Sidewinder-class is a small, 2-man (a pilot and a gunner) ship designed as an escort for larger and less maneuverable ships. Being only 29 meters long, it lacks any kind of infrastructure to support prolonged voyages on it’s own and is very dependent on it’s mothership for resupply and repairs, however the amount of weapons and countermeasures it can deploy makes this ship a very valuable asset on the battlefield.
Design of this this ship is heavily inspired by the show “The Expanse” however it is 100% my own. It has several weapons and modules (see annotations 1-5) that can be mixed and matched. Decals are added via separate geometry and textures so you can easily edit them. The model is fully rigged in Blender. Each module has it’s own rig. Additional files include textures, .blend file with rigged ship and it’s modules and .blend file with the ship with some modules attached and animated so you can use it as an example.
