Still a lot of work to do, but it's already advanced enough for me to show it

[Thorn]

Looks like a cross between a Y-Wing, an A-10, and something else that I cant remember the name of, or what its from...
I like it...

[wEvil]

Looking' good...looking very good.

Very tasteful name too

[Darkage]

The engines look like a SW racing pod;)

But it looks damn cool:yes:

[Fineus]

And that seems to be the only problem with it in my opionion, the ship itself looks incredible cool, but the engines look on a lower tech level than the rest of it somehow... Perhaps making them more square than rounded - and making smooth panelling - it'd be more in keeping with the rest of the ship.

But still, A1!

the ship is very low tech. it's the rest of the ship that has to be mofified

yup, the Kamov KA 50 werewolf. this ship is from Kamov too ( in my story line ), and I've called it that way, well, coz I just wanted to (actually, the havoc is Ka54 but anyway, mistakes happen )

looky what I have found

the very, very old first version of it I used it as contest entry for the first HLP model contest.
difference of skills set apart, you can see the design has quite evolved: it has gained a "nose" with a TADS system, wings are more on the back, the regular reactors have been replaced by dual boosters ( forward/backward trust ), the cockpit shape has changed, it now has 3 vectoring panels per engine ( used to have 3 too, but one was removed on the contest version, looked better - it's back because of technical considerations- Also, you can't tell from that render, but the hull of the new version isn't a single big part anymore, the bottom half ( under the wings ) is a quite complicated structure now, and isn't covered by a hull anymore. The engines have gained one more axis of rotation too, and it now has a... dunno how you call that, a thing to allow the ship to refuel in flight ( just behind the cockpit ).

[vyper]

I like the new one. Very nice!
Just one question - how many polys? (Just wondering how close it'll look in a game)

[SlipStream]

The first one looks like a world war 1 or 2 fighter plane. Nice though.

great that's exactly what i want to achieve
If someone thinks that w/o me mentioning it, it means I did it ^_^
Vyper: don't remember and don't feel like checking, anyway I think it's not that high, but still way too much for FS2 anyway.

[Styxx]

Nice model you have there, damn cool retro feeling.

How much time did you spend on it? I'm just curious...
