Preliminary blurry spyphoto:

This was originally supposed to be a fighter. When i saw how square and bulky
it became, I decided to add the cargo compartment. Then it looked empty, so i
made the little speeder thing. Im still in the process of building and adding
on, but im kinda stumped and looking for suggestions right now. Heres the
links:

The wing guns swing down to support the wings. 6 click hinges per wing is
hardly enough to support all the weight

This is the removable shelf im quite proud of. It slides in the top for
larger items or goes in the middle for better loading of shorter stuff:

Here are a few close-ups of the little car:

This is my 2nd attempt at a space vehicle, and I could really use some tips or
ideas.

OK, here we go...
I think the turret on the top would look better if both barrels were tied
together (maybe it was just the one pic I looked at. The rest seemed to have the
barrels elevated at the same angles). I don’t think a gunner will have the
ability to track a target with two individual cannons. Of course, you could
always say that he has a computer assist.
I think the cargo pod is a little out of place. It looks like it was tacked on.
I think you could remove it and rework the bottom of the craft to be a bomber.
With the turret on top, it reminds me of the WWII era bombers. If you still want
a freighter, try smoothing the corners so that the pod isn’t so squarish. Make
it blend more with the body of the craft.
I like the little red speeder. Kind of a cross between a racing boat and a
personal water craft. All the new curved bricks seem to make it easier to design
sleek little things like that.
Another thing I really like is the hatch. I know that design came up some months
ago, but I haven’t really seen it used that often. I like how you’ve adapted it
for the 6 x 6 dish.
You’re definitely improving! Keep up the good work.
