Concept design for a live action film pitch of a modernized version of the iconic Vic Viper space fighter jet from KONAMI’s, “GRADIUS” video game series. The early Viper prototype is based on existing military technology, and gradually evolves into a multi role fighter capable of gravity based flight, atmospheric exit, and then orbital dynamics of space travel. Hence it’s the later advanced version that is given the V.I.C. designation for Variable Interstellar Configuration Viper. The project's aim is to create a modern functional design, carrying over the design cues of the previous generation VIC Vipers to retain iconic identifiability.
