The Art of Wing Commander Arena - Part Eighteen (November 1, 2007)

[Bandit LOAF]

Here are sketches of all six in-game fighters... plus the two heavy fighters. The other one? The Gothri, first introduced in Special Operations 1. Like the Centurion, a fully textured Gothri model was built... and it's beautiful - a cross between the classic fighter and something from H.R. Giger.

Those all look amazing. It is too bad about the heavy fighters though they look both sleek and mean in updated forms.

Was something cut off too? What's the thing on the right hand side between the Drathli and Gothri?

 

[Howard Day]

It looks like a gun design.

Hmm, the Gothri has a beautiful frame. It would also have been refreshing to see a Kilrathi ship that's not from WC 3+...and that is symmetrical.

 

[Toast]

That Gothri's really menacing. I think it's a way scarier-looking ship than all the asymmetrical pointy designs.
