I thought it looked a bit like this fighter but after looking at the GWOM shots, they don't look very similar. In fact, now that I look at this more closely, this one looks like a stretched out TIE fighter with the ball cockpit replaced by a Viper cockpit. I'm sure Richard did this so he could reuse the Viper cockpit mockup he had made for Second Coming.



I've pretty well finished the modeling except for the pod connections. They'll go into the slots on the sides. I intended the pods to be rigged so the pilot can jettison them if he's fired everything on them and still in combat.

Here's the dreaded gray renderings. (These are dreaded for the modeler because you can see all the flaws in modeling this way).

This gives me two models now I need to texture, the other being the AB Raider.








Thanks all for the feedback. I found it very useful while working on this.
