TIE Bomber Module (Various Scene Renders)
This is my exploration of the idea that the second hull of the "TIE bomber" could be a socket for various mission-specific models, to expand the breadth of roles the TIE bomber can take on. I designed and modeled 8 different options, and created multiple scenes to show off the most visually interesting module options, and their applications.
All renders are my own.
The TIE bomber mesh is my own. It is not an exact replica of the original ILM miniature, as I created my version with additional detail that wasn't present on the somewhat bare-bones original miniature. I also subtly updated some proportions to match other TIE fighter variants a bit more harmoniously.
I explore the module concept in detail in my YouTube video here:
