GC bomber - Jinx - 08-30-2008
i gotto admit, i m not really fond of the idea of another small bomber .... this model was made upon request by Kusaine and should represent a kusari style GC bomber, which should somewhat be similar to the dragon design.
![[Image: GCbombercollection.png]](http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc79/JinxTT/GCbombercollection.png)
the size of that bomber is larger than the catamaran of course, cause the cat is rediculously small. - but it should still be a rather small bomber ( just not from all sides - a bit more like the BHG bomber, which has a nicely small profile, but a large side view )
the idea behind that concept was to make something richly ornamented with some fearsome blades/spikes. it is meant to look as modular / fragile as the dragon, which is only really joined at the reactor chamber. - most of its mass are the solar panels and the large backfin. - the engine is protected in the middle of the ship, the torpedo tubes are rather small and mounted horizontally beneath the ship. between the joint of the wings and the cockpit module.
the ripped thing at the engine is supposed to be something like a shield / heatsink ( whatever - i had to put "something" there to balance the appearence of the ship )
since i got like NO idea about what the golden crysamthingy is about ( other than its all women ) - feedback is appreciated.
edit:
suggested size : rheinland bomber or something similar to that
suggested weaponry : 4 lvl 10 guns, 2 torpedo slots, 1 mine, 1 CD, 1 CM
suggested hitpoints : should be rather light - maybe 16-17k max
suggested speed : identical to the new civi bomber or something like the taidan bomber
suggested powerplant : the small one 48k of course

It looks more like some sort of intercepter to me, but as all ways simply amazing. Any rendered images?
GC bomber - Jinx - 08-30-2008
no - i haven t hardpointed / textured it - not before i got some feedback about whats to change... - so that is only the raw model. about the size ... yes, it is interceptor like - but thats the problem when its gotto be a rather small bomber. - its supposed to look like - and IF we were able to animate ships, it would prolly fold its "wings" and become really tiny when flying cruise.

Maybe give the nose and canopy a bit more length, its looking a bit snub-nosed.

They're an all female group trying to overthrow the kusari government in order to institute a matriarchy. Basically, women are treated pretty poorly in kusari compared to men, and they're fighting for "women's rights" - the problem is that they've all become addicted to cardamine.

actually, compared with the hole ship, the cockpit nose looks like it was flown against some rocks/walls.... Make it perhaps a bit longer?

Cardi Cardi Cardi!, yes well thats right but also remember that the GC women are very beautiful,
anyway back to the ship, looks awsum and cockpit nose a bit longer like CCI45-px/Probe149 said,
as long as its agile, and smallish with a power array similar to the BD Bomber, ill be happy:P
GC bomber - Jinx - 08-30-2008
i have elongated the main hull ( nose, cockpit ) and made the whole ship look bigger. - and no, i would not make a bomber as silly as the catamaran, its too small and too unbalanced ( told that to kuraine ) - so this bomber is about civi bomber size and has no additional forward turret.
thats the deal... no bomber the size of a patriot from my side, sorry:P
edit: i m currently making an openSP test flight - gonne post ingame images of it.

Is the bolded part a typo? It seems like a lot of firepower for a small bomber.
