Black Wolf helped me out with the texturing on this thing, and I'm thinking about POFing it for release.  Thoughts (more pics if you click the link, I'm trying to watch the bandwidth) and comments?

And before anyone says it, it is supposed to be atmospheric capable, thus the wings.  Tenative name, GTF Daedalus.

Cocpit is an interesting design... Nice to have another 2 seater out there, with the Losna.

BTW; Feel free to ask for space from Hippo. He has plenty of subdomains he can give out, and there's ftp access. It's fairly reliable, too.

Maybe it's my Homeworldy mood, but the back seriously reminds me of the Taiidan Interceptor.

Very nice, clean design.

  • Dude, I love it. Its gorgeous.



Strat, I can't decide. I either love it or I hate it, either way it looks like a damn fine piece of work. :D

It's got that arrowhead feel to it, which would warrant straighter edges and a wider span on the body, but I guess it's alright.

Looks pretty good...nice and smooth. Like a modern day space shuttle actually.

Looks like it would do well for atmospheric entry ala the shuttle, except the people in the cockpit would get burned to a crisp. Thank God for shields, eh? :p

At least it's named for the guy who *didn't* drown. ;)

Looks nice. I like it. :yes:

I'd have tryed to make an hole in the wings around the canopy, starting from the red stripe, with the shape of the wings that will remain the same. Pretty nice, anyway

One bump to that glass cockpit....

It looks fine otherwise, though.

He already thought of that. Note the second cockpit.

The first one is just padding, to keep the inertial dampeners from having to work too hard if he bumps into anything. :p

Looks good Strat.  I think you should make a true model out of it for FS2.

I've yet to add a cockpit to it, but yes I'll ultimately release it too.  And I agree, it's the better of the two.
