Title: Have a Star Wars Ship!
Post by: flyingmice on December 06, 2017, 09:34:03 PM
I got in to work this morning and couldn't log in - as a contractor my credentials die once a month if my boss doesn't renew them, and he forgot, so I sat at my desk and drew this ship while I waited to get renewed. I did the interior later when I got home. You all might as well enjoy it. :D

I see this was designed lopsided in true Corellian style.:D

It's kind of a combination of Corellian, Naboo, and Mon Calamari aesthetics... :D

I was going to say the left or "hangar" half looked a bit Mon Calamari seafood-inspired. I don't know Naboo...I thought he was the little green spacemen who visited Fred  Flintstone now and then.

That was the Great Kazoo! :D Naboo is the planet both Padme and Palpatine are from, and their aesthetics are pretty much "why do it if it isn't elegant?" The droid Rack or Stable inside is a Naboo thing.

Thanks, Jeff! I have stats for it, but they would be useless as they are for my Star Wars-ish The Next Generation game. Let's see if I can translate into universals... it's armed with a dual laser cannon turret aimed by a gunner, and a straight ahead concussion missile launcher operated by the pilot or copilot. It's not that fast, but not slow either, and it has a solid hyperspace drive rated at 2, with a backup rated at 12. It's not CEC or Kuat or Sienar, so its hard to get parts, unless you are in the local area.

Shields are strong, but the frame is weakened by that big void on the left side. If you partitioned it, it would be much stronger, but not as suited for large or free moving loads. You could fit another couple X-wing fighters in there, making it a mini-carrier. You could probably fit more A-wings, as they are smaller and blockier. The living quarters are nice, with a lot of open space in the galley/lounge/dining area.

Very nice Clash! I could have used one of those about 10 years ago when I was looking for small or medium freighter designs that could carry an X-wing. If you haven't already done so the folks over at the Rancor Pit (http://www.rancorpit.com/forums/) would really enjoy your ship and I'm sure someone would create D6 stats for it.

Not all CEC ships have offset cockpits, the YT-1000 series for example has a centrally located one.  What is common among the YT series is a disk-shaped hull.  So to my eyes, this ship has CEC conceits, but it's not designed with anyone who would associate themselves with Corellia.

My head canon says it was designed by an alien who thinks it's a perfect copy of a YT 1300. :D

I hate to ask, but is there a larger version of that freighter image?  I can barely read it, and I want to use it as is for a Rebels game I'm starting soon.

I'm on a SW marathon-thinking atm since I recently joined an SWRP and made a customized corvette for my character Tyra Zann

Thanks CR! Glad you are enjoying them! I am working on Star Wars ships for my next campaign, poking around for ship plans to present to my pcs. I wasn't even intending making one myself. So no, making more isn't in the plans. I'll leave that to the pros! This was just for fun! :D
