Done in 5 days, so, the quality is not so good I think. But that's the best I can do. I'm just a beginner. Say, HLP Staff, is there a beginner's section?

I like. Has a B5-ish look about it. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
And your not late. End of January if i remember correctly. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Nice. But why does it have green turrets?

sw33t.

Wow dude, I really like that! Very nice... is that a model entry or a contest entry? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) We'll have to ask Shrike to be sure, I suppose... (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

's a model entry, silly. Can't you tell by the (currently unlinked) multiple views? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)
BTW, I'd suggest skinning the rest of the model and redoing that render..... it really drags it down having those primary green and untextured turrets.

looks sorta like an awp-45, i wonder why the top 3 images arn't registering...

There's a space in them and UBB code isn't smart enough to do a URLEncode on the string between URL tags. They need to be replaced with a '%20' to work properly.

I don't know what to texture the turrets with so I gave them each a colour with specular and glossiness values which I played around with.

AWP?! You mean the one from Counterstrike? I don't see the resemblance...

It is for the Model Contest. Got the three views working.
Good to know that you liked it. Lots of comments too.

Some shade of grey maybe. The green colour makes it look someho like a toy.
Or, as a suggestion for a texture:

What about if I can play around with the texture settings until it becomes metallic?
-
Why not? Let's see how that looks.

Anything! Hell, use the same texture as the body. Just give it something.

Hey, Setekh! Can I have my ship in my name which usually appears to my left? You know...like the rest...?
-
The model contest is end of feb so you cannot be late.

Wish I could dude, but you'll notice that the rest are... well, all staffers. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif) Maybe some time later, dude. But it's a great ship, that's for sure! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
-
Oh I see. Okay then. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)
I need to retexture certain parts of the ship. Especially the engines and beam cannons.
-
Here's another render. This time, the turrets are textured.
Presenting the Excellence and the Glorious!
