Fast and light, the Photon Chaser is built to get in, perforate some hulls, and get away fast. With minimal armor, it can't take much return fire, but it is fast enough for that to not matter much. While not as heavily armed as some beefier fighters, its dual 5-barreled cannons can still do some damage.
Built for Nnovvember 2020, this is my first ever Vic Viper. This actually started in late October with one of the wings as a vertical fin on another ship I was working. After messing with that for a while and getting nowhere, I realized that what I really had was a Vic Viper wing, and since Novvember was coming up, I ran with it. That other ship may still make an appearance at some point, but now that I've used the wings for this I'm going to do something different with that build.
For most of my MOCs I've built dark, featureless display stands that are supposed to melt into the background and not distract from the rest of the build when it's photographed or displayed against a black backdrop. For this one, though, a black background wouldn't have worked due to all the black around the edges of the ship. Since the stand was going to be a prominent feature when this thing is displayed, I took a couple of additional days of building to make it pretty. I was going for a vaguely Alien look.

"Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter"
Hmm, after all you put me through
You'd think I'd despise you
But in the end, I wanna thank you
'Cause you made me that much stronger
Well I, I thought I knew you
Thinkin' that you were true
Guess I, I couldn't trust
Called your bluff, time is up, 'cause I've had enough
You were there by my side, always down for the ride
But your joy ride just came down in flames
'Cause your greed sold me out in shame, mm-hmm
After all of the stealing and cheating
You probably think that I hold resentment for you
But uh-uh, oh no, yeah, you're wrong
'Cause if it wasn't for all that you tried to do
I wouldn't know just how capable
I am to pull through
So I wanna say thank you
'Cause it
Makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
I never saw it coming
All of your backstabbing
Just so you could cash in on a good thing before I realized your game
I heard you're goin' 'round playin' the victim now
But don't even begin feeling I'm the one to blame
'Cause you dug your own grave
After all of the fights and the lies
Guess you're wanting to haunt me
But that won't work anymore
No more, uh-uh, it's over
'Cause if it wasn't for all of your torture
I wouldn't know how to be this way now and never back down
So I wanna say thank you
I don't need you to save me
I don't need you to cure me
I don’t need you and your antidote for I am my disease
I don't need you to free me
I don't need you to help me
I don't need you to lead me through the light
I will always fall and rise again
Your venomous heroine
'Cause I am a survivor
Yeah, I am a fighter
I will fall and rise above
And in your hate I find love
'Cause I'm a survivor
Yeah, I am a fighter
My dear family member is
now on the bed of death…
However, he is the cancer fighter .
I won't give up anything

Small tandem fighter featuring many guns.
Had to change this around from the original intended build cause of being fucked over on bricklink (not PBD) and edited without a working keyboard so I hope you guys still like it. This thing is actually really cool. I'll try to post more images of other angles and perhaps build this one on LDD as I think I'm going to keep this as my new desk model.

Using the same exact scene that I uploaded like two days ago but... eh, what the hell. The WW2 builders do it all the time.
And I liked this photo, so, yeah.

Here I see the biggest problem with bluerender: It can't handle transparent objects.
In LDD, the canopy is of the "transparent" colour, so the least coloured one. Here it's black and completely reflective. I don't know if bluerender even allows for transparent surfaces, or maybe it's an error with LDD's colours.
The aging AX-9 "Gunfighter" was sorely in need of replacement in the late 2430's. Hyperius Industries, already cementing a great deal of rapport with the USMF for their "Aquila" class scout, proposed this design to fill the heavy fighter roll.
The "Scorpion" class was given its name for the large mandible-type protrusions from the front of the cockpit area. These armatures were needed to house the massive heavy repeating lasers. Typically, these weapons were used as point defense on capital ships, and no one but the brilliant minds at Hyperius would have dared mounting such fearsome weaponry on a one-man ship. In addition to the heavy repeating lasers, the "Scorpion" also features two gauss cannons mounted on the wings and a pair of missile launchers beneath.
Though a few components are shared between the "Scorpion" and it's smaller brother the "Aquila" (namely the protected cockpit/pilot housing) the "Scorpion" could not be more different. It is quickly becoming the go-to favorite of USMF dogfighting aces. The "Scorpion" is a fierce threat to enemy fighters and heavier craft as well.
Worked on this last week, I have been wanting to do something like this ever since I was inspired by the Call of duty infinite war trailer came out. I don't play the games but the trailers sure are epic. XD
Happy Fourth of July everyone!
Shippy made for a building challenge presented by Rancorbait :
- Seed parts: 3x www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=57906 Any color.
- unlimited www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=2340 Any color.
- No specific theme or genre, just build
Decided to go triangular vertical fighter. Used the seed part as outer shields to the guns on the three struts. The struts themselves are the second part. The centered bubble canopy opens and reveals a comfy pilot seat.
The "Dragonfly" is a fighter-bomber based on the "Lancer" archetype suggested on "The Rocketpunk Manifesto." Designed to attack SHIPS, the dragonfly features powerful engines to accelerate to great speeds on its attack vector. Like a dive bomber, the Dragonfly aims to release its payload as closely and accurately to its target as possible before making a last-minute maneuver to veer off. Instead of a traditional munition, however, it bears a rod of high-density metal with enough of a basic rocket engine to separate from the fighter and provide minor course corrections.
The mass torpedo is a rod of high density metal with a simple rocket system which has been scored to break up on impact, this allows it to impart as much force upon its target as possible- a concept similar to hollow-point bullets. The mass torpedo is also resistant to point defense, as a hit will usually break it into a number of high velocity projectiles rather than deflecting away. (And, most notably, it cannot be detonated prematurely like a traditional munition.) Although torpedos are typically made of tungsten, there have been reports of specimens with magnesium oxide, and even radioactive material layers having been deployed against habitats.
The Dragonfly comes equipped with an adequate pair of conventional cannons to spar with other fighters, as well as a hybrid gyroscope and adjustable rocket maneuvering system capable of pointing them in the needed direction quickly. The fixed nature of its armaments and its typical mission parameters put it at a disadvantage against purpose built interceptors and point defense ships. The Dragonfly is best deployed with additional craft to support it.

AN X WING! I'm quite happy with this: i decided to build an "X" on the most classical way and, guys, was sooooo funny!!!
I named it XADHOOM, to tribute one of the best comic that i ever read (and, it reminds me to a sweet childhood...o guys, what a fun summers there!!! :)....google PK (paperinik), and you'll find an old disney comics, made in Italy, about a super Donald Duck....
