This time it's a bomber, two seats:

Re: Another fat-ass strike craft (WIP)
...Would you call that an assault / attack fighter?  (eg, A-10?)

Perhaps you could jazz-up the end of the nose? Little boring as it is.

How's this for the front?



Poly count is 6377 (6000 limit). Still have a lot of optimizing to do, though :)

Re: Another fat-ass strike craft (WIP)
Love it. I totally dig the off-centre cannon, and the quad really adds something to the nose. Although, that dorsal turret (?) seems a little out of place as it is.

Like the Boanerges, it's ugly, but in a good way. Nice work.  :yes:

 
Re: Another fat-ass strike craft (WIP)
I like it. It looks like it came straight out of starshatter. I think its the.... I dunno what you call them... the tails, fins on the wing ends.
Watch out for the Guns! They'll getcha!

Very nice, love to see how this baby handles in game..................although I agree with Mefustae, this dorsal turret look out of place, maybe a little small and weedy looking. I recommend bulking it up a bit! Otherwise.... :yes:

Missile bays?  (When you get around to finishing it off.)

Re: Another fat-ass strike craft (WIP)
Vewy vewy nice!! Extremely expressive as it is :nod:

Id call it a heavy though, instead of a bomber :P
Yeah, I know you were waiting for a very nice sig, in which I was quoting some very famous scientist or philosopher... guess what?!? I wont indulge you...

Why, you ask? What, do I look like a Shivan to you?!?

I liked the quad turret but IMO maybe you should make that a bit bigger and like said before re-do the dorsal turret.

Re: Another fat-ass strike craft (WIP)
I did make them a little larger - they're supposed to be small caliber, just enough to keep fighters from trailing.

BTW, about the missile bays - this is an older version, but an idea of how the torpedoes will be attached:

Can you give a top-down of the older version with the missile bays?
