LH LF. WIP, Wed (Done: VHF, Bomber)

[nOmnomnOm]

so like I was forced to post because some derp thinks if I dont post then we dont get the ship and I think that way of thinking is stupid but I got nagged

The engines are still the same

1. Weapon mount. I agree that the weapon mount would be better placed closer to the ship main axis.
   
2. Simplified engine. If you go with the radiator idea it might be necessary to simplify the engine in order to not overdo details at the ship rear. This is completely circumstantial and may or may not hold depending on the applied texturing. Additionally if the internal engine does not stand out of the outer one the shape line while looking from top will be more sleek.
   
3. Simplified arm-wings. At this point I honestly don't know which wing arms I do like more - blunt ones, current ones or the proposed sharp ones. Current ones give a distinctive style to the ship and possibly the shipline, while sharp or blunt ones are less radical to the first look.
   

Weapon mounts - I would prefer to see them perpendicular to the long axis of the ship, but that is mostly esthetics. I am also a big believer in having non-turret guns forward on the hull, but that is just me. (right hand side of the image)

Engines - I rather like the more vectored look that comes with the ducting across the thrusters, but, again, personal preference, not because of any specific idea.

Forward wings - I prefer the simplified hook inward (left hand side in the image)

Okay, it is time to get to work again.
Oh and

so like I was forced to post because some derp thinks if I dont post then we dont get the ship ...

Yes, I am that kind of derp who won't be doing anything upon lack of input, you got me absolutely correct.

Hello Havoc MkIII. I hesitate about its tail, but you decide on its fate.
Model updated.

Now this is awsome! And the wing actually makes it pretty good looking. And for the record, not only your Havoc has that kind of wing ( *points towards the CR Pytho* ), also the front and side "wings" look a lot better, it actually has the feeling of a VHF now. I can't wait to see it textured, especially if you're going to use Massdrivers textures which are sweet !

I think these two things should be removed, but otherwise it's very good:

I think it was the official factions request to have that, but the previous shape was ... strange , thisone makes it look way better IMO.
But I guess it's more or less up to LH~ to decide

[Swallow]

No it is up to everyone involved.

Engine is better but still not hidden.
I'll just draw it I guess

Traits from the Liberty snub shipline ("spoiler"), streamlined but still reasonably bulky look. I like.
