Hey guys,
I figured I’d been out of the loop for long enough and needed to throw some
bricks together. Here’s what I got:
The Irezumi - Jade Empire Fighter (click the pic)
My intent with this craft was to try to create a bit of middle ground between
Ryan Wood’s and Keith Goldman’s JE crafts. Not sure if I succeeded at that, but
I’m happy with how it turned out, especially being a bit rusty. I had no idea
of how this craft would look when I started; I just had the idea for the front
of it and went from there.
Oh yeah, and big kudos to Jon for that sweet Robriq design that I so
conveniently stole. :-)
And for those interested, the name:
http://encyc.bmezine.com/?Irezumi
Enjoy.

| (...) Really nice model, Chris. The shape of it is really appealing. I enjoy how organic-looking the JE stuff people are presenting is. The little zemi-bot on back is a nice addition too. I like the spamcake power-core detail, but placing such (...) (20 years ago, 24-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| C-Mad, I think this is the best JE moc so far...there is so much to like about this one. It looks good from every angle, but the nose is especially erotic. I really dig the use of the dino-tails that Ryan encoprated in his moc, and also the power (...) (20 years ago, 24-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| This is extremely cool! It fits perfectly in the Jade Empire theme, but it also represents your trademark (and famous) fighter-craft style. Build lots more stuff like it! (20 years ago, 24-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) I clicked, and I was floored. What an outstanding moc. I gotta side with Keith, this is the best rendition of JE we've seen yet. I really like the organic-yet-mechanical look and feel of the whole thing, and that you managed to get the dino (...) (20 years ago, 25-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) I think you succeeded very well. JE's style is really filling out and looking good. This fighter looks amazingly well thought-out, with just the right amount of style and detail. Bravo, Chris! Can't wait to see more. -Lenny (20 years ago, 25-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Chris, Awesome craft and craftsmanship (apart from that which is inherent to the brick already). I have to agree with everyone else that this is the best JE ship to date. The design, details, and sweetness of it are plain (...) (20 years ago, 25-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| Dude, excellent model. It has a Marauder from Buck Rogers meets a Romulan thing going for it that I really like. Love the techno organic feel plus the shmoovenes. Good to have ya in da space. ~^- (URL) ~^- Admiral Giddens <>< (URL) space. ~^- (URL) (20 years ago, 27-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Awlright! Looking forward to your return to building, and looks like it was well worth the wait. Great stuff man...that fine balance between tech and creeping oogieness has been achieved. I really love how you've used the old skool overall (...) (20 years ago, 27-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) snip Way to return to the loop, Chris. This is another 'me too' post. This is a great MOC. The 'reversed' wings give it a very focussed, aggressive feel. The tails and whiskers give it a crustaceanesque(1) quality that's sure to be a Jade (...) (20 years ago, 27-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| Awesome! This is the coolest JE moc to date. I love the dragon-esque look it has. It looks like one of those ships that leads others into combat, and then kicks butt! Wonderful job! Now I've got to find a way to incorporate dino tails into my JE (...) (20 years ago, 28-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) I know I'm coming in late on this, but this really is a sweet ship. Very swoosh-able, clean lines, great color distribution. Definitely a template for Jade Empire ships, and--as you say--a nice blend in style to match previous JE MOCs. Derek (20 years ago, 29-Apr-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
