PCS-TRAV: Pre-Classic Space Totally Ruthless Attack Vehicle

Admiral Giddens’ recent outpouring of PCS creations got me in a building
mood, so I dismantled the
PCS-VIC and focused
on building a starfighter for PCS fleets. The completed model is small and
agile, and features weaponry similar to its larger PCS brethren but more
proportional to its diminutive size. In numbers, the TRAV annihilates enemy
fleet units. Pilots are encouraged to experiment with the TRAV, to push it
past its limits to discover new engine, shooter, and armor adaptations.
It still contains a couple of VIC details, but is a significantly different
craft. As Communications Specialist of PCS Intelligence who oversaw
implementation of the Vital Information Courier line, I contributed much time
and effort to the development of this new starfighter.
When the time came to think of a name, I could think of only one thing;
Travis, our recently lost friend. I’ve christened this new ship in his honor.

Interesting shape Ryan. I like the tapering to the back...gives it that
mass-produced look. The steering wheel on the front looks nice and greeblie,
but the mini dish...I dunno. Looks a little added on. Mebbe something could be
done with the bricks of the nose themselves? A very, very minor point.
Cheers,

That, along with the removal of the long angled wings, is an improvement over the design of the VIC, which after a while I found myself staring at and saying "That just doesn't look PCS enough to (...)
