I always loved the Mon Cal cruisers!

I love them because they’re just so freaking ugly.

Mostly practical, though.

But still ugly.

My favorite ship in Star Wars is the B-wing. But I head cannon it to being a dragster-fast on the sprint, but shit for turning.

(Though on the blade wing, I would have just yeeted the hyperdrive and brought back hyperdrive rings, or like built the hyperdrive to be on its own isolated power system...)

The B-wing was so cool when I was a kid. Star Wars does asymmetrical ships so well.

They do ugly ships well.

Things with history. Y-wings, b-wings. The Nebbies. The falcon. (Yeah, i said it.)
