LH17-R "Bayonet" Trade Lane Interceptor

[Turkish]

Loosely based off of the Patriot from Starlancer and portions from the classic Mig-21
I cam eup with this HF design, I feel for the most part its complete, therefore I feel
fortable showing to the public now and recieving critique. Any advice or suggestions
are very welcome, so please keep them coming.


Frontal perspective.



Rear perspective.

I will be updating with two other variations that I have, though this is my final choice.

Gorgeous, but not very Liberty.

Hmm... I don't know who it would fit actually. Lane Hackers, maybe? Or as an Order light fighter?

Maybe a texture will make it more Liberty?

Let me to be the first to post.
cause, the purist in me is dying.
a painful, tearfilled death.

that looks nothing like liberty.
and....I don't think it looks like freelancer.

I would say that it would fit Freelancer... and it is an amazing model.

But I can't see any particular faction that it would match.

I shoudl say Liberty wasn't actually my first choice, I was thinking perhaps Zoners or Lane Hackers, but someone who shall remain unnamed wanted a Liberty HF.

@ blunt: a bit more helpful critics please.

@ Turkish: 1. Change the cockpit into a liberty one. 2. Move the whole side pontons, including the engine part, closer to the center of the hull and make them shorter. Rear view looks nice.

Thats for now.

Well my criticisms are this: The model looks perfect to me. No changes are needed from where I'm sitting. However, some serious thought about what faction it should be for is needed. I don't know where it would fit. Possibly Order or Lane Hackers.

I am of the opinion though, that deciding the faction will be hard without a skin, since colour plays a large part in the ship's 'feel'.

Fine looking ship, but I'm also not sure which faction it would fit. Pontoon things might be a little too long is my only criticism.

to subjugate the enemy's army without doing battle is the highest of excellence."

If all else fails, go civilian!

I could see it being attributed to any one of those trader factions which sell generally to the public. Like the Eagle or Raven's Talon or sommat.

Nice work, brother. :D

Out of hibernation. Gauging the winds.

Actually if it wasn't for the Asgard series of fighters I would call it a Hessian ship..................
