Display MoreThe recent Hellcat sketch commission seemed to have kicked off a wonderful snowball effect. Countvonschnaps now has three more Wing Commander designs on deck. His Arrow is wonderfully detailed and I really like that red canopy glass. The Rapier is also really rugged and seems to have some anime influence in there somewhere. The Excalibur has the most liberties taken, but it looks a bit more like a spaceship now and less like a 20th Century fighter. Very cool designs all around!
Arrow mk V: A light fighter seen in Wing Commander III and IV.What can I say that I am having a blast with these designs and I can only say thanks to the people who voted and commissioned me. I was not planning to do Wing Commander designs but it seems it came my way anyway.
Showcasing the Rapier II medium fighter in the colors frequently seen in Wing Commander 1 and 2 (Green).This one was also commissioned by Shoguneagle. What can I say then that I am relieved to see people enjoy the Wing Commander universe and its designs. Wing Commander was my first introduction into space simulators and still holds a special place in my memories.
The last in a series of 3 "redesigns" for Shoguneagle casing the F103 Excalibur. The fighter the stopped the Earth-Kilrathi War in 2669 and was ahead of its time with advanced weapon, shield (fast regenerate) and propulsion systems. This version is an after war unit so it was slimmed down to cope with the budget after the fleet was cut down as the war ended.Thanks to Rattler for the tip off!
