I'm calling this a prototype because....reasons.

Reasons being that I found a little program that lets me see the ship I am looking at from ALL angles and while this does resemble the Nyx, that is all it does.

I realized that I had got it wrong, but it still looks OK and flies reasonably well, so I did not want to put it in the bin as it were.

I cleaned it up and added a few things, such as the 'nose cones' on the 'engines' so there would not be gaping holes all over the place.

The wing separation is supposed to be there, in the real one it is even bigger than that.

Controls as per normal, you need to fly it off the ground, but flies slightly up after that.

Weapons are not placed anywhere near where they should be, the minigun in the mouth is there because I reckon it should spit fire from there.

The Nyx is a player made ship from the Discovery Mod for Freelancer, so credit for the original design goes to the Creator, Doom. I hope I can do much better next time.
