Aha, a modern version of the good old quickshot! my Amiga days are bubbling back to the surface!

Was that built at Pinewood? I was watching the special features on Alien, and the reason that looks so realistic is the interior of the Nostromo is built out of decommissioned Vulcan bomber parts; with Shepperton Studios (Starwars stormtrooper etc.) building and finishing some of the sets .

I was always taken by the I-War box art. I have also included a couple I liked from the Amiga days (Desert Strike and Alien Breed) and the Rome:Total War box, Something about them just jumped off the shelf back in the day

i've never played that one either, is there a screenshot you could post or anything? I'd be interested to see.

Digging the pictures' If I had any criticisms, it would be the lance cockpit. The green doesn't sit right with me; I always thought from the intro it would have a reddish tint; although the model shows it as black glass. I am picking at nits however.

Speaking of Wing Commander Academy, In the very next episode (Word of Honor) Grunt catches some sleep between nav points "I'm going to grab 40. Wake me if the fur starts to fly, eh?" Maybe its a bit more one on one off if its a long patrol?

Interesting....lends more weight to Blair and Paladins scene Blair: first the Tigers Claw, now this. Paladin: Enough! You were not to blame, for either Blair: Some would disagree! I'd imagine the Concordia got ambushed, perhaps in a similar fashion to the Claw, given Blairs comment?

I think after the Kilrathi war ended there'd be lot of surplus ships around, to be stolen or to be bought and then rearmed illegally perhaps. The pirates in WCIV were operating out of a Frigate.

That's awesome digging the details like the bridge windows and what I presume is the cap ship missle tubes in yellow. Had a look at the excalibur, some.nice "vampire" predecessor touches

Ah, one of my grandads favourite films, we used to watch it like once a month when he was alive. I used to think those triple mount cannons were made up, but no, they are MG151/20 Drillings, an improvised anti air gun using aircraft mg151/20s

Interesting catch, is that from Prophecy?

Wow, thats impressive!! It'd be cracking to get some kind of release, not sure how the Copyright would work r if its possible, but agreed, I'd back it.

I kind of like it; it looks like a modular building as a starship that could simply land on a battlefield and work as an autonomous building; then when the campaign is over, simply lift off and fly to the next planet where it is needed. I sort of imagined those three big square sections under...

This project is coming together very nicely! Glass reflections are a nice touch, they don;t look overbearing and give the impression of the glass curving in the bubble cockpit, its probably about right.

Good to see a friendly ship! I'd never dissuade anyone from creativity! Digging Paladin and Iceman; something feels a little "off" with Angel; I think the face needs thinning out a little.
