Is this the inspiration Trooper? Not exactly the same. Enough similarities that it could be the inspiration, but enough differences that I am not sure...

God damn that's a sweet ship. If you can put some decals on it i'll be drowning people in my drool

As fer inspiration, it looks like a ship from Starship Troopers.

Starship Troopers, right? In the finale "March on to Victory" mini-ad where they say "We got the guns! We got the ships! But we need troops! and so on and on."

ACK! I had thought "Quark" had slipped into the well-deserved abyss of forgottenness. Boy does this remind me how non-young I am...

Wow! That is one sweet looking ship Trooper.

I want the whole shipset now! Please.

One suggestion I'd make is to give it just a bit of color or a decal or something. Anything to add more then just plain silver. But if you don't, it will still be a great shipset.

Katchoo and Iggiboo : Congratulations, you have wun the contest, I see that some here know their classics by heart. I gonna justify my avatar, at Last.

Ragnarok; no, you won't have it now, it will be a long and painfull process, as usual. Especially long this time, as I'm probably going back to work soon...

Yes, I'll put more color on some parts, this silver gray is nice but quite uniform...

Looking very good. Metallic shipsets are a very dangerous thing as they can look terrible or they can look amazing (like the Federal Union) This one trooper falls into the amazing Category

I really like the overall look of that ship, it's not very alien though, more like something humanoids would build (obviously cos it was humans who made it in starship troppers) I like the look of the engines as well, they seem to grab my attention. Overall looking good!
