Hi creative people!. My name´s marcos, from Argentina... i just register myself a few moments ago... looks like this proyect it´s doing GREAT (i´m specially surprised about the HUDGE feedback you have) and i know that this´ll be a great game someday...

By the way... did you consider use a Model from a modified BLACK BIRD as a starting Skyranger? I´m writing a fanfiction about X-COM and i made some research about this idea... The SR-71 BLACK BIRD it´s a hudge plane with a top speed of mach 5, prety much alike te original Skyranger and it CAN be modified in real life... so, what do you think?

This is the aircraft...


i think it´s a pretty good idea...

As allways, sorry about my lousy english...

Hello, glad to have you with us! Thank you for your input concerning Project Xenocide, and we'd be pleased to have you join!

However, I'm pretty sure the artwork for this has already been drawn up. I wouldn't know for sure, seeing as I'm working in the CTD, but I'd imagine at this stage. . .

edit: Just so you know, I think the Blackbird looks a lot sleeker than our actual model.

Hi MarKOD, where are you from exactly? Concepts stage is finished by now, so the short anwear is no, until we have a playable version to see if the style of the current craft fits.

Greetings

Mach 5 is nowhere near 760 miles per hour, that's more like Mach 1

also, we need the movable engines for VTOL abilites as well, but i guess it could theoretically work

[Neo MarKOD]

Well, first, thank you for replying this post...
responding to RedKnigt: im from Buenos Aires... San Martin... i allready sent you a e-mail with some ideas...
I allready saw the model that you have for the Skyranger... it´s looks like the Black Bird, but i´m not convinced with the general SHAPE of the aircraft... too square...
anyway, i´ll post a cople of draws that i have SOMEWERE in my room. those doodles used to be for my fanfiction, but i guess you can find them usefull...

again, sorry about my english...

[Neo MarKOD]

Thanks Azrael, i´ll check it later...
By the way, here you got one of the first draws for the PLASMA cannon i made... it´s kind of basic but you ´ll get the idea...

Plasma Cannon PCCT A1

OPS! Sorry, it´s in spanish...

I really like that craft. If someone want's to make it (and modefy it a little to give to VTOL capacity), it would rule.

[Neo MarKOD]

i'll see if i can draw a couple of concept doodles based on the blackbird...

your plasma rifle looks great, but unfortunately it does not really look alien. For Xenocide, it was decided to give alien weapons an "organic" look. Your concept could work for the laser rifle, I think...
