So, here is it, straight from the Machina Terra ovens (yes, we bake our ships). It's still on texturing stage - this is more of a placeholder until my computer stops crashing every 15 seconds - so bear with me, please.
 

 


And yes, the name means that it's a fighter capable of both space and atmospheric flight (like the Thunderbolt on B5)...

[Taristin]

the design looks cool, lets see if the texures live up to it  

[Martinus]

Nice work as usual Styxx, you got the terran look nicely.

MT just seems to get more and more interesting

Hi Ho, Hi Ho, it's handgrenades we throw...

[Bobboau]

I don't think it lives up to your other work, but I'll hold out untill you texture it.

Bobboau, bringing you products that work.............. in theory

Reminds me of the Ordos Advanced Carryall only its blue and not green in colour.

How many polies is it? Because, if you could, I think the cocpit needs to be rounder...

Just a suggestion. Looks real good, tho.

Pretty nice. But maybe there should be a rule that if the name is longer than the ship, you need to trim a few designations...

j/k. It's cool.

...awaiting texes.  

[Stryke 9]

Sorry. I'm not in a nice mood tonight. You know, it kinda looks like the Descent plane (I think, never bought the game). maybe you should talk to whoever it was making a series of Descent mods...

That was my fault actually.  

He told me to give him a name, so I gave him 'P-117 Raptor IV'.  The 'Transat Fighter' is simply a description.

Slightly improved textures:

   


Thanks for all the feedback up to now. I know the texture is not yet at an acceptable level, but I'm improving. As you may imagine, it's the first time I ever mapped a fighter model (only worked on capships up to now), and it's way different from what I'm used to.

I appreciate any suggestions about the textures, but the model is exactly how I wanted it to be (sorry if I disappointed anyone here), so I won't mess with it...

[NeoHunter]

Woah. I'm gone for lunch and you did a great job with the textures.

Why donb't you render it in a nice picture with backgrounds like nebulas and planets and stars? Most of us here do it. It wil really make your fighter stand out.

I love it. That's exactly the kind of texture I've (unsuccessfully) tried to make for some of my fighters.

[Stryke 9]

[phreak]
