Description
This is a new fighter I designed for my Star Wars RPG. It is manufactured by Slayn&Korpil (The guys who designed Bwing with Adm. Ackbar). Since designers are Verpine & they are insectoid in nature I thought their newly designed interceptor should resemble one.I also added swing wings for docking & quick deployment & storing advantages in mind also different wing positions are utilised in atmosphere for better maneuverability. The neck contains a rotating gyro for head guns in the tradition of creating a stable platform for the pilot while assisting in better accuracy (same principle was used in Bwing in much greater extent)
This is a post endor ship used in New republic navy

Probably came in handy during the mop up operations and Blackfeet crisis.

I really love this concept and I'm a big fan of Star Wars, I think this little ship would fit right into the universe and am planing to make it in to a 3D model using Maya. my version won't be exactly the same, in fact one of the biggest changes i'm thinking of doing is having both sets of wings sweep back rather than one forward and one back, I guess more like a damsel fly. Once it is finished will you allow me to upload it to the internet, of course giving you credit for the initial design?

Of course please be my guest. No design is 100%complete in my opinion. If it inspired you that is great go for it. Just credit me as inspiration like you mentioned and be sure to notify me when you finish so I can admire yours. Take care

skfb.ly/JNuD I know this has been a really long time coming but finally got it done. I hope you like what I have done with your design, it ended up being a bit different but I think it's still true to the idea behind your original

I checked it out. It is beautiful indeed. I also liked software a lot. Your design is aΒ fresh interpretation of the original more like sci-fi rather than SW-ish. Well done my friend.

Thanks a lot. I am glad that it provoked a strong emotion in you.

I love this design!
I found this looking for some more inspiration as to when I design my own ship.
I already had the idea for it being like a giant manta ray.
But my ship isn't for Star Wars[Although it could be modified to fit star wars. lol] but for my upcoming Green Lantern OC.
*Fun Fact: Did you know, to native americans, the Dragonfly represents great change is coming.

Thanks for the Fun fact and kind comments. I love Green Lantern especially outer space adventures. (That's why GL Corps was my favourite book back in 2008)
Glad I could be of any asistance in inspiration department.That is the hard thing to do for an artist

thanks, glad to be of assistance. can even give RPG stats for it if you are playing WEG version & a friend even modeled it for me at this even though it is not exactly loyal to the base design it is also pretty good [link] & [link]

SPECIAL ABILITIES
"Hive mind" Squadrons have no leader. Their targets, disposition of enemy & friends in need are fed through a special tactical net from a nearby
base or CapShip instantly appearing on the H.U.D.of each pilots special helmet giving the pilot the freedom of concentrating on flying & shooting
(In game Terms Squadron always takes the bonus for combined actions as high as the ships involved in the act.)
The blasters on the neck rotates in gattling mode giving a better accuracy while the middle section also rotates in flight manevuers giving the pilot a steady platform to shoot from (A variation of B-wing

you are wellcome. For the record when you use these ships be sure to use them in numbers to use tacticle advantage of the sp ability "hive mind" Also A major weakness for these babies are their dependency on a base ship. Without it their coordination is way off & their sensors are far shorter in range than any fighter on their own.

Among your ship designs I think I like this one most. Simple, efficient, well thought and executed. I (obviously) don't know the starwars universe and concept as well as you do, but I am sure that this small gem would fit right in. Congrats!

Thanks, kenofchaos was even kind enough to model it for me since I lacked the necessary skills, check it out on this [link] & [link]

Interesting concept. Kind of like the X-Wing on a different axis.

Thanks, You're the first one to spot it. I even thought about naming it "the new x-wing" but I wouldn't hear the end of it & many fans would probably demand my head on a stick

That seems to be how starship design in the Star Wars continuum works, so I thought it was quite an appropriate concept you had there.

cool design, keep the ships coming I like them alot.

Cool design; I always liked both the Verpine and the Mon Calamari back in me own days of Star Wars RPGing.

Thanks, next step is deigning a hyperspace ring that can deploy them to battlefield in close wing state & release them upon exiting hyperspace.
I really like the B-wing but always thought it too bulky to be an effective fighter so this design is my solution to my own dilemma

I really like this. Would you mind if I tried to make a SketchUp model of this?

Not at all. pls be my guest and keep me posted of your progress. I am really honored that you like it that much to give your time & effort. Really appreciated.
Note: pls be kind enough to credit me for design when/if you decide to post it

Thanks, and most definitely I'll credit you. I'll keep you posted on how it's going. I won't be able to start right away, though. Too many irons in the fire, as they say.
