VOTE: "Wyvern" Ship Model

[Dragonfire]

The first release of Dark Sky Enterprises OXP, featuring the Wyvern series of ships, will be released soon. Now is your chance to vote on the final design of the Wyvern!

I will only be listing the submission numbers and photos (no names at this time).

RULES:
>Please vote strictly on the merit of the model itself, not on its skinning (or lack thereof) or the modeler (if you know or find out.)
>For those who submitted to the contest, please DO NOT vote for your own model!
>One vote per person.
>Voting ends on Thursday at noon Pacific.
>Discussion of the designs is permitted in the topic, but please be respectful, and refrain from naming who built what.

(For those who might take offense at that, just know I come from a forum admin background. I delineate EVERYTHING to avoid cafuffles.)

I will post the submissions below, and then the current Wyvern specs in the post below for reference.

(And if you all are wondering, yes, I withdrew my design.)

Current specs are as follows. An alternate "uber" version, with even higher specs, will also be created using the same model. However, please base your design on the following five versions:


---
Red Wyvern
Designed for bounty hunters, the Red Wyvern is heavily armed, with a small cargo bay for maximum speed.

Hyperspace capable: Yes
Available to player: Yes
Base Price: 2300000
Tech Level: 8
Chance: 0.2

Green Wyvern
The Green Wyvern is designed with merchants in mind. A large cargo bay and good speed are first in priority. This ship is well armed, though not near as heavily some other models.

Cargo Capacity: 100
Cargo Bay Extension: 25
Maximum Speed: 0.45
Maneuverability:
Roll: 0.8
Pitch: 0.4

Available to player: Yes
Base Price: 2300000
Tech Level: 8
Chance: 0.2

Blue Wyvern
Specially designed for miners, the Blue Wyvern has a moderate cargo bay, but drops many pylon mounts in favor of greater speed than the standard merchant model. In light of the potentially precious cargo, lasers are top priority aboard this vessel.

Cargo Capacity: 50
Cargo Bay Extension: 25
Maximum Speed: 0.50
Maneuverability:
Roll: 0.9
Pitch: 0.5
Energy Banks: 8
Energy recharge rate: 7.0
Gun Mounts: Fore, Aft, Starboard, Port
Missile Slots: 2
Shield Boosters available: Yes
Military Shields available: Yes
Hyperspace capable: Yes
Available to player: Yes
Base Price: 2300000
Tech Level: 8
Chance: 0.2

White Wyvern
A rare, and very expensive version of the Wyvern, designed to combat the Black Wyvern threat (details in mission). This model is so dangerous that GalCop closely monitors the sale of each and every one of them. Often considered an "uber ship", the sales are such that pirates have yet to get their hands on one. And, as such, any pirate who DOES get one, immediately has a VERY sizable bounty on their heads.

(This model is about 1/3 bigger than the standard models)

Cargo Capacity: 5
Cargo Bay Extension: N/A
Maximum Speed: 0.60
Maneuverability:
Roll: 0.7
Pitch: 0.7
Energy Banks: 10
Energy Recharge Rate: 8.0
Gun Mounts: Fore, Aft, Starboard, Port, Plasma Turrets
Missile Slots: 6
Shield Boosters available: Yes
Military Shields available: Yes
Hyperspace capable: Yes
Available to player: Yes
Base Price: 3000000
Tech Level: 10
Chance: 0.1
CLEAN RECORD REQUIRED

Black Wyvern
Illegal, based on stolen blueprints. FINAL SPECS CLASSIFIED, similar to White Wyvern. Not directly manufactured by DSE.

[Dragonfire]

Just a reminder - poll closes tomorrow at around noon Pacific! (That's in 20 hours, if you don't feel like messing around with time zone calculations.)

[Dragonfire]

4 and a half hours left, folks! Get your vote in there.

And the winning model...Submission 3, Version 2, submitted by Zieman. Congrats! Your ship model and skins will be used in the Dark Sky Enterprises OXP.

Thank you to all who submitted their ships.
