So, obviously, this ship isn't finished, but based on some parts I was slapping together at the RVA LUG meeting this weekend, I think this is a pretty solid and cost-effective design for a Class 4 Corvette.  I've left the hardpoints sans-pewpew for now; hopefully that'll be a surprise for next time we gather.  :)  I still have to figure out what I want to do with the blank forward area that will contain the bridge, but I think that's going to be easier in brick.  This drawing was mainly to see how much of what parts do I need to plan on ordering.  I think I might try and get together an Olympus fleet, since we've talked a good bit about them as a factional presence, but haven't done much with them.  I'm thinking White with Dark Blue accents?  Eh?

I like it.  The color combo of Dark Blue and white is pretty cool.  This could be really great start on an Olympic Fleet.  A back story could be sort of the like the Tornado Jet in Europe.  It will was built by a collection of manufacturers in Europe and was available to all the participating countries for use in their Air Force.  This would be similar to NATO equipment as well.  In space this platform and others to follow could be shared designs for other factions.  Consolidated and other factions would not be able to use the White and Blue color Scheme, but could use their own color schemes and hardware configurations.  A standard Olympus ship configuration could be helpful in fast setups for games.

Thanks for posting this.
