The Tempest Aerospace Fighter, co-designed by Ra and me. I've been tweaking it over the past few weeks, but I can't get the damn side-view down...

Nice, missle drawings are single missle mounts or designations of loads?

Double-stacked missiles, except for the outboard Heavy Bays, which house a single missile each. Maybe I should draw in the missile brackets...

Looks almost Nabooish.

Damn, I like the design. Good work. :D

Only issue I really have with those shots is that with the top down view, it is hard to distinguish the angles because it's all one color. Maybe do some outlining and shading to give it a more 3D feel?

Fixed wing leading edges on side view and added the ventral tailfins. This may be the last WIP I do until I get a new mouse (seriously, I'd like nothing more than to play baseball with this POS; see Vent for why).

Not even a hurricane can stop this guy from making space planes!

Nice! It looks like a cross between them Battlestar Galactica fighterplanes and an Su-34 (well, the nose and the cockpit looks like that of a 34).

New Mouse has arrived, I now suffer no penalty on my Starshipwright skill (+2 from the mouse and -2 from the crappyass monitor offset). I still ain't gonna try Quake till I get new headphones and a bigger monitor...

Maybe I'll have an update later on today...

Personally, I would ditch the top-rear tail fins. Otherwise, very nice. Especially the missile mounts.
