Bulldog Replacement

[Cellulanus]

It looks like a space sports car.

Did you even look at a single image after the first one? Or would that have muddied up your quest for another +1.

your country must have a warped view of sports cars. Where I come from, they generally tend to be more aerodynamic =P

I looked through the entire thread, and it still looks like some sort of crazy sports car.

Like I said, space sports car, doesn't necessarily have to be aerodynamic.



EDIT: I might as well add something constructive, the model looks good, but not very crazy about the textures its got.

Yeah, keep the bulldog and just add this if it is really needed. I have one and really like it. I know the few that actually fly it, want it as-is. I would say this would work as a new ship, but not a replacement.

Hm. Imho the vessel looks pretty small due to the big cockpit section. Maybe make the cockpit a little smaller? (either in the textures or by altering the model itself)

I agree 100%! As a junker I fly one since its my break from the csv and collector, Its got that charm you know. A lot of people will compare junkers to mechanics, yeah they have the beaten up truck they drive around (csv and other lookalikes) but most have a muscle car in their garage at home they love to tinker with thats sporty.

Please dont change the bulldog unless it is a touch up to the current model. This though would make a great light fighter.

Sorry for the double post but I thought a lot more on what makes the bulldog look so good compared to the rest of the junker line, and I felt it needed its own post.

1. Its very sleek. Where all the other junker ships are boxy utilitarian with a hint of military helecopter thrown in this one is sleek low and very sexy. If you make a replacement please make it like this.

2. Its engines are far apart. I know myself prefer two engines about the width of what about what an A-wing in star wars has, this is a very unique look. Compared to the single engine (if you put a couple engines right together they are gonna just blend in when the engine effects start going) the double engine just sets it apart compared to three engines close together.

3. The blocky army helecopter cockpit vs the swooping windshield of the current bulldog. As I mentioned in my previous post its the muscle car thats tinkered with in the garage of the junkers. The sweeping windshield really gives a feel of speed and is the best part on the entire current design. Where if your looking at the common junker cockpit it just says "Slow sturdy truck" where the bulldog has no use in the scrap but to defend it or take out enemies outside of it.

4. Its fighter jet looking. The bulldog doesnt have the same goal as most of the junker line. Its the swoopy speeder of the bunch that has no role but killing and looking good.



What I would want in a bulldog replacement. I know you love gallia and so do I especially the brigands. I want you to go buy on the other server a cuirassier. The ship is amazing for two reasons, one those engine pods that the brigands and corse use are the coolest things in the entirety of discovery, secondly it just looks fast and the problem I have with your model is it doesnt look fast at all.

My thoughts? Take a airplane like nose and make it flat, use the a-wing and current bulldog for guidance. Then I would suggest coming back to two engine pods that are pretty close to the body (a lot of people like the bulldog besides its looks for how hard it is to hit). Just some ideas but I will sell my bulldog if that goes live and get a raven's talon or some such. I love the dog for the reasons stated above and its my junker's sports car he looooves to fiddle with. You change it to look like his truck he drives around for work he would dump the thing in a heartbeat sorry to say.
