The more I thought about it the less I liked the idea of the small lights.  Here's where I am headed with it at the moment.  The greenish windows seems good to me.

Just a though but the big lights make the ship feel, well small, delta flyer small, the small lights give a feel about the ship like you dont have to worry about banging your head on some overhead nut or bolt,and thus plenty of room, maybe you can find a happy middle such as small lights with a large gathering room window(such as 10 forward or something)for a good view of things to be blown to bits :knuppel2:

I believe the small window fits better then the bigger ones. :)

Atolm, your comments are always welcomed mate.  Not exactly sure what I can do with them at this stage of the development.

well I've only one comment and one question...
1-where are the warp nacelles(if integrated, then where?  If nacelles, then were do you plan on adding them)? I ask cause there are a lot of cool things you can do, like adding a lower wing(creating a curved bi-plane configuration) in which 1-2 nacelles could be attached to.... Or if they are integrated, then would they be in the wings, to give them purpose...
2-if you go with separate nacelles, then you can thin out the height of the wings so that they become thinner the further they go towards the tips.  If again they are integrated into the wings themselves then I would opt the opposite, by thickening the wings a bit to store the extra bulk that would be the nacelle.

Egads, I totally forgot about nacells.  If it stays a fighter, are nacells required?  If integrated into the wing, would this look reasonable location wise?

well based on the windows, I'd say the ship is runnabout-size in length, that means that she should have warp nacelles.

While I ponder the warp nacell issue, here is the ole gal completely textured.

great work as usual keep it up. as for the nacelles maybe slightly extrude the wing area and create a front and rear grillwork.

Well other than resolving the nacell issue this baby is done.  I did throw the nacells (or at least I think there are nacells) from the Reman Saif on her.  THey actually looked good so I may make some along those lines.  Still not so sure.

To be honest, I totally forgot about this poor little shippy.  I wonder if this would work as a scout class vice figther, adding a nacell of sorts under each wing.
