I don't like it as much as the others from these shots. Perhaps it's just the odd angles of the pics, but the shape looks odd. Can you post some side/top/front views?

Your ship names are all so... interesting. ;)

I think that's the name of his mod project thingy actually... :) (you're referring to Throttle Lust, yah?)

Those new pics confirmed what I thought - The fuselage doesn't join to the engine block very well. The funny angle underneath, and the sort of hunch-backed bit on top spoil the lines of the ship IMO. It looks.... (searches for the words)... erm, awkward to me. It looks like it wouldn't fly very well. Uhh... I don't really know what to suggest tbh - it just doesn't look right. Sorry :(


Heh, I feel really bad saying this, as I love most (practically all) of the stuff you've done, and this is such a cool idea (the racing thing) that I hate to say anything that might make you less confident in it... :D

I have pics I'd post regarding that name, but I'd get banned for sure :nervous:

I like the ship btw.

It's very blocky. And yeah, I guess it is supposed to be slower, whatever, but it just feels kinda unrefined to me.

And what are you doing modding? Go back to writing the new movie! *whips* ;)

Writer's block, can't force creativity ;)

Lol, anyway, thanks for the comments all :) I've been told that I should add more detail, what do you think? And what sorta detail?

I like the direction your going in but:
A. Make the maps fit.
B. Add some color.
