TIE Fighter Study

Finished study of the Imperial Navy TIE Fighter. I wanted to achieve a level of detail that I had not seen before; adding volume around the cockpit for where the internals of the ship would have to fit, give the wing hub a clearer sense of function. As the Star Wars Sketchbook said: "The Empire has more advanced forms of propulsion" but those engines and reactor will still take up space.
