Making the Games: Manta Artwork (November 4, 2008)

[Bandit LOAF]

The first fighter the collection is the Nephilim Manta, arguably Wing Commander Prophecy's emblematic alien ship (similar to the Dralthi in the Kilrathi games). Here we see Syd Mead's original Manta sketch, two high resolution renderings and a set of rendered Claw Marks style 'line art' for the craft.

Thanks to Captain Johnny for both archiving and providing this material!

The line drawings are gorgeous. I can't wait to see the rest of the ships.

this will definately help out in formulating things for the WCCD mod ships
