I think it needs something more on the bottom

my opinion, on the both of them, is that they need more detail.
The rogue transport especially...needs to have more than one armor plate per side....and it would fit the rogue theme better if they were askew from the rest of the ship.

Not to come back to dooms ship but it is based off of this piece of original concept art.

Ahem, back on topic...

Mohr, I think it looks a lot better now, though it wasn't exactly what I had in mind. I was thinking more along the lines of three or four sets of 'open' ribs, like those on the Sabre (only a bit larger). A good place to place turret mounts. But it's your ship, and I do think it looks better now than it did.

Oh, those type of ribs... :$

Okay, on the border world one, maybe add one or two of the "other" kind of ribs to the front bottom. Add an outcrop of sensor entenne (sp?) to the front end under the nose. Add some "cargo pods" somewheres on the ship as well; just small ones, not like container transport.

Should the "ribs" on top stay, be changed to the "correct" kind, or be removed entirely?

On the pirate transport; add the engines. Add some rudder type fins on/near the engines. Make the panels arounf the containers more detailed; look like they are multiple panels welded together or connected by pilons. Add a small panel on top and bottem for gun mounts. Add detail to the paneling on the main part of the ship to have the same "welded panels" look as the panels around the container.

Will this still be acceptable as a corsair transport after the changes, or will it look too much like a Bloodhound style ship?

Anyways, thank you for your continued assistance. Please tell me if these changes would be good or bad. Also, if a change was not mentioned, please advised.

As long as it keeps a somewhat Corsair style, it should be great.

The Bactrian is like the Bloodhound and its only sold at Leon Base so I think it'd be fine.

The Bactrian is an updated Mule, kinda like the Templar being an updated Crusader. I would have liked the developers to make updated versions of the Dromedary and house freighters (for RP reasons), but they seem to be preoccupied with other things.

If you don't know what the Mule is, land on Alcatraz in California. It's been there since vanilla FL came out..
