I really like the look of the plasma beam weapon, even if it is a huge gas hog.

Thanks B. I have finally run out of places to stick weapons on it so I guess I'll have to finish it now

[Sisko]

Just a question does this thing operate in space exclusively or is it designed to operate in an atmosphere as well?

[jeff3385]

Since the Republic of Texas probably lays claim to airspace reaching to infinity and beyond, if would probably have to operate from the ground up.

[sotoolslinger]

That is correct. The craft has conventional landing gear as well as vertical lift engines. The variable nature of the engines allows it to operate from any atmosphere as well as in space. It is basically a point defence interceptor. It can be based on a moon or planet as well as launch from carriers or be used as a parasite fighter on commercial ships.

Well the configuration is set so now it is just more PSR


Looking pretty good


Still have a few rough spots


This joint is looking fairly good

Back to the sanding

Love the model, but please (sweet mother of god) stop with the hairy legs !

[sotoolslinger]

Hey I gots pretty laigs I'm actually healed enough to set at my modeling table again so hopefully no more hairy legs. :wacko:But you better be nice to me or I'll start posing the craft on my back.

Starting to see an interesting trend develop: your camo schemes are inspired by your lounging shorts, aren't they, STS??? 

Aw, I'm just jealous-----this endo-exo fighter is too cool for words.  I look over at my own workbench and would simply rather await your next update instead!

[sotoolslinger]

Simply not acceptable. Get your arse to cutting plastic

[sotoolslinger]

If you aint got nothin better to do ,the Republic needs carriers . Or since you seem to be having great fun with computer graphics , we need some sort of Stellar Republic of Texas markings as well as Texas Star Rangers or something along those lines.

[Taiidantomcat]

Seeing as it can fly or travel anywhere through space or above planets, you can pick any color/scheme you want for camouflage (not that you ever needed that excuse) 

[sotoolslinger]

Yeah  I know  that is my biggest problem  :banghead:I have been looking at all my sci fi spaceship books an I HAVE NO FREAKIN IDEA  how to paint her
Suggestions are welcome
