[Challenge 2][Cat A] Osprey G

[Commander Turtle]

The Osprey is a small scout ship, but its versatility and track record made it the obvious choice for getting a weaponised upgrade. Called the Osprey G, the energy cannon strapped to the front provides a punch without causing recoil, ideal for such a lightweight craft.

Vertical doors are efficient and... okay, they're just cool.

In flight, the wings fold out and the landing gear tucks in.

The engine with thrust vectoring.

Here's a better look at the cannon. I like asymmetry.

Dead pleased with this. The door design required a modified tile inversion, which acts as the door stopper on the way up and the way down. So that part worked out better than I could have hoped.

This is one you couldn't have made on LDD! C&C always welcome.

Sweet design man, I'm digging those swing-up doors.

[shmails]

I agree, vertical opening doors are just plain cool! Great work.

[mccoyed]

Very cool ideas here. I like the doors and the overall design, very bird/bug-like!

[LittleJohn]

Those doors are sweet, and I love the overall shaping

[Big Sal]

Great job on the doors, and on everything else too

[Kai NRG]

Very nice build; great job with the door! I can hardly make my cockpits big enough for a figure, let alone a door! The wings are great too!

[robuko]

I like where you're going with this one, very nice and hinge-y. Great playability too. Swooosh!

There's a little bit of Disney Nautilus in this. And that is awesome.

(Oh, I like the doors too! )

[soccerkid6]

Really unique shape, and it looks amazing! Wonderful door design too
