AzMiLion Posted May 6, 2013 (edited) RX-02 Jackal by AzMiLion, on Flickr The Jackal is a R-type fighter craft, powered by twin T-Viper Engines and armed with two dual Plasma flak cannons. The additional Jackal option weapon provides a beam weaponry capability to this fearsome fighter, as well as being capable of being used as a auxilliary hyperdrive. More spaceships with the Turbo philosophy applied to them, this one is for the May R-Type month challenge on the starfighters group on flickr! As usual, feedback is appreciated.

lightningtiger Posted May 6, 2013 Oh, yeah another R-Type craft......nice design, Brick On Fight On 'AzMiLion' ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tchuk-norst Posted May 7, 2013 Very nice shape. Exactly where would you put the additional weapon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AzMiLion Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) Option type weapons are self-propelled to a degree and hover in front of the ship. as for the rear booster attachment there's a 1x1 with a vertical clip hidden in there. Jackal - Hyper R Cutthrough by AzMiLion, on Flickr basically thats how it attaches for now, still working on a bit more of a sturdy connection.

DraikNova Posted May 7, 2013 I like the combo of "system" and HF. The engines look absolutely awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zero1312 Posted May 7, 2013 Very nice!!! Is this craft based of an existing game model or is it a new type? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AzMiLion Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) Inspired by various ships from the R-type series, but of my own design. So mostly new craft. Edited May 7, 2013 by AzMiLion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraikNova Posted May 8, 2013 I love the colors on this one. The "POLICE" print seems a bit out of place though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AzMiLion Posted May 9, 2013 It looked beter in the initial colouring i did for it, and the way the render came out doesn't exactly make it pop as much as i'd like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
