I Typhoned StratComm's Hedetet, putting capital03-01a on the main body and replacing the purplish parts on the sides with the black/blue lights textures. It was nice, although I won't touch any of the other textures.

I think he means this:

There are tortoises in the desert, my friend. ;)

I agree tha #4 (from the left) is the way to go.

As for the mesh design itself, I think it simply rocks. If you do a Heavy Cruiser (corvette) version, I would suggest a healthy number of rotating, barreled turrets. And well designed/textured ones as well. I think we, as a community, are sorely lacking in that department. In fact, I dare say that we rely way too much on the "beam-fest" ideology.

Ok, in responce to posts in other threads, I began to experiment with 'smoothing' this ship.

Nothing working yet.

Anyone got any tips/tricks/pointers for me?
