(I wonder what a 'welcome wagon' in Star Wars would be, actually.)
Greetings, nonetheless. Its a pleasure to be here. I'm planning on scouting the subforums for a while before engaging in any real action. I want to familiarize myself first.
I already have character designs though, and I've sketched my own Star Wars ships before, so I have some personal model designs, as well as one or two based off pre-existing designs (A retrofit for the KT-400 droid carrier, but designed for people/aliens/etc, for example).
I am curious, however, where to post general questions. If nobody minds, I actually have a question right now, permitting.
I've scanned parts of the Starship Creation thread, and wonder where I can post general questions? The classification for fighters confuse me. Fighters in general are between 1-17 meters in length as opposed to the listed 1-50m (the longest example I was willing to extend my search to being the B-Wing at 16.9m). I think of Freighters and scout ships - Slave I is actually a modified scout-class - though "transport class" unfortunately doesn't include scout ships cit. , and would personally classify between 20-50m, instead of grouping all of them and star fighters into a 1-50m group. Fighters serve much different roles than the larger ships like the YT series, Dynamic Class, or D5 Mantis, the size grouping I figure is also different, so I'm a bit confused as to why they're all grouped in to one category. Slave ships are actually bigger, so despite the name, Slave I, is not actually a slave ship. cit. It does get a little messy though as there are a lot of ship classifications that fall between the 20-50m range - I would still humbly ask the reason why the 1-50m range ships aren't separated into 1-20m and 20-50m.
Anyway, I was just intending on saying hello, but I guess I got off topic there. Either way, I look forward to being a part of the community.
