New Ship Shots Day After Day

The Hydra cockpit to be featured in WC Pioneer has just been detailed and polished up. The plain white opaque walls and struts have been replaced with a more distinctive green, and many of the displays, gauges and indicators have had representative filler data added. Howard Day has also generated another fancy 3D VR mock-up of the area for people with QuickTime to check out. Once this ship gets wrapped up, it looks like a more detailed version of Pioneer's Kilrathi Krant medium fighter will be up next.

This ship's role is that of a gunboat/armored transport. As some of you have noted, the cockpit beams are a bit thick. However, I don't believe that will be much of an issue, given how much overall visibility you have. I've done a rough pass on coloration and the controls. The lighting is temporary, and the controls will change based on the feedback I get from you guys. Enjoy, and as always, feedback is welcomed!
