You can't use models from Spore in Freelancer.

Other than that, the actual premise for the model is an interesting one.
With some tinkering, it might make quite a handsome beastie, though it's not exactly reminiscent of the Phantom ships except in paint job.

And, truth be told, I hear Phantoms don't use their ships a lot, since people complain.
They use normal ships that reflect their backgrounds.

All slander aside, this ship just seems very, err, silly to me. I don't exactly know how to put it. The way it's designed just doesn't quite look Freelancerish.

I burnt my hand so that's all the poetry you get today.

*sigh @ people*

Anyway.

To start, I'm terrible at critiquing models, I'm also a terribly picky person.:( Understand that I do appreciate the effort applied (even if people think "Phantoms shouldn't get ships").
So:

Pretty good model for your third attempt. Hmm... Overall shape and design (minus the "wings") reminds me of an A-Wing. Personally, I think those four wings would fit better at the back and angled behind the ship. For now, it doesn't look much like a Phantom ship. Tooo... "Cute" I guess.

although I don't see a reason for the phantoms to need a bomber, I do think that the "X" wings on the front can be incorporated into other potential ships. I think it looks very neat and can bring a new? form of design concepts to disco. And I do mean having those wing things infront of the ship, not on the back, that just makes it look even sweeter.

I think the phantoms need better quality models right across the board, the Ravens Claw and Slipstream are already pretty ugly, so is the Huntress. Someone really needs to redo the whole ship line. Aesthetically, this ship just doesn't look good at all. The whole line are imports at the moment, so they'll probably get replaced in the future.

Yeah, right now pitch black texture => Phantom ship.
Regarding X shapes, for me X = Xeno. And if you look at how the civilian bomber looks from the rear ... it's actually a Xeno ship.

Phantoms could use a bomber - er ... I would use it if there was one. So far every phantom character has a bomber that more or less fits the individual character's background, or history.
