[M4 -26 - Alphabet] Gorgon-Q Support Fighter

[Thedbbuildworks]

Commissioned by the CIS General Lok Durd, Designed in collaboration between the Z-Gomot Ternbuell Guppat Corporation and the Colicoid Creation Nest, the Gorgon-Q support fighter was built to deliver continuous bombardment without the need for cooldown.

The Outer ring structure, a proprietary particle accelerator, inspired by Z-Gomot’s TSMEU-6 wheelbike, rotates during flight to increase power efficiency via a specialised dynamo mechanism.

In combination with the high surface area dedicated to heat dispersal, the Gorgon-6 can maintain an unprecedented heavy cannon fire rate of 750rpm, with field tests reporting a blast rate so rapid the lasers appear to fire as a continuous beam.

This prototype unfortunately is not currently in mass production due to two key failure points;

1. Repeated instances of the primary cannon failing to cease fire, resulting in friendly fire casualties in all field tests, notably the complete destruction of a munificent frigate, holorecording available.

2. The highly specialised systems require an advanced droid brain to pilot such as a BX-series droid, due to the ever increasing demand for these units in covert ground operations, General grievous has personally ordered a pause to the project

 

This may be my only build this year, I have some family stuff going on that are really taking up all my time.

i zoned in on Q almost immediately because I wanted to do a ship that was upright.

originally I planned to have a fixed cockpit in the centre of the Q shape, however just for fun I played around with a rotating mechanism…. And had so much fun that that just got locked in.

the cockpit gave me a lot of trouble, I wanted something bug like, and that made me start with a Sortve carapace over the top, but it just ended up looking like a submarine, which I’m not too happy with

i had wanted to build a droid brain rather than have a separate pilot, but all my designs frankly sucked.

 

always appreciated

Really impressive, a very obviously Separatist fighter!

Say that with a mouthful of marbles... very nice indeed

Much appreciated, the only way I could see a Q working is if it lands in that position.

 

…the trial and error that went into getting it to stand up

Really unique and successful design built here. Great work - The design of the ring is very in keeping with other CIS styles such as a Tri-Fighter and the cockpit and cannon really do look the part.
Good job

Thanks for the kind words on the ring, a side effect is there is literally no good place to hold it, hence the messy photos

A challenging letter to build and a fantastic result!
