You can set GIMP to work with larger image files somewhere on the settings, it will not bug you again about size if you pump the max value a little bit.

Yeah I found it already and bumped it to 650 MB. Now all that's left is to make a good texture. I'm not that good at this.

[DahBlount]

Can I get some feedback on my texture? I know I'm being a little bit demanding but if you guys have something to say then say it or you'll have to deal with blue glowy stripes all along the hull and stuff.

I find there to be a lack of racing stripes in FS2.

Your basic texture looks alright to me. When making an FS2 Terran ship, I'd advise keeping the color scheme somewhat conservative; nothing really flashy. It's your model, and other people might have different opinions, but this is my 2 cents.

[BritishShivans]

I really have no idea for texture suggestions, tbh. Given it's shared "wings" with the Hecate though, I'd recommend giving it a similar texture - the metallic bronze-green and such.

[DahBlount]

Something more like this?

Looks good so far in regards to color, though the texture is a bit...basic? I imagine you only just started on it.

[fightermedic]

i liked it more when it was white and blue, a lot

[BritishShivans]

I don't remember a blue texture, just a grey thingy. 

EDIT: Oh, the blue stripes.

[The Dagger]

I agree with fightermedic, your first grey and blue texture was so much better colorwise.

[DahBlount]

Well it's good thing I always keep spare texture files until things are finalized. I can continue edit the white and blue texture.

The original colors fit the model better. But you couldn't really pass it off as a GTD unless you had an entire fleet to go with it since the original color/texture didn't fit with any existing FS2 Terran design.
The new colors does help with that, but you probably have to work on paneling and maybe remove of those white stripes. (An idea would simply be to paint "tiles", as in, tilemaps, via a custom brush over areas to get the paneling and details while making it fit nicely with canon/established designs)

[DahBlount]

Yeah. TBH after playing BP:WiH it looks more like what the UEF would do if they got their hands on stolen beam cannon and flak gun tech from the GTVA.

While it may not seem wise, I could just change the designation seeing as how it is going straight into my mod.

[DahBlount]

Okay, so this might seem a bit strange but as I was driving today, I had this great inspiration. I'm going to be changing somethings. Namely this model will forever be known as the old, crappy version of the Nuadha.

[Droid803]

Sure, finishing models is overrated anyway.

[DahBlount]

Well it's not that I'm not finishing it. It will most likely be repurposed.

Tbh I couldn't tell if that was sarcasm or not.

[DahBlount]

Bump to let everyone know my best redesign is on the p3d.

[Droid803]

Nice! It looks considerably more like a capital ship and less like a Fin Funnel.

[DahBlount]

Thanks! I've still got quite a bit to add but I believe it's coming along well now.

TBH she lost all of her orginality . While I liked the idea of smoothed Agressor-class destroyer, now she looks pretty generic for a GTVA destroyer.
