Hei!
I've seen here and there that quite a lot of people liked the Mining Guild TIEs from Rebels, and modified/painted some. I've done it as well, so we can showcase them here!
One of mine has some extra winglets that I'm sure I've seen somewhere, but I can't quite figure out where...it's supposed to be an elite version of kind.
Here's mine!
The Mining Guild did manage to improve one of the major design flaws of the TIE: Visibility. How this effected performance I don't know, but it is a nice improvement.

From the Wiki: " They also had a notch cut in their stabilizers, giving them only eight solar collectors instead of twelve, which gave them improved visibility, but greatly diminished their combat capabilities and maneuverability. [2] "
I think if FFG did release the mining guild tie, it would be like a toned down Quad Jumper, with a tractor beam and reverse. But very cheep. After all they would be used for moving round rocks and other materials, think of it as a TIE forklift truck.
I'm not sure what a 'toned down' quad would look like, the quad is already pretty toned down...

I don't recall seeing them moving stuff around, tho. In the rebels episode, at least, they looked like patrol craft protecting the guild's operations. So, less mine laborer, more security guard.

That freehand is amazing!

I found a picture of a mining guild TIE and though that I would be able to do it easily. Wasn't the best, but, still looks better than a normal TIE. (I know I didn't cut the wings right.) I don't mind criticism!
