Finally I'm at phase 4 and the battle for the prizes begins I hope everyone brings their best. Anyway this is a Cloakshape Fighter (<<<link to reference) or CS Fighter, It was made decades before the clone wars but was used multiple times in both the Clone wars and the rebellion. It was a difficult build that went through several versions before "perfection" :P . Don't forget to check the Gallery.

A much sleeker looking version than the first. & thanks for the link I now understand the rear fin stabilizer. I think it looks pretty spot-on and I hope you do well in the contest! P.S. thanks for the post as well I am now officially a citizen!!

Diggin' it - it looks pretty spot-on compared to the source material. At first I found it reminiscent of the Cylon Raider from original Battlestar Galactica (not the new pointy ones, the more disc-shaped ones from the oldschool show) but that's not your problem, it's the problem of the original designer ;)

I am not a fan of the flatness it has, I guess its just not my style.

It is nicely done though.

Now that's much better too 'Palms' - sometimes tiling the whole craft gives it a real sleak look to it ! :thumbup:

Now 'vynsane' commented it looked like an old school Raider, yeah in a way it does minus the different cockpit, no tail and this has one engine - but I do see the general wing angles being that of a Cylon Raider.
Great work 'Palms' and keep on bricking ! :sweet:

Now this is much much better than your 'prototype'. Actually, it looks perfect already IMO, I don't think you could do any better with this one. Great job Palms!
