We can discuss some new use for the old model, but KNF still needs a bomber.

Fair enough, I dont have anything against the propsed model.
One thing I do note though. The circular engine block behind the rear wings, that reminds a lot of Rhineland design...

Not that it doesn't look cool. It's a very nicely made bomber, but it just doesn'#t look like the kind of 'form and function' ethic that the dragon HF, chimeara, and BD HF seem to have.
I think the main problem I have with it would be the cockpit.
Pretty much that, doesn't fit in particularly well with the rest of the Kusari line in my opinion..
I'd vastly prefer not having the old model as a bomber, so the BDs can have the big bulky bomber that I'd prefer to fly for pirating and such, but it'd be good if a fitting replacement was used... saying it looks nice is all well and good but it doesn't fit, which is the main problem.
Add some large wing thingies? I don't know just make it look more Kusari, I'm not a ship modeller what do you expect..
The GC bomber looks nice though I doubt I'll be flying one... mainly because I don't want to.
Can we get some comparison shot things? New Kusari Bomber, Chimaera/BD, the Wyrm, and the GC ships?

GC VHF is 99% same size as Chimaera/BD which is 99% same size as Black Dragon.
For other ships see this.
( all the ships on the picture are already shown on other pictures by jinx, so this is no spoiler afaik)

The GC bomber is quite lovely Jinx, minus some small texture mapping issues on the wings. However the new catamaran model I think is terrible, its loud, crowded, the textures do not flow and it seems to be a unique craft in a line of conformity.
Its honestly not right, though the work on the actual model is good. As already stated as well a catamaran is two paralleled hulls, thats simply not what this. It lacks the st lye and finesse normally seen in Kusari designs, its simply too rigid and functional.
Joe hit the matter pretty well when he called the design brutal, because it is honestly a brutal design. The beauty in the model isn't the beauty you would expect from a Kusari design. It doesn't strike the proper feeling of the people, and I don't see Kusari engineers creating something of that nature when all past efforts have been distinctly different.
It doesn't look right, and it doesn't feel right. I may be a bit strange for saying this, but Kusari ships are very much about feel.
The work is good, but I don't think its right.

how are two pontoons with a tiny engine attached elegant and "flowing" with the line?
revised models - Kambei - 02-23-2009
I like new cat... finaly kusari engineers discovered how much useless are fins taking 1/4 of ship:)(but textures, especialy those at the bottom need more work)
revised models - Ironfoot - 02-23-2009
Can you do a version for the Hogosha Jinx seeing as everyother bad guy/gal out there has much better hardware?

' Wrote:how are two pontoons with a tiny engine attached elegant and "flowing" with the line?
Because the style in which they were produced and portrayed was in agreement with the remaining Kusari ships. This is not.
Can you distinctly outline for me what you feel sets it aside from the current line?
revised models - mjolnir - 02-23-2009
2 pontoons, no other kusari ship has those.
This new one looks similar to the Kusari GB.
