The reapers have returned from dark space. With Earth under attack and the mass relays in a state of chaos from refugees and the councils fleet engaging reaper forces the galaxy is a mess. The outcome is unknown, the warfare is devastating. The galaxy will never be the same.

Description
Remodeled and Skinned the Systems Alliance fighter. SX3 will not be included (Couldn't find the right font) This vessel is so small it will not make a difference.
Fantastic! Great work.
Great Job loving the detail.
Looks beautiful. I love how the alliance stuff in mass effect actually looks like things Human's would build. The fighter looks like a very advance development on fighter jets of this age, sleek and fast looking, while the cruisers look like a combination between a battleship, a tank, and a sleek aircraft. I love the look of Mass Effect ships
Exactly while the other races have a distinct military yet foreign overall design to tell the difference.
Looks just like it!
Nice! Like it flew right out of the game.
Same problem with the windows as with the Cerberus one: you put the hull paneling over the window section.
I would once again like to mention how the wings of the ME fighters look stupid. firstly wings are useless for space except for looking cool. secondly if its for atmospheric flight why are they not like modern fighters? how would they help?!? if anything they would hinder the craft. stupid
dam good model though
I agree, wings are useless in space, and these ones are not of appropriate shape or size to assist with in atmosphere flight. However I believe that they still do serve a purpose, like storing secondary communications equipment, or even still being used for the same purpose as we use them for today in some aircraft, namely being fuel storage. That is doubtful though considering the widespread use of element zero cores. Still look great regardless of whether or not they serve a purpose, great job on yet another stellar model/skin.
Ships in ME don't have to be aerodynamically pleasing with their kinetic barriers. The barriers neglect wind resistance over the craft and is what holds it up, so technically even if the craft had traditional wings like modern day jets, it wouldn't matter.
To add to the debate, modern fighter jets like the US F16 and F32 are technically impossible to fly without computer aide because their design is aerodynamically unstable. The constant use of flight pitch modifiers on the wings and body are indication that even to today's standards, anything can fly with computers.
Nobody has really gone into depth about fighter armaments and the scale of them, the wings could potentially be fitted with weapons pylons for additional missile storage.
Wings, if they are stable enough, can house weapons. Look at where some modern jets store their rockets: the wings.
so they are taking the x-wing aproach
bump mapping looks off, could use some details on the engines besides being dark gray. But it's a fighter so not too bad.
