Republic Dagger Fighter

They called it the dagger fighter because of its dagger like shape, used mainly for infiltration and what not because of its stealth field generator.

The single yellow stripe signifying this as Yellow Leader.

It's hard to say without more pictures, but it looks very roughly built. What you call a 'sleek dagger-like shape' isn't all that sharp and pointed, but I like the wing connections on the sides. Could use some more work.

It can use some very good work but the basic design is there. Remove wedges that make it pointy and remove the yellow stripe. It just doesn't look good.

The yellow stripe means the pilot is yellow leader.

Yea, but it just doesn't look right. You could better add it on the wings or something.

I agree with DP, the fighter looks great, but that yellow stripe is disturbing. Add something yellow to each wing and remove that one, then it'll be great.

Nice! The stripe looks okay, but I would experiment with putting the stripe in a different spot on the fighter. The wings look good, and you got the dagger-type design down okay.
