I whipped up a few models recently for Kate Russell's Mostly Harmless teaser video, the results can be seen here:-

Nice video SK 
very nice.. er.. cobra enters, but its not it from that point on?
I designed a series of ships for the oolite game. Never been released properly. They were based on a "Kintari" Feline species I made up with ships designed to match a feline personality. Speed, agility, heavy on the offense and quick to get away rather than try to brawl it out if things go awry with cargo space being "an after-thought" after all who ever heard of a cat carrying a load...
The idea went that the Kintari came from a nongalcop world and their ships were rare within the mainstream space lanes.
There was the small scout
Desgined to recall a pouncing domestic cats front end.
This is a rough idea of the concept
This is how it made it into game given oolites vertice limitations of the time
Then there was the heavy fighter
Designed to recall a more substantial big cat pouncing.
And then there was the trader. Quite literally a fighter with a cargo hold mashed on to the back end slowing it down and costing it agility over the fighter.
And last of all the Mk2 Kintari Trader which was the subject of a story which Ive written but never finished...
I also did them in a range of cat pattern paint jobs but have none of those pictures on photobucket...

To me it appears like a cargo freighter.
But then id make it even longer
What kind of ship is this meant to be?
It also looks like a large drop ship
But then the under Hull does not compute with atmosphere.
Why wings?
I like what you're doing
Hope to see more of this

Here is 1st render of cobra model i posted earlier. I`ll post new ones when I get more free time.

David that is stunning, I also really like your space station. We'll have to talk more as I have a burning need to develop more high resolution graphics using space engine and good models like the ones you are obviously producing. I really need a Coriolis for what I'm working on.
Working title "Out of warp and into frying pan"
Krait is pretty much what I could rip off ED`s concept art.

it's a bad idea ? it's a nice idea ?
no comments at all ?
ppl say something pls i feel alone here...
I especially like the anhedral wing configuration and (I have to ask if it was intentional?) see why it might be required in such a ship. This is Good for atmospheric stability, and increases maneuverability. Something which is a necessity in fighter-type ships.
I think your design is very good.
back after an Aeon of time
today i return to work on my model.
I made some little different details in the tummy and i re-create an Anaconda simply model to compare it with the size of my Fer-de-lance model
as you can see the FDL is a very big ship.
next step (prob. next week idk) i will finish the textures and then i have an idea for a simple animation in space..
stay tuned.
