 It;s proportionally very big compared to the rest of the ship, it could just as easily be a multi-crewed transport as a fighter IMO.


That cockpit is at least 4 times the one of the Falcon in Starwars :p

There... Happy, now?

EDIT: Yes, they are both the same size. One is a copy of the other, so they're the same.

If they are 1.8 tall the ship is definitly bigger than 13 meters cause than the ship would be 7.2 people tall, however AFAIS it is roughly 10-12 people long at least....so something is off with the scale - however it is still a lot better than it initially was.

IMHO you could move the weapons officer up to the cockpit rear wall. You may also experiment with some harness/console around him that would cover the rest of the space - remember you're in the navy now...they take no such luxury as unused space.

The unused space and 2d 3d chair don't look too hot, but it's a good idea.

Actually, I rescaled it a bit... It's larger than 13 meters, but I'm unsure of how big it is as of this moment, because modelview is being a bugger and not loading any files...

2nd 3d chain, or 2d 3d chair?  Either way, it'll look better through the barely visible orange cocpit.
