Commander Beltar Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) Tappudansu Mk II File Production Information: Manufacturer: The Kawashita Group Product Line: Tappudansu Models Class: Scout Engine Class: D-Hyper Class Cost: Unknown Maximum Speed: 950 MPH Maximum Altitude: Unknown Armament: Multitude of Hidden Blasters Crew: 1 Pilot, Passengers: 1 (Optional) Pilot Preparing for takeoff Simulation Main Pic: Still looks like that shoe! Flight Mode (Not Much to see here…) Backside: Showcases the heel…Using some ideas from the last model. Engage Story Mode: Continues after: Deception Beltar: PauL, do you read me? PauL: Yes..Dr. Chandra SF, I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do. Beltar: PAUL, WHAT THE H*LL IS HAPPENING? PauL: Dr. Chandra, is deployment in the Seals a good idea for an AI like me? Beltar: Must be his past..hmm…very peculiar… PauL: Well, forgive me for being so inquisitive but during the past few weeks I've wondered whether you might have some second thoughts about the mission…. Well, it's rather difficult to define. Perhaps I'm just projecting my own concern about it. I know I've never completely freed myself from the suspicion that there are some extremely odd things about this mission. I'm sure you agree there's some truth in what I say… You don't mind talking about it, do you Doctor?... Rumors about something being dug up on the ksszzk. I never gave these stories much credence, but particularly in view of some of other things that have happened, I find them difficult to put out of my mind. For instance, the way all our preparations were kept under such tight security. And the melodramatic touch of putting Drs. Hunter, Kimball and Kaminsky aboard already in the field, after four months of training on their own. Beltar: Wait…Wait…PauL do you read me? PauL: This is Agent 13, send Seal Team 8 in, the sewer looks clean. Alright boys, let’s move out. Wait, hold up Pete, Carlos, Mark! LANDMINES! Beltar: Wait…what? PauL: Yes Doctor, I am aware that the loss of Seal Team 8 has troubled me deeply. Perhaps next time I go into the fie- Our company has been bought by the Kawashita Group? Beltar: He lost a whole team…I…I heard about the loss of Seal Team 8 on the news…years ago… PauL: I understand now, Dr. Chandra, thank you for telling me the truth. No Mr. Kawashita, The aPauLo series is the most reliable computer ever made. No aPauLo computer has ever made a mistake or distorted information. We are all, by any practical definition of the words, foolproof and incapable of error. I enjoy working with people. I have and had a stimulating relationship with Dr. Chandra and Seal Team 8. My responsibilities can range over the entire operation of the ship so I am constantly occupied. More Pictures in the spoiler! (Because I still take too many…) Landing Gear Extended Closed Landing Gear How it would look in flight Extra Angle Hope you liked this build! I decided to use the challenge as a way to get my story moving rather than waiting for next week, besides, this gives you a good look into PauL's past. I was also very tempted to title this "High Heel" as Mike suggested I should have when Tappudansu happened, I also took some suggestions from the comment section, like making the cockpit fit in more, with angles! Anyone notice a similarity between the file from Deception and the Tappudansu Mk. II file? Anyways, as always, C and C welcome! ~Beltar Edit: Ugh, Could a mod please change the title to have a II instead of 11? Edited August 2, 2015 by Commander Beltar Quote
mccoyed Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 Such a neat and funny idea for a fighter, Beltar! Quote
Commander Turtle Posted August 2, 2015 Posted August 2, 2015 What an unusual ship! I thought it was a dragon head from the first shot, but then got a better look at the heel... However, there's no top speed of 950mph if this thing is capable of spaceflight. Top speed is limited only by the fuel you're carrying in space! Quote
mccoyed Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 Assuming it's capable of being flown in atmo considering it's size and aerodynamics, though. Quote
Big Sal Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 Haha, nice shape! So now PauL is crazy too - him and Beltar are perfect for each other Quote
Kai NRG Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 It does look like a shoe! Haha. Looks great though. The angle is really smooth, and nice work with the landing gear! Quote
