just copy/paste, sorry, maybe someone could upload em somewhere and edit the post?
they're just the engines but I think that it should give already a good idea of what I'm doing....and what I'm doing is not simply adding greeblings or minor changes but also mmmm rethinking the whole design, which is IMHO the only way to do that ship.
I'm not adding a 4th engine or a second handle or something like that. Sizes and proportions of the various elements will remain the same. Of course it'll be needed to rethink the turrett positions.
We could say that instead of adding some k of polys to a low poly model I'm remaking it as I think :v: modellers would have done it if they had actual poly limits.
Anyway, I'd like to hear your opinion

I uploaded them to my uni account (since they're so damn cool), you can edit your first post if you'd like.

So here goes:








I'd call that an excellent start :yes:

holy mother of ****! you've actualy managed to make the colosus look good!

try to keep the poly count below 30,000. although a lot of that ubbergreebleing youve got could probly make use of the detail box code (finaly).

Looks brilliant, but I share Bobb's concerns over Poly count. How many is it so far?

ah sweetness!
But you might want to greeble after you have the rest of the ship made so you can monitor the polycount.
