Allied Avenger 2.0

My most recent take on the classic Blacktron 2 ship, Allied Avenger. It utilizes a cockput desiged by pasukaru, which is an awesome design.

Please tell me what you think!

I like it. It has a great shape... It almost has an insect appearance to it, with the angled back wings.

The look is quite like the original one, in that case I would prefer the 6887 Allied Avenger. Your design is nicely done but still to close to the origin. Your have done a good job in using new building technics and in that case it is well done. Do not missunderstand me, it is a nice moc, but for beeing really cool something is missing to outrange the 6887!

Thanks for the comments!

Elch, perfectly understandable. Very few MOCs (especially mine, IMO) will ever be able to stand up the the pure awesomeness that is 6887.

I think you could do the rear elevator(?) in a way that doesn't require tiling the studs.

That never even occured to me... I'll have to go see if i can do something about that.

Very nice, especially love the landing mode and new cockpit design. And how it's so close to the original design, the only detail you left out is the hole in the wings. Great redesign overall with cool changes to freshen it up.
