now i just need to UV map it, convert it, and get it in the game.

which would be just fine if i had any idea how to UV map or convert.

any helpful hints?

It's a lego A-wing! :)

Seriously though, good job. That thing was my favourite fighter in Star Wars.

I have two opinions:

1.)  Excellent work on the model.
2.)  I hate your 1337 skillz.

Just kidding about #2.

Great work, I can't wait to see the finished product.

Yup, he's already been added to our staff page.  Looks like he's found another calling besides just being a texture guru.
