Thank you to everyone who's been with me on this journey. I'll be taking a break for a good while once I'm fully done with the after post stuff of the Quechal ghost
@Solent19 I pride myself on making smooth, near timeless looking designs. @ThomasRoderick (someone I very often ask for opinions) would agree too. He knows how much I like to overdo the beauty over functionality 💀
It has been getting better with the newer stuff I make though, the form follows function ideaology.
Simply put, try making each of your fuselage pieces purposeful to a sort of... "Flow". One piece transitions to another.
THAT SAID
-It doesn't actually fly properly without the weapons due to badly balanced CG to the point where it can't even take off
-People download it WITHOUT The weapons attached, which alone is not really a good thing, but okay, you wanted to show the weapons in a cool way, let people choose and all, but it not being able to fly without them is a problem.
-For what it is, that cockpit doesn't even have a screen.
Don't let that discourage you because those are just criticisms. There's things to like here like
-Good design. Everything flows and the wings are big enough to accommodate more weight which will help with CG.
-The concept in general of letting people choose weapon loadouts is interesting, but it needs to be better executed.
Read the entire thing and I am left rather... I won't say confused, but disoriented. There's huge potential here. The concept of switching to the ethereal being state or whatever that is meant to be can be used immensely well if executed well
Here though... it's uh... it's just daunting. I can't tell what is happening and the main character literally seems to not give a shit. That said, the descriptions that you wrote are great. It paints a vivid picture... and there is, having read the entire thing, a possibly good plot at play here. But it does need a heck of a lot of work to reach that potential it set. Let me know if you want me to try writing it in my way and attempt to fix the issues I pointed out
To elaborate on the clarity thing, early on, I can't tell what the stakes are at hand. I can't tell what is going on until much later when the action has long since started. It's only when our main character is beelining towards the broken tubes that I realized that the guys need to fix it quick or the ship can't fire back.
@ZerkkOtakuGuy what the hell... its my birthday too.
Lets go dude.
Added bonus, I abso-fricking-lutely love Bocchi. That one scene with here improvised solo, holy crap!
The more I explore the Sight the more I realise that so many of these planes are missed oppurtunities for the novaran fighter challenge xD
This is amazing!
@DrakonDynamics I finished the final version. Unfortunately since Mig wanted a theme for his jet too, the Ghost gon get a little more delayed but I think I can make it before 25th.
@DrakonDynamics
This might seem like a weird place to tag you but this is relevant to the Novaran Fighter challenge. It is literally a theme song for my fighter.
...If it wasn't already obvious, I'm not going easy on myself with the lore and all.
This isn't even the final version of the theme xD
I'll probably use the final one in a teaser.
@ThomasRoderick It's more the weird imagery that comes to mind as an effect.
Something is off if I'm seeing eyes and hearing screams while looking at boiling water.
@YarisSedan I literally went mad making sure it looked right.
@ThomasRoderick Helped with that... Not necessarily hands on work, but a lot of really good suggestions like the stuff with the LERX.
I'm working on this thing so much now that forget the ambition being blown out fo proportion, this is out of my skillset as a person. I'm pushing too hard on this and the fact that it's literally on my mind 24/7 now is... well it's something; So every little compliment feels nice...
So thank you!
@DwiAngkasaAeronautics
Beautiful plane man. Amazing work as per usual. Just wanted to also let you know that it's nice havin' ya around bud. We don't know much about you but is sure as heck doesn't feel good knowing you've been down. Whatever happens, know that atleast I would love to keep supporting you and your stuff. Have fun man and take care!
@overlord5453 No. It is an actual person who got an AI version of herself because she had to go on a very long hiatus. She basically had her prime time in like 2016-ish where she was a Vtuber pretending to be an AI. She didn't pick up much international steam until she did the iconic "Faakkkk yo", which was meme'd all over and then the world fell in love.
From there, VTubing became an actually popular format, effectively setting the stage for it in global audiences.
Ironmouse, ShyLily, every HololiveEN or 3rd to 4th gen Hololive Japanese, Bao, many others included have one person to collectively thank for bringing the initial reach of VTubing to a global audience. That is Kizuna AI... Or AI channel... or AI gaming... Or the other few aliases or versions she has, like her AI version called KZN.
Hope this clears up the whole history.
Now what happened is some controversy best not brought up for the sake and purpose of this comment is that she had to go on an indefinite hiatus. When it did happen, I feel like the entire community realises that KIZUNA is not the only talent who could disappear due to corporate problems and such... It was a bittersweet day for us all because that was the first time we saw someone major in the industry.... Just say her goodbyes and basically not talk again.
It's been nearly 5 years I believe now and that means fans around the world have been waiting patiently (among some disappointments that came from the KIZUNA management in between) since half a decade or so now...
So... Having gotten an actual release date... After having a live that has gone on for 6 months, is one of the most maddening pieces of information we've gotten in ages.... That live that she started 6 months ago is still ongoing and has now changed up a little which you can check out by the way by clicking of course.
It's really cool because by typing some prompts in chat, the thing actually reacts and plays a video of one of her songs
Aw man, I just got simpleplanes a few months ago... I dont want to have to buy it all over again :(
+8@overlord5453 YES. I'M THE ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD!

Cuz DANG they put some effort and then decided it t lovingly called it Darzerkk

Wonder how it'd look if you uploaded your own iteration of the echostar.

+2@OrangeConnor2 just did.
+2@Graingy I---don't---know---i---ended---up---typing---away
+2@ThomasRoderick This man really had to come out and make everything anyone would ever need for a cockpit 2 years later, eh?
Can't blame him. I would have used every last one of these in the Echostar if I had the chance only because this some quality product right here🤌🤌
+2I just wanna say, that as of right now, 11 minutes after posting this... we have more upvotes than download... 💀
+2@ThomasRoderick
@Bloodius
