been a while since I made a fighter
I textured the cockpit to make it easier to see it. If I texture it, I will Redo the those maps. :sigh:

Here's an idea I've been considering.
space superiority / hit & run attack vessel. basically speed and agiltiy of the perseus (somehow :rolleyes: ), but with missle banks designed to hold 2 - 4 helios (no other type of missles. Maybe dumbfire), or something. Get in - deliver payload - get out.




I think I need some more extrusions, though.

Looks more like it would be something of a gunboat...like a Skipray Blastboat or something. Not a fighter. Kinda reminds me (somehow :rolleyes: ) of that monster of a bomber that they're using in BWO.

Mal: Define "interesting".

Mal: This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then... explode.

I may slim the cockpit down, but it stays for now. I'll look into it, tho. :)

I like it, the cockpit is a bit strange indeed, but it isn't bad. The model is also different and it's good. :nod::yes:

intresting, intresting....:yes:

I like the helios idea, but i think a bomber as manuverable as a perseus which only carries huge torpedoes would be a waste of manuverablity.
Give it a high top speed however, say 75m/s and boost to 155ms with good afterburner reserves.
Kind of like a strike/assult bomber, fast but powerful.

That looks like one mean fighter. Kinda reminds me of something out of Star Wars.

I think it would look better with either a Perseus, or Athena-style cocpit.

Well I actually like the cockpit, it gives it a sort of exotic look. A very nice model, very FSish ;)

Has a nice Kushan cloaked fighter feel to it.  Very nice. :)

Cool ship, but I also think the cockpit doesn't fit the style of the rest of the ship...
Probably away. Contact through email.

Nice ! :)
But don't forget that you'll need some HUGE launchers to handle the Helios. :nod:
Just fly on !

Anything besides the cockpit.. err.. issue that I should look at?

If not then I'll put the untextured one up for download later today. :)
Then You can worry about texturing it. :p

As I did these maps, it occured to me, that I suck @ PS :D
more practise, I guess

i think its sick. maybe add some "spikey extrusions" on the sides.

It reminds me of the Star Wolf Ships (first set) in Star Fox 64
