csv 3

Well, the Jinx Shipyards has another design. Actually, I do like the asymmetry of it. Like your Junker Salvager (Or whatever you called it). But as a SHF, the thing needs to be quite a bit heavier. It looks to me like it's on par with the Collector for size. The vertical hold and definately the bottom horizontal hold should be made quite a bit bigger, while the bridge stays the same size, showing bulk.

Also, you're armament is pretty big for a CSV,Collector, etc line. Junker ships seem to be quite lightly armed, so even their SHF would have, in my opinion, 4 Class9 and maybe 1 Class4 Turret out the back. Maybe 2xClass9 and 2x Class10.

While I do agree that the texture is a tad on the green side, I still think the Junkers would have the rusty, crusty look even on a new craft. They're salvagers, and salvage is rarely pretty. Also, the "Beard" it has could be a bit smaller and a duller shade of gray.

But overall impression is a good one. Well done as usual.

edit: Upon a second viewing, you've also got the makings of a Junker Bomber if one was needed. A small bridge could be moved to the vertical "hold" area above the intake, and another intake-engine assembly could be made mimicking the port side. Take off the winglets outside, and convert the outer intakes to torp tubes, you've already got the power conduits down, and voila. Just a thought.
