. I just assert that it's an illogical design (which, from above, looks more Shadow than Vasudan).
I also assume it's remote-controlled, since the engine clearly occupies the cockpit.
I think it's from a concept I did during a Professional Issues lecture, of all things.... no idea where the actual design comes from....it is suppossed to look odd though (alien, heehee
)
and there is pilot space I think, because the pilot can stand more or less upright in the cockpit (bit like a Starfury in that way - all the subsystems are grouped in the 'arms', which kind of protect the engine.
It's about 700 polys (LOD0), which
is a bit highg... unfortunately, one of the textures seems to have become doublesided, so I can't boolean weld it in TS5. So LOD1 is the untriangulated LOD1, and LOD2 was collapsed in 3d Max, and does look a bit odd in modelview (but not long range, thank god).
but it was a nightmare to UV Map, and some of it is a bit buggy (nothing major you can really see if you didn't make it though - just 1 or 2 planes).
