Use the friggin IMG tags. And get some perspective shots (ie non-axis parallel).

I voted sucks, but not because it sucks. It just looks half done to me. Also, some of your angles just look too extreme, too stretched. Its kind of hard to explain. It's like the mesh is going in too many directions at once.

Yea, this thing could use a lot more polygons. Looks like a LOD3, or perhaps a LOD2 right now

It is the LOD1! Anyway I put a couple of angle pics up on that same page. BTW I did not first design this fighter. I got it from Uknown Target, so I have no idea who made it. Alls I did to it was fix it up, well I redid (make a new one) it cuz just fixing the thing would take an eternity. The orginal had alot of bad geomatry and many faces and vertices that didn't have to be on it. The guy who made it had only added new meshes and didn't get rid of the extra stuff I just listed.

And Stunaep things don't have to have all the polygon it can handle. This thing has about 650. So I'm not going to add more!

It's a little pointy, also it looks a little too...atmospheric for a star fighter(I know the Perseus).

Soften the edges.
Decrease the forward projection of the "intakes" as it ruins the lines of the ship as a whole.

So UT what do you think of the last guy's reply? Should I do that?

It looks like a 20th century jet fighter. Something like F14 TomCat

It looks like 5 minutes with extrusion. Not bad, but not worth converting and POF editing yet.
