Looks cool. Maybe the neck should be a bit shorter, but it's only my feeling.


RE: Xeno VHF. WIP, Tue - Traxit - 12-27-2016

I agree that the neck should be shorter. The wings and cockpit shouldn't be so far apart.


RE: Xeno VHF. WIP, Tue - Swallow - 12-27-2016

It'll get bulcky again then.


RE: Xeno VHF. WIP, Tue - QuinnZai - 12-28-2016

I like that quite a lot but I agree with the others on the length of the ship. Is there no way you could shave off just a few millimeters from the neck without changing the overall design very much? I like the look, I just feel that it seems unnaturally long with the size of its wings.

Or possibly make the neck thinner/curved to compensate for its length.


RE: Xeno VHF. WIP, Tue - Swallow - 12-28-2016

No. It has tiny "wings" to navigate in fields. They serve no purpose but as a weapon mounts. This was the initial request - to keep it as sleek as possible.
Instead I could slightly enlarge to cockpit glass.

Or you could try doing that if it's actually possible design-wise. Keep the actual cockpit as it is, just work on the neck.


RE: Xeno VHF. WIP, Tue - Swallow - 12-28-2016

The neck is a frame already. It is not a bulk.
I suggest to enlarge the cockpit slightly, basically making glass area bigger without changing the shape.


RE: Xeno VHF. WIP, Tue - QuinnZai - 12-29-2016

Okay and what about making the ship thinner then? As in cutting a millimeter out from the center of the ship and pasting the two halves together or squeezing the center just a bit tighter together. If the ship has to have a neck of that length, making it a bit thinner would make it look much more sleek.

Like I said though, this design looks great. If there truly is no way you could make that center part even a slight bit thinner. Then try the cockpit idea. Maybe it's just because I don't know the size of this VHF in comparison a Raven's Talon that I feel that it needs that adjustment.


RE: Xeno VHF. WIP, Tue - Swallow - 12-29-2016

Size can be anything, and the only thing that gives you a feeling of the size is a cockpit or the windows.
