My pride and joy. This is my favorite of all my creations (the first two versions were at their time). I keep upgraded hoping to get it the best I can, so here is the current version. Please tell me how I can improve.

About this creation

Please ignore the stand.. But anyway here is a slightly out of focus picture displaying the ship. The primary differences this time were the addition of greebles, full wings, and more area around the cockpit.

My attempt at greebles on the back instead of a simple slope, and more back there other than dropping off. The wings have a little more mass to them instead of stopping as well.

Aerial shot, all six guns are still there except the front two are now black as well in order to blend in better.

Now the wings can offer a little more protect of the cockpit from a side shot. I think they look better also.

Felt I had to put this picture in, all three engines are still there, but i don't really like the bottom part of the back.

Detailed shot of the greebles. I think they turned out pretty well, but I don't know much about it..

Farther away.

I really dont like that back part and want to try to change the bottom's colors a little to match the rest.

Back into the landing mode but because I figure you have a pretty good idea of the whole ship from above I won't but too many. The only reason I put any is because I'm proud of the little landing gear and wing position change.

Very flat and blurry isn't it?

No base, but also I forgot to lower the frontal landing gear and can't retake the pictures right now so I'm sorry about that.

Still pretty flat and still no landing gear down..

That back is really starting to bug me.

So here is my current favorite ship. Please tell me what you think and how to improve, I want this to get even better (which is not very hard to do.)

This is a very nice ship, i like almost everything about it. As far as advice, I would clean up the greeble area a little bit, those lever thingies can be good but having them shoot off into different directions can be sloppy; also, the engines are kind of plain, there is alot you could do with them so i'll leave that up to you. otherwise, great job!

I really like the basic form of this ship. Original, yet classic.

This is a cool ship. A good shot of the belly would be nice but I'll take what I can get. The engine area looks slightly too small for some reason. Overall it should be your pride and joy.

My advice would be to make the center engine larger to cover up most of the back that you don't like. Or if you want to leave the engines alone throw some angles in the back so it's not just flat.

I think this was nicely done. The shape of your fighter is very intriguing. Keep at it this is very nice.

Quoting Rak shasha Use dark grey for greebles, the black is a little strong. but other than that it is very good

Thanks for the recommendation. I will definately work on changing that.

Quoting Benhamin Eukatah You build really good starfighters, and this one is no exception. I really like the wings, and the engines are good, but you should possibly change them to a standard LEGO engine piece... I build starfighters as well, so come and see some!

Thanks for the comment! When I first built it this was the only engine I used and I haven't gone back and changed it but I will definately try to, thanks for the idea. And I will also definately check out your starfighters.
