Thrusters definitley need far more detail on them, and yu definitley need way less polygons on that thing.
actualy, mabye not.

does anyone know what i can use to lessen the poly count without royally screwing up the model? because if i took off les polies it would look less hi-poly-ish.

That's approx 800 polies, I'll post a dxf later so you can take a look at the model itself :)

Damn! FTP is being a real pain, it'll display stuff in image links, but whenever I do a direct link, it says the thing doesn't exist.....:wtf:

Testing something..

That's just wierd... It'll load jpg's and mp3's, but not .dxf's or .ogg files :wtf:

I'll try zipping it, one sec....

Hmm

Take another looks at the cbanim. The thrusters consist of two cylindrical segments each, one of which connects to the main body, the other contains the actual thruster tip.

actualy, mabye not.

Yeah, I as working from the picture posted earlier alone, and did the base section wrong, but it's really more a demo of how to reduce the number of polies in each section. It basically means using subobjects that intersects each other very slightly, rather than trying to weld everything together into one object, which I think is what is causing Cobras high polycount :)

OK, here's a near-final model. some of the sections might need to be resized or redone, depending on the feedback. The polycount is 4552 with the thrusters on the bottom, and 3814 without.

Could use a lot of optimization. With 4552 polygons, you should be able to have greebles up the wazoo. I see a start on that model, but not very much.

Yeah, it's looking good, but should eb optimised, curved surfaces look ot have an unnecesary amount of polygons...

Here's the DXF if anyone wants to optimize it. I had to use a different hosting service since Fileh seems to be having server troubles.
