Cobra your x wing model surprised me. It has a long way to go...but it is a definite improvement.
Listen to the guys who are trying to help you, and to hell with the rest. a serious try goes places here. Listening to the people who KNOW what to do goes a lot further. Listen to what they tell you. k? and don't listen to the people who just want a laugh. They probably get stuffed in lockers anyway;)
Now to give you a laugh...i will show you my first model and texture job.
I actually like the fuselage texture on the front half. other than that though......in the face of these guys......no way. The wings....yuck....and as for the texture on the back half...my grandmother would say "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?????"
the thing is, it's all about shapes, kind of like drawing is all about drawing a line. don't draw the picture, just draw the line. with modelling, don't model the whole ship..just model a shape at a time.
one last thing...pec if you think that jumping on the bandwagon to slam cobra's lack of inate talent in the use of a modelling program is going to earn you any friends you are wrong. some guys already brought that act here, you just look like a second rate show. For what it's worth i told cobra to dump you off of his project, the only reason he kept you on was out of loyalty to what he THOUGHT was a friend. I hope you feel like the big man on campus knowing that bit of info. And by the way, that big yellow ball in the sky is the shut the **** up lamp...and it's lit. get the picture?
