The banana ship tends to fly in bunches.
Hahahah, I crack myself up!
Also, yes, you can eat the ship, if you so desire and find metals tasty.

Banana ships are flown by bunchies? I thought it was a well-known fact that Bunchies fly UFO's.
and they shoot banana bombs, better watch out!! (anyone ever played worms?)
Boredom strikes again!

And a QTVR file which if you are lucky might even work.

Originally meant as the UIT anwser to CP's attack ship. But it looks like it got a little fat for that. :P
EDIT: You have to download the QTVR file before viewing it. For some reason it always gets corrupted when I try to make it streamable.

LOL Looks like a yellow hand grenade, spuck!
Holy Hand Grenade Batman!
Looks like a prom that sat in front of the TV every day for a year eating nothing but potato chips.
I've got another model which is (as of now) untextured. I'll post a textured version when I get the time to texture it.

950 polys (about), and it can be knocked down a bit more by getting rid of a few of the unneccecarily detailed features, like the guns and the 2 openings in the nose.
Edit: I was poking around some of my old work, and figured it'd be worth posting this up here too. Ignore the name, as it doesn't really have one yet. :P

And note that the very top ship (Apollo) is the one that pirate_n00b is referring to in his post below.

I think you should add some more polys to the cockpit of the apollo, and maybe figure out something to do with the aft section. Cut in a depression and add a rear turret, or something.
Yeah, I had a many more polys for the cockpit before I went and simplified it for ingame use. I'll post something later, but I don't really think that the ship is big enough to warrant a rear turret though. It's not meant to be a huge ship. I'll tinker with the aft, see what I can do with it too.
I think the bottom ship looks Itani while the top one looks more like a Serco Ship. However, the weapoons of the one on the bottom are kinda vague. It looks like 20 heavy ports.
/looks for a place to hide from the ship with 20 ATGs
/looks for a place to hide from the ship with 20 ATGs
Hehe...I wasn't meaning to imply 20 L ports, but it merely reflected my concept of muliple launch spots for missiles. I think that we should have multiple mount points for missiles and guns, because something like Swarms ought not to all file out of the launcher in a line, nor should they continue following each other to their target. They ought to launch in a somewhat random trajectory, and "swarm" to their target, rather than play "follow the leader" to their target.
I'll post something in suggestions that better illustrates my concept of this.

Nothing illustrates swarm missiles than Japanese Anime. Macross, and etc.

What?
What?
I meant to say: "Nothing illustrates swarm missiles better than Japanese Anime."
Macross (originally marketed as "Robotech" in America) is one of the originators of the missile swarm from hell. Usually the missiles shoot out radially from the launcher, and form a weaving pattern approaching the target.

The rocketlauncher from Unreal II also has a really nice swarm feature. You first lock the 4 missiles. When you fire, you launch a pod containing the four missiles. A fraction of a second after the launch, four missiles spawn from that pod, shooting away from the player in a cone shape, each one following a drunken path. A bit after that, the four missiles start tracking, and fly to the target.
DEVS PLEASE CONSIDER USING HARRYS, CRIPPLED's & the Ugly Yellow Grenade PLEASE!!! /me runs around naked and drools on the floor. :)
PLEASE!
PLEASE!
Once again, I'm being too lazy (with finals approaching...) to actually texture this, and I'm in the process of revisiting the Apollo, but first...

Supposed to be a heavy/medium bomber. 'bout 1200 polys, methinks.
