Pimp My Cobra

[Kevris]

I would really, really, really appreciate a version of that new Medusa paint job that was simply white for the ship and gold for the medusa head.

Versace cobra!

I want it!!!

Laying in my hospital bed looking for something to put a smile on my face, I happened to find your thread. Smiling now ��

Thankyou

You're welcome

I realized that just because you have a bunch of add ons for your ship doesn't mean you HAVE to use them. Same goes for decals. I think the Back Bacon Express looks much better with the leaf uncluttered and without the added wingtips.

You sir have done something I thought could not be done. You made a Cobra not look like crap.

Meeeh, there is nothing for the Gutamayas

I'm hoping for something for the Clippers and the T6/Keelback someday for sure. Those are my other ships of choice.

Indeed that does look nice. Oddly balanced in an asymmetric sort of way.

I decided to write a short story based on how my character got this ship

The Back Bacon Express

For those who have read Elite: Lost Souls, this short story takes place immediately after those events.

What, no more pimped out Cobras to show off?

It's Elite Hipster Retro. You've probably never heard of it.

I really hope they reintroduce it

Paint degrading and maybe have the damaged ships stay damaged until fixed at a station:

Here's my explorer Cobra, flying the flag of good queen Beth.

The flags crosses the centuries

Very nice!

I took a long, hard look at the British flag but thought better of it. A nice, stealthy matte black for me..
