I haven't started gluing everything together yet, so I've still got lots of time to play with the textures. What do y'all think?
If it aint broke, break it!

I like it. Could be better, though. That rear stretching isn't too pretty...

Maybe you could try using Lithunwrap to generate the UV, even if you aren't going to make a single texture map for them

Thank you =) I'm undecided about the turret textures.. I'm pretty sure I want the rotating turrets on the top and bottom to stay the way they are, but I'm thinking that the beam and laser turrets on the sides of the ship might look better with a grey or black texture... I tried it both ways and couldn't decide which I liked better.

In the origional post there's backstory on how the ship got developed. It was origionally an NTF design, but they didn't have time to finish any before they got kicked out of Epsilon Peg. It was intended to be a smaller fusion of the Iceni, the Deimos, and the Aeolus. I like the Iceni's engine arrangement a lot better than most of the other terran caps, so I decided to see what I could do with it.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

That's absolutely fine. Get someone to help you learn the conversion process for 3DS->POF - your Neptune cruiser would be a great addition to the fleet.

Or what happens when you cross a Leviathon with the Iceni, a great model though!
