haha the ship design is a bit similar to the hades i guess, and i guess the ship isnt really that detailed, the engine nozzels are , and note that i designed this a while ago actually, but i was going through the models i had, and thought you guys might like this one. so i didnt design engines in mind of the glowing that will over them up most of the time lol

theres the ship in 3d, .3ds format, if anyone would like to view it, it looks better in 3d lol

looking at the model, the engines are pretty detailed, I say reduce the detail over there by half, add more detail to the hull and bring the ship to the 30k-40k polys and you have a fine looking hades style cruiser(just get rid of the sword thing on the front )

[spyderrock48]

but i like the sword like front! , i think it makes it look aggressive.  and 40k polys seems a might bit high. but i can add detail if detail must be added!

Leave the blade, it makes this ship unique!

anyone else think of the starships from the Starship Troopers first movie while looking at this?

Beyond the four engines and the conning tower and the fact it's shaped like a big dong, there's not much similar. Your overall hull is more vertical, compared to the flat, broader shape of the STT. Lots of ships designs share a similar overall aesthetic. The real defining aspect of your ship is the swordfish bow (as others have already said).

And btw the above comment is not a low-blow, about 80% of the ships I draw look like dongs too

I've been meaning to ask a LOT of people this. How does one put their own drawing on their computers? Do they just get the old pen and paper and then use a scanner? Or is there some cool elaborate way I have yet to discover?

Scan it in.
Or take a photo with a digital camera and import it.
Or draw it directly onto the computer using either a waccom tablet or a cintiq.
