Taking another Sci-Fi diversion...
Still gotta imagineer some landing gear for it.
May be a two plane pack, guess what the other will be....?
 
Tim, maybe i'm over the top here, but could you concider doing a Star Wars Tie-fighter line (Basic, interceptor, DV's fighter and the bomber) one day as well????

:jump::jump::jump:

I already owe you BIG time for the Cylon Raider there..:ernae:
 
Dagnabbit Tim, now I'm never going to get my computer from my grandson...:costumes:
 
I always loved that model. Looks like a flying wing. I had the plastic model and detailed the heck out of it when I was younger.

Awesome choice Tim.

Looks cool, I used to have the model kit when I was a kid. I think the landing gear were kind of like skis if I am remembering correctly.
 
thats looking very cool - I guess it's my turn to cancel a project ,, or two.

is the other one gonna be one of these? ...View attachment 69333

Here's one thats a completed exterior with harddecks ... never released it - figured it was too fringe

Don't forget the final season of the New BSG starts Jan. 16th
 
Mate, you ARE a LEGEND!!!! Awesome, I would pay money to have a Original Viper and a Cylon Raider :) :)
 
Fantastic, I will look forward to this baby from one of the greatest designers out there, and still FREEWARE!!!

:ernae::ernae::ernae::ernae::ernae::ernae:
 
DW,
Yeah the other is gonna be a Viper.
Keep and release that Battlestar!
Just whipped up some gear for the Raider.
Seems the Vipers have a sort of ski setup with small wheels/rollers. Figure other craft would have something similar, like our aircraft from East or West would have. An F-15 is different from a SU-27, but both have gear with wheels, wings jet engines, etc.
As for the canopy, the origional Raiders had louvers over the glass, but that would impare visibility too much, and I want to see Cylons inside!
Gonna comprimise and give plain glass, tinted quite dark.
Also got rid of the obvious model part details, like the tank wheels. Just could never live with that...
 
Piglet, dude, you are my hero. Classic Viper and Raider? Awesome!

N332DW, sure would be awesome to have that Battlestar to land them on. :) DEFINITELY not too fringe!
 
Excellent work Piglet.. how about a Milenium Falcon :redf:
 
Looking good, Mr. Piglet ! Looks like I'm moving over to FSX and a new PC at the right time !
 
Got some toasters cobbled together....
If they're so smart, why does it take three of them to fly a Raider(in straight, predictible lines?!)?
They run on Vista? BSOD on all the MFD's?

N332DW has already released a very nice looking Viper with a VC. It would be cool if you could concentrate your efforts on the models which are not available with virtual cockpits yet ? For example the fighters from the Cylons in the 2004 serie ?
And N332DW, when will you update you previous Galactica models to add a VC to them ? :wavey:

Keep and release that Battlestar!

Ahhh the Su-27, the plane that never EVER had a single freeware model with VC in the whole FS history ;) ;) ;) (why not a flanker instead of a viper, Piglet ?)
Appart from this, excellent job as usual !! This model looks stunning, I can't wait to see it in my hangar. :ernae:
If I understood right, this is from the original 1978 Galactica serie right ? So far I have only seen the 2004 serie, which I really enjoy a lot. Maybe I should take a look at the old one as well...
