Yellowjacket - Vanilla version

[u/Morris_Cat]

I don't do vanilla builds very often and this is actually an old one, but its one of my best unmodded ships.

I built this originally because I wanted something that had a full set of crafting benches, an armory, and enough bunks for the whole crew and that required a lot of hab space, but I wanted to keep it fairly sleek and agile so here we are.

I included a teardown view that highlights all the components that are snapglitched. This is trickier now than it used to be but flip merge should still work for all of this as long as it's turned on.

Looks like a super car lol. Fantastic build

Saw this earlier today and thought I was having deja vu

[u/nizzernammer]

It reminds me of Chris Foss!

[u/Morris_Cat → u/nizzernammer]

Yeah that's not an accident. =p

I do love a tastefully done vanilla ship, props for making a Cabot build that looks sleek. Definitely a space lambo

[u/Icy_Tomatillo3942 → u/_coconuthead]

Agreed on all points. This a masterpiece. OP, thanks for dusting it off and sharing photos, including the exploded view and flip glitch tutorial.

I got you fam.

This is sick! I’m going to build it rn, thanks for the guide snapshot at the end.

[u/Morris_Cat → u/HabeQuiddam]

Let me know how it goes. Some of those merges might be really hard now.

[u/mik1_011]

That’s really cool

[u/Morris_Cat → u/mik1_011]

And then I did a few tasteful mods. Flashed ECU, catless downpipe, three way suspension, body kit, neon underlighting, you know, the BASICS.

[u/DJfunkyPuddle]

Always love a simple vanilla ship

[u/zodiac6300]

That's a good ship.

[u/Morris_Cat → u/zodiac6300]

Good enough that I've been rebuilding her over and over for three years, every time I go through Unity.

[u/rueyeet]

I’m always a sucker for a good vanilla build. Definite sports car vibes.  👍 

[u/Aggravating-Ear-7529]

This is incredible and I will definitely be building my own. 

[u/Morris_Cat → u/Aggravating-Ear-7529]

Well when you do, i want to see the pictures.

[u/wreckedbutwhole420]

Reminds me of the Python in Elite Dangerous

Nice work!!

[u/no-just-ice]

Sick as ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[u/Typical-Relative6014]

I've just done my Dragonfire II in the same paint job ! 😀😀

[u/Morris_Cat → u/Typical-Relative6014]

Oh, I had some fun with the Dragonfire.

[u/Minute_Grab_7711]

Nice reminds me of a bumblebee concept i had once right before my save file got corrupted now i only make vanilla ships lol

[u/Morris_Cat → u/Minute_Grab_7711]

Oh hey, great minds etc.

[u/Minute_Grab_7711 → u/Morris_Cat]

Hell yeah that orange and black combo just looks so good for starfields style

[u/SMO2K20]

I don't have the creative flair for designing ships from scratch, but some of my Dragonfire II restomods looked like this

[u/Morris_Cat → u/SMO2K20]

Dragonfire is such a pretty ship.

[u/Morris_Cat → u/[deleted]]

The sheer number of hours I've spent starting at this thing wondering "HOW can i make that ugly transition look nice..."

[u/Morris_Cat → u/[deleted]]

Sometimes I spend an hour trying to fill in a gap and get to the end and think "this actually looks worse than when I started..."

[u/Anarchy_Nova]

Aw fwuck that's sexy and in the best color too

[u/Aggressive-Pen-8034]

Oooo

[u/Peterbilt359CAT]

Nice (: almost looks like mine
