Description Concept sketch that I'm working on. There's a reason for the "bulky" docking pods on the sides. Feedback always welcome. Still coming up with a name for the light freighter model class.

*UPDATE 1*

Added the freighter "forks" in the front along with more detail to make it look like it was inspired by the Barloz-class medium freighter, the VCX-100 light freighter, the YT-1000 light freighter, the YT-1300 light freighter, the YT-1760 small transport, the YT-1930 light freighter, the YT-2000 light freighter, & the YT-2400 light freighter (maybe taking on inspiration from the YV-545 & YV-560 light freighters too?).

*UPDATE 2*

Added the freighter's cockpit & the cockpit "cone" window, though still have yet to add the window detail.

*UPDATE 3*

Added the window detail, the turret, & the escape pod/docking hatches' detail from the Barloz freighter, along with more detail on one of the engines.

*UPDATE 4*

FINALLY!!! It is complete! "Might" add more detail if needed but thanks to feedback from :iconjerichoraccoon951:, managed to get the finalized detail here! As before, feedback is appreciated! I hope you guys like this! Now to come up with a class name for this freighter. VCX-275? YV-525? The actual YT-2600? Other?

*UPDATE 5*

Decided to try & replace the sketch with a new clean picture in Paint that is a complete reference (with a few things changed like the engine vents). I still need to work on a few things & finalize the window pattern (along with adding the landing gear) while I need to get a side view done & even make a interior layout. The gold lines at the turret are "guidelines" to help me see what goes where.

*UPDATE 6*

Turrets are now complete & updated the engine vents. Now I just need to add some more detail, mainly the landing pads on the bottom & then add a side view.

*UPDATE 7*

Now colored (colors not final) & window pattern chosen (although again, not final). Just need to add landing pads on bottom & maybe I might add detail & then the side view.

Star Wars belongs to George Lucas, Lucasfilm, & Disney.

Hmm, somehow reminds me of the Oota Goota, a heavily modified YT-1300... Link: i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm…

... or of a YT-2000 with "wings"... ^^

Actually that's not what I intended. This design is actually a "stock" version. I'm still working on the other views so we'll see what it truly looks like in case someone wants to make a 3D model.

I was just saying... Be sure, you had a look at all possible variants of the YT-1300 and of the various other YTs, so you don't accidently re-design an already existing ship...

Alrighty. Well I'll try & redraw this again so it won't be an existing YT ship. Although it's more of an inspiration or homage to the YT series anyway, along with the Barloz, along with a few YV-series freighters.

This is completely custom & fan-made. I haven't thought of a class name yet.

I made it up myself with inspiration from various ships in the description.
