A sort of an update:

Full view, with the added panels and the logo and ship name:


View of the work I started on the "engines":

Looks great!

So, did you model that shuttle docking arm (thingy) yet?

No...

[Levyathan]

The pretty colors are back. Goood.

[Nico]

I hope you won't stick to procedurals?

[Styxx]

Probably not, but I want to finish the modeling part first. Also, I'm not that good at textures (yet) so I want to leave it for later.

The "textures" already look pretty good here. The colors work especially well..gives it a clean, refined, almost Articly pure look.

*sits in stunned silence*

uh...wow... That's a l33t little boat you got there.  

I see a symbol, and I see "Dignity"... but I can't quite read what's below that though.  Can we get a closeup of the insignia?

Can't wait for the final product.  And I agree with Ali there:  the brushed metal color works just fine even without texturing.

Hey, while we're at it, how about a better shot of the midsection?  Like a nose-on view, and maybe a shot of the underside, and a lower-rear one?

It's just numbers.  At first I tried to decipher it, got "SD 1 Earth Assets" (but it was numbers), but I think the plate has gotten changed since.

Ok, little update here. I wish I could work faster on it, but my time lately has been a lot more limited than I'd want:





Main changes are the adjustment of the rear section of the main manipulator array (the big thing with the hexagonal textures) and the work on the section under the missile launchers, where magazine and faber units are located (yes, this means that the launchers are not replicated on the underside).

And I'll post some pics of the underside when I have actually worked on it.

Daaaamn, man! And it's been what, a month now you've been working on it? Not ****ing bad.

[Bobboau]

the thing is like a planet sized double bareled shot gun

you know I think it might be cooler if one side was shorter than another, but it's probly too late for drastic changed like that

people always say that when they see a very detailled mesh, you know. then they see a mapped version and they go, "oh... god..."

[Styxx]

Yeah, that's true.

[Styxx]

Some more pics, a few updates.

[Ryx]

Excellent!

I plan to... I'm just not really good at it. But if when it's done you want to give it a shot, we can talk.
