psi-corp carrier and Civ transport

[l33tpenguin]

Is there any difference between the models for the psi-corp fighter carrier and the similar looking civilian hauler?

Not sure. Might have been a similar case to the Tethys vs Shadowcloak model.
In the show the psicorp carrier has black omega starfuries attached to the modules. Someone here did a conversion to imitate it. Forgot who it was.

The fighter carrier has slightly thicker cargo modules. Otherwise I don't think there is a lot of difference.

I did a conversion of the civilian freighter: http://www.mongoosepublishing.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=31810&highlight=psi+corps

In the show (and the Psi Corps RPG book) the ship we see carry fighters is a shuttle similar to the Shadowcloak.

The Fighter Carrier also has a couple of extra turrets dotted around the place, but basically the only differences between on and a Freighter is in the detailing. I'm just going to be using the two models interchangably - the Fighter Carrier is basically a Psi Corps Modified Freighter after all.

Where are the turrets, I can't see them on the picture of the model?

On the Fighter Carrier: The center support between the two booms has two turrets (one forward facing and one rear facing), and the main crew compartment has two turrets (one above and one below).
As far as I can see, the Freighter is turret-free, but does have a radar dish under the main crew compartment.

I can see them now. Thanks.
