So since working from production dsigns is a joy to me i started on the TIE Striker. Still a work in progress and of course im taking liberties since we only have the sketch. But even if completely wrong it might make a good TIE variant

lovely stuff - what did you use to create it?

wings3d.. The render is a nice clean one but it wasnt done with wings. i discovered that the 3d program which is bundled with win10 has a nice render system. even though it is useless as a modelling program

Nice airplane reference.

Great work Gosric! It looks like it'd make a fantastic atmospheric speeder - kind of like an Imperial equivalent to the Snowspeeder.

Thanks. still work to do on. This is the first SW ship ive done for a while been doing Trek (sacrilege i know *L*) and im getting back into the aesthetic. I'm trying to decide how close to the sketch of the Striker i should stick or if i should make it one of my variations

It doesn't look like there's a ventral turret. Assuming the final film version actually has on, are you gonna update the model?

It doesnt seem likely that it will. Rogue one looks more like the aesthetic will be in line with ANH. But once i see the actual fighter i will make one that is more accurate. Unless FFG rushes one into production which is probable. In which case ill make it into an Imp Speeder. Although i already have one of those. What if funny to me is that this fighter is so close to my original IRD design before i decided to revamp it.

It's only a matter of time before you're on Disney's design team, Gosric - your Rampart Class Cutter is what the Decimator would like to be when it grows up.

(ps, if when that happens, please pitch the GUNBOAT)

I wish *L*i would happily work cheap. And if it happens ill pitch the gunboat.

Or on Disney's hit list They can get a bit protective of their IP

On a more serious note: maybe you should ask FFG if you can work for them, designing game components.

Edit: and if you do, see if you can get us a Rancor for imperial assault!

I'm already on Paramounts hitlist *L* So i'll risk the wrath of Disney. I'd rather work with people than have them send me C&Ds though i do understand they have the right to do so.

If a miracle happened and i ended up working for Disney of FFG id probably just forget the little people *L*. No not really. I am one of the 'little people'. Love of this is what got me designing in the first place and i dont see that attitude changing if i ever hit the big time. So yes, Starwing and Rancor would be mentioned at meetings.

See, I really like your original creations - the Rampart, Asp and Sentinel all look really good, as do the Corvan ships.

One of these days I'll get round to painting the Z95 variants I picked up lol

Thank you. That is always good to hear.
