    Chris Douglas, an artist who worked on every Wing Commander game from Secret Missions 2 to Prophecy, saw the renderings provided by Captain Johnny and kindly forwarded us even more beautiful ship renderings! Check out the Dragon (missing from the previous set) and two new images of the Piranha, showing previously invisible details (like the purple 'Diamondback' markings on the latter ship). Now, who has that Wing Commander IV Dralthi beauty shot?

    The pure mass of detail is wonderful - the ships from prophecy are the first ever in wc history with little trusters on the surfaces... just so damn cool!

    Always loved the little F-106A... it just feels so right, like a new version of the old good ferret...

    Agreed, the Piranha is a perfect little light fighter, I just wish we got to fly them more often.

    Double agreed, it's too bad we didn't get to fly a few recon missions later in WCP in a Piranha. Having the Wasp probably limited the Piranhas screen time as well since scrambles were taking over by the Wasp.
