Swordfish II

A MONO Racer that was modified and converted into a starfighter by a mechanic named Doohan and later used by ex-Syndicate bounty hunter Spike Spiegel from 2061 to 2071.

 

I originally had a more involved stand for this, but it seemed too busy for such a sleek design.* By far the most difficult part of the build was figuring out how to attach the two central helicopter blade parts back to back and still have them hold up the weight of the wings. I know the nose isn't supposed to continue under the cockpit like that, but I was unable to find a solution that would hide it without sacrificing the streamlined look of everything.

 

*Said stand has since been re-purposed and redesigned for the Dragonfly.
