I do see the height difference, especially looking at the rear edge of the rear pane of glass.  But again, it's just another model so it's not the best reference.  And if I were Brand, I'd be flattered that those types of things are what people have to stretch for as criticisms :)

Well it's too late to fix it now...

And by too late I mean I don't feel like it cause I think it looks good as it is =P

wierdo :P

must be a perspective issue then...the last picture looks much nicer!

btw the CGI model they used in ANH is definately different from the real model they built. i personally like the CGI model better...it's symmetrical and the canopy is little bit lower.

I personally liked the old one better, just something about the proportions of it looked sleeker

I really like your models especially y-wing. This last one You should animate and send to Lucas  :D and I'm sure that he will employ You  ;) In my own opinion x-wing in few place has not very good proportion (something too wide wings, conopy should be something lower) but Its only my opinion and I know that it is so hard to make everything the same as in film because all blueprints which we may find in google have bigger mistakes.

Greetings  :)

Brandx0, shouldn't you have something in your signature by now? Or maybe a custom title, "It's proportionate!!"

I think 30 and 40 are a big difference for a lot of people. :wtf: Just saying.

I don't think that was directed to you specifically... It's just that seemingly every model is commented by someone that it "looks out of proportions", despite the repeated statements that the models are as correct as they can humanly be, and that any "errors" in proportions are due to perspective and field of view settings.

Brand's Star Destroyers for example have been called too wide, too long, too flat and too high I think. :p

Imperials don't get high!  They can take their glitbitter comments elsewhere!

 Yesterday I analysed some shots from ep4,5,6 and pictures from official star wars exhibition and it looks like there are some difference betwen those models so You right your model is ok  :) sorry. And when I say that I see big difference betwen 30 and 45 deg I don't mean that I have speciall skill but That I'm very carefully analysing all angles, widths, lenghs, heights and other thing and I'm really ratty with this. BTW. I was thinking that this kind of reply may be usefull...  If I hack You off, sorry.

It's like the arguments you get about the SW Universe on Space Battles sometimes, I think some people get so carried away with the technical side of things that they forget it's all make believe anyway.

For my part, if I can look at a ship and say..'Oh look, an X-Wing' without hesitation then the model works, I don't really care if the wing seperation is 0.56 Degrees out or whatever ;) Especially since multiple, subtly different models were used throughout the series, it's kind of hard to decide what is exactly canon anyway.

That said, there's nothing wrong with constructive criticism, and the technophiles have helped make Star Wars the rich, varied universe it is, without them, I'm sure the EU wouldn't be half as varied and interesting as it is.

The main reason why I mostly dropped out of this mod. :nervous: I'm glad nobody's taken issue with my weapons.

Nope I think most of them will probably find a home.  Some sooner than others.
