First thanks to Cthulhu for the upper engine mount. I have had this in mind for a while but did not know what to do with the third engine. This is an early Pre Cylon attack BSG Viper. It is the first exo atmospheric Viper. I just started yesterday.
I amuse me.

EPIC WIN!

Pure genius! Anyone who has ever seen a single episode of BSG will instantly recognize this as a prototype/ancestors of the BSG Vipers. It looks just sooooo very right! :bow:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Sweet!

It reminds me just a little bit of the old fighter in the episode where they find the long-lost Ambrosia distilling penal colony.  Only yours is much more svelte.  I'll be watching this one. :thumbsup:

Looking slinky Ron!  Recentley saw screenshots of a proto-Viper from Caprica (not seen the show myself), this makes for a great similar addition to the original series.  Coo-ul! :ph34r:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Thanks all y'all  :wub: Nox I have not seen that episode yet. Is that new or old series?
Mossie I saw that pic too. It looks like it has a P-40 nose and forward swept wing right.
