Crinis-U4 "Comet"

Post by muffinmanifestation » Mon Jun 08, 2009 8:56 pm

Well, here's a new MOC from me, the Crinis-U4 "Comet"

Image
Here's my entrie for the Bantam Attack!!! contest in the Starfighters Group. It was an epicly fun build and, yes, it is swooshy. It was built for the Dansche faction after the need for cheap, fast escorts to the cargo ships transfering troops and supplies to the different bases on other planets. This pilot is a bit on the "unstable" side, so we'll let him be

Image
Yeah, another shot. The engines were supposed to be minimal, so I figured a bunch of micro-thrusters make for a light fighter.

Image
Here's a cockpit shot. It's pretty cramped, but it's a small fighter. . . what do you expect?

Anywho. Comments and suggestions please.

the green micro-thrusters somehow work very well with the orange and black color scheme

The best part about this little ship is definitely the positioning of said micro-thrusters inside the quarter-arch pieces, though. Badass.

Also, what torso is the pilot wearing? It's pretty awesome

It looks too cool for exo-force, but if you are correct you have found the torso for the newest squad in my army. Edit:I owe you one for that little bit of insight, now to buy some.

That torso is seriously one of the best to come from TLG.

Yes, very nice fighter indeed. I also like the pilots expression. Cocky, arrogant with just the right degree of manic "everything is just another target" grin.
