Asset Overview

This model is of a little-known ship from Empire Strikes Back, a tiny distant TIE shuttle that looks like a bomber with inverted wings, which Captain Needa uses to apologize to Vader in person. This model is mostly based on Jason Eaton's rendition of the ship in the 'TIE Fighter Owner's Manual,' but with some personal tweaks such as new engines and a thin viewport into the passenger compartment. A larger transport TIE, the TIE Boarding Craft can be seen in Rogue One and Andor, this guy's not the most spacious! Quite a bit more detailed than my TIE fighter. 4 sets of textures- one for the wings, for the body, for the interior, and for the pilot. The interior and TIE pilot textures are the same as the ones in my regular TIE fighter model. If Sketchfab supported UDIMs, everything could be in 1 material using multiple UV tiles, but for now, it's 5 separate materials (one more to be able to dial in the glass transparency, even though it uses the body textures.) Hope to see more of this ship officially someday!
