I like that quite a lot but I agree with the others on the length of the ship. Is there no way you could shave off just a few millimeters from the neck without changing the overall design very much? I like the look, I just feel that it seems unnaturally long with the size of its wings.
Or possibly make the neck thinner/curved to compensate for its length.
No. It has tiny "wings" to navigate in fields. They serve no purpose but as a weapon mounts. This was the initial request - to keep it as sleek as possible.
Instead I could slightly enlarge to cockpit glass.
The neck is a frame already. It is not a bulk.
I suggest to enlarge the cockpit slightly, basically making glass area bigger without changing the shape.
Okay and what about making the ship thinner then? As in cutting a millimeter out from the center of the ship and pasting the two halves together or squeezing the center just a bit tighter together. If the ship has to have a neck of that length, making it a bit thinner would make it look much more sleek.
Like I said though, this design looks great. If there truly is no way you could make that center part even a slight bit thinner. Then try the cockpit idea. Maybe it's just because I don't know the size of this VHF in comparison a Raven's Talon that I feel that it needs that adjustment.
