TIE Reaper Released!
Time for me to tie up some loose ends!
By far my oldest WIP to be completed! By now the Exterior has found its way into several PC game mods (e.g. for Freelancer) but finally here is the real thing!
The TIE Reaper is a heavy Assault Fighter developed around 12 ABY. Heavily armed and with strong shields it’s fit to both dish out large amounts of damage while being able to shrug off a lot of damage punishment and accomplish its goals even under heavy fire.

GT-5000 Series Released!
Taken my sweet time with this one - for good reasons!
Not just one new ships but three in a row!
The GT-Series is ShiCon Dynamics’ entry into the medium transport class, a new line of state-of-the-art combat transports bridging the gap between yachts and corvettes. With about 60 meters in length this combat vehicle adapts the features, the speed and and combatability of the successful BRX-Yacht series while allowing for much larger space and cargo capacities.
The GT-5000 Transport comes in 3 variations:
- The GT-5000 Stock version
- The GTS Nighthawk, very fast stealth ship
- The GTX Corsair, designed on offensive combat
Each variant has its individual models, including Exterior and Cockpit. For the stock GT-5000 this goes as far as having the entire ship interior and letting you choose, where you want to be sitting.

SUPER STAR DESTROYER Released!
Seriously now?!
HELLZ YEAH!
After 5 years in the making - awaited for over 10 years, it is finally done: The biggest and baddest capital ship ever XWA-UPed! Almost 15.000 faces, and pretty much any other virtual limit in XWA has been ruthlessly maxed out - or simply ignored - for this baby. Model and textures were originally made by talented 3d artist Enterprise E and have undergone heavy revisions and expansions by Dragon and myself. At that point, I'd like to officially welcome Dragon as the XWA Upgrade's newest team member! Well done, mate!

Only thing left to say:
* * * HAPPY NEW YEAR ! * * *
New OPTs by DTM
No newspost without him. DTM has recently released more of his masterful work: The great Astro-class Sub-Cruiser and the enormous Tycon class Imperial Battlestation.
Head over to MTD Industries and get your fix of DTM goodness!

Toscan Fighter v2 Released!
Five years in the making and here we finally go!
The Toscan Fighter had been my initiation work for the XWA Upgrade Project, but I never was truly happy about it with the cockpit being out of scale and the textures were somewhat messy seen with my today's eyes, not to mention the ship lacked an exterior and cockpit version. The project deserved better and here it is at long last.

Community Update
Been somewhat quiet over the past month but I can assure you, things are cooking under the surface. Right now there is a storm of new life raging through both the XWA upgrade Project and this place as well.
You heard right: The XWAUP is not dead! DTM has released his amazing recreation of the Cargo Facility 1 and Marco Antonio followed suite with his updated Pursuer Enforcement Ship. The project is getting back up to pace.
Visit the XWAUP Homepage for details!
Regarding my XWAUP Works there are indeed quite some updates as well:
- The Super Star Destroyer is 'almost' done, too, only a few more bits and pieces that need work done, so I am confident that this long-term project will also face completion very soon.
- The Toscan Fighter v2 finally got some long needed progress. While the exterior's almost complete, I have also intensified work on the Cockpit.
- The Space Colony 1 returned from the dead as I rediscovered the model I thought lost on an old HDD - along with some more lost files that used to be dear to me.
See the Workbench for the recent updates!
DTM's revisions
Not to forget to mention: DTM has also been revising two legendary but by now slightly dusty opts, the Mon Remonda-Class Calamari Cruiser originally by JM, made famous by the classic X-Wing Novels. The second is the no less legendary Vengeance-class Battlecruiser by MJT, starring in the original Jedi Knight video game. Some excellent revisions those are! Head over to MTD Industries and get yours now!
Various on-site updates
I have greatly updated the Download Page to make downloading easier. While the existing section pages remain, there are now also direct links to every single ship profile as well as a list of direct download links to redue the effort required for downloading.That's it for now. I plan to get some more live into this place again in the future.

BIG New Release!
Whee, first news post for this year but hell, it's worth it!
Here it is at long last! The Traquia is the biggest and baddest SoB that the ESS navy has to offer. With almost 14km length it is the undisputed champion across the ESS and rival territory. Considering crossovers I could imagine it well taking on Executor-class dreadnoughts. But enough gloating. It took me 6 years to finish this thing so I may be a little happy as well. :)

That's about it for now. I've archived the 2010 news but hope to stay active somehow and come up with new stuff soon.
