SciFi and Fantasy Art: Hellion fighter

This is my version of Christopher R. Lum's (gallery 142) Hellion fighter. The Hellion fighter is very agile and a fairly quick craft using fans instead of jets which allow it greater maneuverability, lower fuel consumption and smaller mass. Unfortunately the trade off is overall speed. The Hellion has 4 machine guns as energy weapons are useless against other craft using energy conductive armour. This version of the Hellion relies heavily on support craft like the Gladius for re-fueling, re-arming and sensor information. This was done 3DStudio Max 3

11 Aug 2001	Anneke Hut	Loading... Duncan, this is so perfectly done. It is really amazing how professional you are. It seems like I'm looking at a real fighter. The colours are so beautiful, especially the grey metallic. I think it is the shade beneath the fighter that makes it looking so real, I don't know, I just love this. Very very brilliant work Duncan.
13 Aug 2001	Christopher R. Lum	Loading... Just looking at this makes me think: futuristic race car with lasers! (hmm...could be a start of a new racer/shooter game eh?) I like the trim and sleek look of your Hellion much better than the bulky one I had. It makes it look more aerodynamic and combat-worthy. Now then, let's see those tanks and these hellions meet at the flagpole for some good ol' fashion rumbling, huh?
26 Dec 2001	Matthew J. Richardson	Loading... Very cool concept. More, more, more...
6 Jan 2002	Jacob S. Wendel	Loading... It looks a bit like a mix between an Orca from C&C and a car. The weapons don't really look like machineguns though, the barrel-shape is wrong. It also doesn't look like it has been used at all, but I guess even fighters were built some time
26 Jan 2002	Aaron Weaver	Loading... Cool looking fighter. Could be in a fighting/racing game. Would like to see more of these. If this fighter is on a carrier, the maintenance people probably make sure it works and looks good.
15 Feb 2002	Duncan Maclean	Loading... That's pretty much the idea Aaron There are quite a few of this craft on board something like the Gladius and the maintenance crew keep all of them in factory fresh condition so every fighter will handle, reach the same speeds and look the same as the one before it.
