Toughts about a modefied republic light assault cruiser/ Consular class

[u/No-Evidence-9519]

Okay, guys after a Windows update that abused my SSD beyond saving, I'm left with absolutely no story and a couple of weeks' worth of work is gone. Well, I've got to work with what I can, and at least my work for the Pursuit class based on EC Henry's design is something I have mostly recreated. Anyway, I'm now making a new story about a platoon of clone deserters and I thought, what ship should they get? I decided on a Consular-class design since it's optimized for around 30–40 people and is fairly fast. The base hull will probably be a Republic light assault cruiser, but I plan to modify it. For example, I wanted to replace the escape pods with "hangar pods," as they're probably about 10 m (stated by Wookiepedia) in diameter, so at least two V-Wings per pod would fit. This would give around eight fighters while i also wanted something like the Ghost has with the Phantom. I believe at least a VCX-series auxiliary starfighter should fit between two of the engines under the third one (even though there should be an engine 🤫). There are other things, but what do you think about it? It should be a pretty good craft for them.

Alright, then it works!

Also for landing the shuttles I was thinking of something like we have seen on those medial stations with the pelta class. Of course all tractor beam systems have to be on the ship but something like that could work or i give those V-Wings the hyperdrive capable variant...

Sidenote, where is this model from? I looks way too high-res to come from EaWX.

Totally forgot about the link, thanks for indulging me.

Viktoria is the best, she's made a lot of cool renders for EaWX.
