- Start date
Electronic Dreams
I know what you mean! Unfortunately we have all been born several centuries (possibly millenniums?) too early. Now I know what the ancient peoples must have felt like when they saw birds in flight and dreamed about soaring through the sky, but at least we can still dream too.
Lovely work Steve Tyler, well done!
Mmm, I want one!

Yep Steve Tyler should be on the FD payroll
Steve, Why don't you collect all your Frontier Models/Screenshots
and present them to Mr Braben himself. You just never know....
They get the seal of approval from my wife, She has already complained
about the new Polizia stuck to the fridge!

Seems the consensus is that i should apply for a job here... settle down at a games studio? me? here? Yeah, it would be awesome wouldn't it... Just the possibility of being involved in Elite IV....

In all seriousness I think you should. I've been following your work on Scifi-Meshes for a few years now and think that you would be quite the asset to a team like Frontier.
Job application here mate: http://www.frontier.co.uk/jobs/vacancies/?artid=105&pageNum=0&blk=6
It's got you all over it!
Awesome,theres been some really good reimagined ship and this one hits all the right spots.look forward to see what you do next.
haha.. why 'polizia' in italian ? looks awesome !
That is a question - is it because of the colour scheme that you went with?
Beautiful work, but where is the main gun on these ships? In the game, the vipers have only one gun mounting point , but it seems to be invisible.

Great work!
BTW: Are there any projects to make registrations visible on the new models? I'd prefer text to be taken from game and added as decals or smth.
Also, I have minor gripe with the cockpit - Viper is a single seat craft so this kind of canopy would be impractical as it would obscure the vision too much.
Not unless they either had (horribly inefficient) combustion drive separate from the fusion one, or were able to use atmospheric air as reaction mass somehow, which would be too much of a hassle given how little time do they spend in the atmosphere.
On the new model it's perfectly visible, though.
