If you've got a heavier looking one (and are willing to wait the inordinate amount of time I normally take ;)) I'd be willing to round out the trio with a heavy assault fighter...

How about a bomber?  I've lost the pics online but I can try to find (and post/PM) them when I get home.  I can add a pair of gunports to the Draco and make it heavy assault (the wings store weapons... yeah... :nervous:) so that we do have a set.

I thought the Draco would be Space Sup, this obviously the Interceptor, leaving a spot for heavy assault. Though that could be a dual role heavy Assault Light bomber I suppose, ala the Athena.

You're right, I'm trying to merge classes.  But the bomber is a medium-heavy bomber, Medusa inspired but with enough bay space to look more like an Ursa.  None of this block with ball cockpit garbage of FS2 bombers ;)

EDIT: I can't find any valid links.  The one I can post is this one, and from this angle they're not that different.  Anyway, two variants to play with, or not.


Or I could ditch the bomber and put together a third heavier fighter.  It's really up to you BW, if you have a preference and are willing to give one a stab at some point :)

They look different enough to warrant two separate classes - bomber and Heavy Assault.

Startcom, on the original pic I love the mid section of the fuselage and the rear assembly (tails engines) keep that look. I'd like to see a whole line of fighters with that exact feature, but with diff wings and cockpits!!!!

So, I've been working on this little project again.  The interceptor hasn't changed, so go back to the first page to see shots of it.  Then there's the Draco (space superiority), which I've finally gotten around to sticking a cockpit in.


And finally, though I just tried contacting BW about this this afternoon and haven't yet gotten a response, a heavy assault fighter.  It's got a UV map, but no textures.






Once this thing gets done, I'm going to pack the three up and release them together.

I think the wingtips on the third one need to come back down, but other than that, three nice models there. :)

Crikey man, you've got some excellent design and talent going on there. Kudos!

A little constructive crits if I may though. Especially where the first model you posted is concerned. The top and the bottom just don't seem to match. That is to say - the top wings are angular and pointy. The bottom is almost like a boats hull in its smoothness. I think it would be better to go with one or the other... angular or smooth. Mixing them looks wrong to me.

Actually the one textured above reminds me more of a SHROUD from Starlancer than Wing Commander... Guess that's why I like it.

it does look a lot like a Shroud, but then again, it also looks a lot like a Dralthi. Which looks a lot like a Shroud.

Dionysus

Roman name Bacchus. See The Olympians for more information and another picture.
Dionysus was the god of wine, the son of Zeus and Semele, and the rescuer of Ariadne after she had been abandoned by Theseus. Dionysus also rescued his mother from the Underworld, after Zeus showed her his true nature as storm god and consumed her in lightning. It was Dionysus who granted Midas the power to turn whatever he touched into gold, then was kind enough to take the power back when it proved inconvenient.
 

Danaides

The fifty daughters of King Danaus of Argos, who were married on a single occasion to fifty suitors. As instructed by their father, all but one of them murdered their husbands on their wedding night. As a result, they were condemned to an afterlife of unending labor, carrying water from the Styx in leaky jars.
