You could try modeling in an exposed superstructure. Look at the neck of the Colossus and those textures for some ideas.

Smallish update. I redid the engines, so they're smoother. They're each separate subobjects, I hope to do some stuff with the subobject LODding so I can still use lower poly ones for if you're not right next to them.

Anyway, I have no ideas on what to do with the wing-like things. They're too plain for my tastes right now. They need something, but I have no idea what that is. Suggestions?

As soon as the wings are done, I'll map it and hand it off for texturing.

I like it.

Give us a front view (if you changed some of it).

Otherwise, me likes very much.

I haven't really touched the front at all, aside from some tiny fixes.

The engine block has some more detail inspired by the textures on the stock model.

Working on the legs. For the outside I'll probably go with the second pic. The first pic is just there because you can see in the inside of the leg.

The model is awesome! Mapping it will be a pain though... ;)

Slow to non-exsistant I'm afraid. UV mapping takes awhile and I haven't really touched it at all since the last up date.

If the masses don't mind, I can put together the model with the old texture maps.

It would probably be better to just release what you have and let someone like Galemp finish it off. Reducing the number of textures each ship uses is well worth doing :)

Good idea. It's best to give it to everyone and see what they'll do to it. ;)

File includes the LOD0 (just the LOD0, no debris, no damaged submodels) in 3ds and wings file formats.

Holy...

I can only pray that the poly count is manageable on my machine.

Well, I was sorta surprised at how "low" the added count was. So far the poly count has doubled (around 12k now), but that's not bad considering the... 63 cylinders that just got added. I'm trying to keep them low sided, the small ones are 5, and larger are 6, and largest 8. The end goal is around 15k.
