UPDATED June 05, 2015Ok! I'm back on this sucker. I've working on it in my office spare time and determined to finish! Progress this week is below in p3d!
UPDATED July 28, 2013A few more details on the front of the engine hull, now started detailing the connector.
UPDATED July 27, 2013I decided to stop ****ing around and finish this project. I'm getting much closer. This is taking a long time, but it'll get done soon. Finished the front of the engine hull modelling.
UPDATED August 29, 2012Still slowly getting in geo tweaks when I can. Basically my final geo workflow is as follows; I've downloaded all the reference I can possibly find, and I'm going through each image, combing through and making the final changes as I go. I've done a lot on the forward hull here, but also some in and around the connecting rod and the engine hull.
7702 polygons.
UPDATED again August 17, 2012UPDATED August 17, 2012So I lied... I'm still making revisions to the geometry, based on new reference I hadn't seen before. (Found on this site, weird.)
I've completely reworked where the spine meets the forward hull. Made changes to the bottom area of the forward hull. Random tweaks here and there. I'm still going to do a few more hours of work on it before I'm completely satisfied.
I've also encoded into a better codec, so the video is much clearer.

UPDATED flat texturesUPDATED January 09, 2012 (Modelling 99% complete, faux textures applied for effect.)
I'm so sorry guys, since my last update life has been a hurricane. True Crime was cancelled by Activision, then I went over to a small company and shipped 2 small titles, Bass Shop Pro The Hunt: Trophy Showdown, and The Strike: Tournament Edition as the Lead Character Artist. Now I'm back with United Front Games finishing the True Crime project under a different banner with Square publishing. I've been super busy but decided to attempt to finish this thing off in the next few months. Go ahead and critique, I'll take notes and possibly tweak some geo before I lay out my UVs for texturing.
