It's a long way from completion.

...and another one.

This should be the last one.

....I'm most certainly in over my head with this one. I'm no artist. Did you even see my Federation Heavy Assault ships? That Frankenstein is also pretty bad. Those were splices, though, so this should be a new kind of bad.

Type A rooms, as previously seen: http://i.imgur.com/Giyc801.png

I started work on the Type A Star Fighter hull. The nose seems to be modified from the Kestrel. Some edges won't be straight, but hopefully that won't mess up the star shape too much. Still not quite sure how this ship will look... :|
Image
Obviously lacking shading right now. It's lacking a lot of things. I don't even know what color it will be. :P I only colored it so I didn't have a bunch of transparent space.

The Type B, which used the same star frame as the Type A, will have a completely different hull, since piloting is in a different location.

edit: Added some more to the ship, using stealth parts. Needs lots of editing. I'm not sure how to fix it.

I think it might be a step in the right direction. :| I feel like I'm having a difficult time comprehending depth. :?

Hmmm it is a step in the right direction but I think those engine nacelles need to be the same colour as the rest of the ship. You could try using the ones from my Nighthawk Stealth Fighter. But I haven't made gibs for it so it might not help at all.

You could try modifying a Stealth wing gib for the star points too.

I find it odd that the welkin and whirlwind will be in your mod, not many people give those planes love =l

That's probably one of the best ship designs I have seen here. I love the parts that glow.
Some of my FTL mods you may like, or hate, or... yeah:
