I like the wingless variant, even though both of them are a bit poly-overkill...

the EAW default y-wing is 1500 poly, the mon cal bomber is 3k poly, while the figher is 5k poly.

a little large for a fighter, but still within reason

Any mon cala ships ( viscount , mediator ? ) will be able to launch those or will they just be a special defense unit which can be found on dac?

Only found on Dac, launched from orbital defense stations

So is Dac what the Mon Cal call them selves? Is Mon Cal considered derogatory? By the way you continually amaze with your wonderful work.

Dac is the name of the planet, it is inhabited by 2 species: the Mon Calamri and the Quaren. Mon Calamari live generally near the surface, while Quaren live deep in the ocean depths. They both reside in giant city towers that go from the surface of the ocean down deep into the depths.

I see, thanks for the quick reply. Are the Quaren going to be portrayed in any way or will the Calamari be dominant?

I mean that the wings are too straightforward, if they look more curved like in the pic on Starwars.wikia it would be perfect

Ah yes, true, but we are trying to save on poly counts, it is only a fighter, so it is small. Curves take a lot of polygons to make a 3d model with, and this taxes the game.

They look so much more 'Mon Cal' than my fighters that I'm a little sad.
Excellent job Niko.

Description

While not commonly used amongst the Mon Cal fleet ships, these planetary assault fighters were designed to serve need to protecting local Dac space. heavy armored and strong shilelded, the fighters had comparably slower speeds to fighters such as the X wing and Ewing, but made up for the handicap by employing powerful repeater lasers and ion cannons on the fighter with while the bomber featured ion weaponry and proton torpedo launchers, but lacked offensive/deffensive laser weaponry
