new raven's talon model?

[Ayatolah]

The Talon's current design is very popular among the members of the community. I doubt many would like to see a completely new model. Maybe something along the lines of the current one (like the one Jinx made).

IMO what fails in that ship is the extremely thin body and cockpit compared to the engines... i would fly it if it had "more mass"

It's not really fitting into Freelancer and it is a 100% import...of course with much better quality than the old Renzu and mining ships, but still...I'd like a new model!

The Talon is a personal favorite of mine. The design would be hard to beat IMHO. If someone made a model that looks sleek, sexy, and aerodynamic I'd be down to fly one...but I just hope no one messes it up, or else I'd be an epic sad panda.

When speaking about new textures: Wasn't it planned to make a new Wasupu (Stinger)?

Yeah there was a model/texture for a new Wasupu, but alot of people QQ'd about it apparently and so it didn't get in. The link below is a picture of the Wasupu model that was made. I don't know who made it (I forget, was a long time ago) but I remember the thread and found the picture in a random forum search.

I think that texture looks awesome.

It's unfinished by the looks of it, but it's infinitely better than the current one.

The current Raven's Talon is neither sleek nor aerodynamic, and as for whether it's sexy...well, it has a lot of junk in the trunk. If you're into that kind of thing, maybe?

I think it was made by Tycho. Maybe send him a PM and ask him to finish and resubmit the new texture?

Model lead here. The Talon's current model is quite fine as is. There is no need to replace it and there are no plans to replace them. There's plenty of other models that could do with a touchup other then this one.
