This is the beta2 from the old design looks a bit bulky, but its a work in progress.

I lost the original. So I made a new one :D
Be as blunt as you like. I don't care, its just a deformed box :P

Comments?

Cheers :cool:

Bump!

Come on...comment. I need to be able to improve it....here are some other modifications I made to it.

help along the way will be good. I would like to get rid of the boxy shape you can still see from the top. I plan to shape the body and make it smoother in general.

I think it looks alot like a plane, one of the swingwing variety. It looks cool, but it still looks like another plane.

I would try deleting everything exept the front of the new one, and making a ship with extruding method... It looks a bit bretonian to me (the front I mean).

Or perhaps experimenting with the shape without the wings...

I think it looks good as it is, but if your worried about the boxy shape, you could angle the front corners to where the intakes are..

the cockpit and the body look good. the tailfin and the wings are strange. i like the concept of four wings that are bend upwards, cause its something unique - but they don t really fit. the tail looks like somehting stuck there that doesn t belong there.

the proportions of the ship are good though. its wide enough - and the length appears OK. what i could think of is to give the body a slight downwards curve so that the engines are in an 20% angle from the horizontal. for the wings and tail, you ll have to work out something else. maybe look at the borderworld series - how they do the wings - or the eagle. maybe the liberty fighters - cause they describe a bend down curve, too.

right now - the ship looks like a " W ". if you tried to make it more like a " / - \ " or a " >-< " it might look more elegant.
about the plane look - if you get rid of the wings at all - and instead try to work on something more vertically, it will loose its plane look. ( as an example: BHG fighters )

when i look at it right now. it looks like a solid civilian family vehicle. nothing too fancy ( like a sportscar ) and not a military ship ( it looks too harmless ) - but it looks like its safe with its rather bulky shape.
what you can try is to get rid of fins and wings at all - and just work on the body. make it rounder ( the cockpit is quite round ) and give it distinctive parts. ( i know its rediculous - bit when i scetch a ship, i think of parts like cockpit, engines, fuel tanks, thrusters, and extra space for equipment - put those together and squeeze it into a ship body ) think of what part might be located where - and maybe try to give it a shape - if its visible on the outside chassis. ( like exhausts in the thrusters, coolant intakes in the engine part, antennaes in the electronics part etc )
