gmg freighter

[Zukeenee]

I'm not that fond of the slimness here, really. I like the idea of a slightly wider, bulkier freighter, perhaps with cargo pods strapped to the sides. Having the pods trail behind the ship makes it seem less like a freighter and more like a micro-train. Although, I suppose there's nothing wrong with a micro-train, really.

I do like that first picture of your earlier GMG freighter that Dusty posted a while back. Obviously, that old model as it is looks way too combat-ish, but the general short and bulky look that it has going seems nice to me.

But with all that said, I think I could more easily accept this model, slimness and all, even with just a few changes. Personally, I'd rather see the cargo pods being placed more directly underneath the ship, as opposed to behind it. Also, the way the are now, they just don't look all that securely fastened to the freighter. There ought to be more support for the cargo. I think that the Aurochs pulls this off nicely enough. It has a modular cargo unit that look like it's easy to pick up and drop off, but it doesn't give the impression that it'll snap and fly off whenever the freighter makes a turn.
