| yea i dont think most people understand how big the 302s are and it shows in a lot of the fan work done. the scaling almost always seems off when you know the 302 dimension |

I think as far as contemporary scifi goes, the 302 is one of the most realistic fighters ever seen on TV. It has to have three full sets of engines, including a rocket booster, AND all the fuel to get to orbit and back at least once per mission... It NEEDS to be big!(Just compare it to the Eta-2 Actis interceptor from Star Wars to see something unrealistic...) But i love the scaling on your render there. Looking really good. Bar. | |

| I think the F302 gets scaled down so much because its "just a fighter", but if u think what goes into it and how big modern airforce jets are it makes sense for them to be so big. Tis a nice model though. Also nicework on the Severus Tadz. |

| That is big... I make the original Prometheus about 190 metres long give or take. But that's only based on visual evidence of the 302s leaving the bays...  |
