Description
Flight... The one realm not yet explored extensively by designs. Yeah, they all fly, but none of them feature that as their specific purpose. The Nothing Project could hover, but it was never mean to fly around all the time...So as I'm sitting on the couch, relaxing from a night of wandering the town with friends, watching the 08th MS Team, it hits me. I'm not entirely sure what inspired me, but I got to work immediately. I've been working on and off on a starcraft mod to parallel my book and I was stuck with creator's block at the wraith and valkyrie. "what the hell do I come up with for a flying unit?" And so, this is my answer!

Woah... That looks like DoGa, I recognise some parts in it... but other's I don't recognise... wierd. Very nice model though. I like the level of detail you put into it.

Oh, one thing, I think the boosters/wings could be a little bigger. Just looks like it'd have a hard time flying. Maybe it's just me. But it'd look better at least, IMO.

That's mostly perspective. The thrusters on the shoulders are actually very large. I was surprised I fit them on without looking obnoxious. I think I might render a few detail shots of the thrusters and wings and post them in my scrapbook.

the thrusters seemed fine to me, but I think the wings seems too small... the breadth is fine but they could be wider to help him stay airborne

ah, well I made the shoulder thrusters so large in addition to the back thrusters because I didn't want these giant wings that made it seem off-balance.

Whoa. Sweetness. Very solid design, and I really like the overall shape of it. Not much detail, but it's streamlined, which makes sense. Very nice.
