I rounded out the upper shell a bit more.  Just need to take care of the lower shell.  I'll probably add a few more greebles and such before working on UV layouts and normal mapping.  Btw, is there a set number of polies for Transports?  I'm just about to cross 7,000.

Deuternomy 22:11 explained:

Well there are many different speculations going on about this law about not mixing fibers and at least one explanation claims that it was a symbolic gesture designed to keep a pure sense of culture, people, and religion.  Seperation of crop  in the vinyard, mentioned in Dt. 22:9 and 22:10 seem to reaffirm this idea, though there may be other reasons as well.

And now, an excerpt from the Prayer of Mordecai, the Book of Esther Chapter C (New American Bible Official Catholic version).

Est C:5  You know all things.  You know, O Lord, that it was not out of insolence or pride or desire for fame that I acted thus in not bowing down to the proud Haman.  6  Gladly would I have kissed the soles of his feet for the salvation of Israel.  7  But I acted as I did so as not to place the honor of man above that of God.  I will not bow down to anyone but you, my Lord.  It is not out of pride that I am acting thus.

well for something that has almost no flat surfaces I don't think you can do a whole lot better and still achieve a good looking model.  The top looks really nice by the way, and the cargo modules are really starting to look like a Gallofree.  You did a great job on this thing.

There are still a few things I'm going to add.  A lot of smaller details are not attached from the main mesh since that would just eat up polygons.  There are a few greebles I want to put in, maybe add fuel pods in the cargo hold since I nearly forgot about those.  I might redo the sides where the main shell connects to the lower shells, though honestly, I'm not sure how big a deal that is.  I'm really more interested in getting into normal map generation for this bad boy.

That looks decent enough. I say stop making the mesh and start the texturing process.

Excellent, the mesh is artfully done with proper proportions and attention to detail. That core shipset is getting awfully small nowadays...

Well we still have a lot of work to do getting these in game.  Luckily, PCS2 is finally stabilizing, so if you've been waiting for it to work on your exporting, now's the time to give it a shot.

Nah, it's been freespace crapping out on me when it tries to load the model ingame; I've never had too many issues with PCS2.

A lot of freespace crapping out was because PCS2 had some bugs.  If you used it before I'd rerun everything now.

I'm impressed with this, the GR-75 is certainly not one of my first choices for modelling, especially with the mega-greebling, but this is coming along very nicely.
