I'm working on spacecraft again. This is a fighter concept for my M'kkiae War story line. It's a pretty simple picture, with Earth and moon textures from NASA. I did put some bump on the Earth material to give the land and clouds some roughness. That part looks pretty cool anyway. Thanks for viewing and commenting. --- It took us three years, but by the summer of 2257, we'd finally reverse-engineered enough salvaged Easterner and M'kkiae hyper-string pseudo gravity pods to build HSPG units compact enough to fit in a two seater. The Avengers would fit in a 6X15 ship bay with the pods retracted. And the base unit could hold eight full-sized ship-killer drones. That whole reactionless acceleration thing really made fighters useful again.

We could launch from far outsystem, drive up to a few percent of cee and coast into the thick of it undetected. Too bad they were so fragile, though. One hit to one pod and the show was all over.
