Fisher Aerospace Fighter. A mixed mode craft, capable of both space
operations and atmospheric operation.
Still lacking attitude thrusters and unit insignia. I have the
thrusters modelled, but was too lazy to attach them. :) I have a unit
insignia, but I have no idea where to put it on the ship. The insignia
is done up as a mesh, and all exists within one plane. I could put it
on the top of the nose, perhaps, or on the underside of the wing, but
owing to the way the top of the wing buckles, I can't put it there
without it looking REALLY stupid. And that's where I'd really like it.
I decided I didn't like my previous Fisher model. Far too many
problems. So I threw it out and started over. Same general fuselage
arrangement, though I moved the fuel tanks to under the wings. The
wings themselves are radically different, and I think better looking.
Comments? Criticism? Tomatoes?

The wing, fuselage and tailfin are all one big mesh.

...Maybe. It's not a technique I've really heard of. I'm still a
newbie. I'll check the manual on that.
