Why can't I model that fast? oh, wait, thats why...

I think those are the darker gray stubs on the rear image spartan.  That's what I was referring to being a bit long.

Also Topgun, I'm guessing he's got a little more experience than you.

They are, and you're right, they will be shortened.

TopGun - It's just a matter of practice dude - a few months of use in one program and you inevitably improve. A few years and you inevitably get fast.  And speed is largely irrelevant, given the overall speed most FS mods move at.

Good model, BW. As always.

A little bit off topic, but what's the status of your gunship?

I'm not certain, but I think he wanted to have the new turret code before he messed with it, since it has some odd turret angles that don't work currently.  Animated at least.

Yea, a bit...

UVed but Unturreted and awaiting texturing.

The panels look a lot better now.  I think it looks great, although a couple of things.  I'm curious what the poly count is probably going to finish as, because if there's room for a little more detail, I think seeing it used on the ball would be great, like the ingress/egress hatch for instance.  It has some rather large portions of detail on the models that I'd love to see in the mesh as opposed to just the texture.  But if the count is already getting too high don't worry about it.  The other thing, the ion drive exhausts seem a tad long.  Keep up the good work.

Send me some pics with exactly what you want and I'll see what I can do.
