Wow! I love the smooth lines, wish I had some room to install it. Ahh, wait, Flavid hasn't completed his Thrawn Trilogy, so I do have room.<P>**Prepares to overwrite the Shieldship OPT**

OK, I've done a slight change to the model. The extra engines are now mounted below the ship.<P>I think it looks better this way, also on the other version the turret would've come very close to the engines when rotating - would look a litle weird.<P>pic:<BR> <P>I'm gonna test-OPT it now, to see if everything works.

Killer.<P>Opt it and I'll find a couple of places to put it in the TF conversion.
Am I supposed to put something witty here?

You do realize that aerodynamics are pretty pointless in a vacuum, right?<P>Anyway, interesting design. A trifle overpowered IMO but looks quite nice. You might consider making the actual turret a little larger (not the barrels). Right now it seems way undersized to house that many guns that big.<P>Incidentally, I think the big engines topside seemed to fit better. Makes the engine configuration more balanced due to the downturned wings.<p>[ 10 February 2003: Message edited by: The Saxman ]

That's okay, the <I>Shadowkeeper</I> can handle it. <P>And Saxman, if aerodynamics are useless in space, what're all of those designs on your site?

I have models of aerodynamic designs on my site?<P><I>Saxman looks to jog his memory.</I><P>Two X-wing variants...T-47 Airspeeder...the R-Wing/R...<I>Senator</I>...<I>Republic</I>-class Star Destroyer. Two starships, two fighters (primarily) not designed by me, a canon Star Wars vehicle, and the R-wing which the big wing pods and strut assemblies aren't exactly aerodynaimc.

I could choose from a list offered by the hosting service. Most of the features are plug-ins from that service. I'm about to start working on a 'real' site, can't tell much yet though.

OK, I'll talk to you about the textures later.<P>As for the engine glow ... well, there's nothing special about those - just two colors, scaled correctly, finito - nothing special.

The Toscan Fighter is great! <P>But I'm sorry I have to comment on the wallpaper; the sun glare is good, the the starfield is too dense and the fighter render looks a bit cheap this way. I'd suggest you render it in 3DS MAX! If you don't have it, send the fighter (OPT) to me please. Here, looks at this X-Wing rendered in MAX (very quickly, internet connection is on <P>
