It’s part of a series of fighters that I’m putting together, the Mythological series (if anyone can come up with a better name though, I’m all ears). The Scarab was the first, this is the second, and I’ll be posting the third fairly soon.

Originally I had planned to build a fighter that was basically a flying gun, with the ship basically being support to that gun. Well, all the “Big Guns” I built were a little disappointing but that the idea of a bomber hit me and the yellow and Dark Red colour scheme followed suit, and thus the Chimaera was born

I like it. I especially like the shape of the bombs, and the cones that stick out from the bottom. There’s a hatch at the back of the bomb-bay, is there anything in there? Some sort of ECM perhaps?

I can’t say that I think tan was the right color of battle droid arms to use though.
