Star Wars: Inside the Tie Fighter

I have decided to create another inside-out animation of an iconic Imperial starship, the Tie-Fighter from Star Wars, all in 3D.

. The Tie Fighter was first introduced in the 1977 movie, Star War A New Hope and was commonly used by the Empire to fight against the rebellion. There are several different variations of the Tie fighter including the Tie Bomber, TIE interceptor, Tie Defender, and the TIE Advanced X1 which was used by Darth Vader but in this episode, I just wanted to focus our attention on the standard Tie Fighter.

The backbone and workhorse of the Galactic Empire, the TIE fighter is identified with the Empire’s influence and power. TIE fighters are manufactured in massive numbers and are assigned to a pilot as an expendable asset, much like the pilots themselves. TIE fighters are considered tools to the Empire’s need, and they were designed to be as efficient as possible for the job they do.

The standard TIE/LN model contains no deflector shields, hyperdrive, or life support system. For this reason, they have a much lower range of operation compared to other galactic space fighters, and often need to be ferried into battle by other vessels, such as the menacing Imperial Star Destroyers, Gozanti class cruisers, or the Quasar Fire class carrier.
