Mmm, spiffed up x-wing :yes: (gotta love blue textures!)

take that text blur off though - it doesn't really help. I think it'd look better without. :)

This one is nice - kinda like a B-Wing and yet quite different. Sweet :D

I like the Bomber best... BTW: what's the desired effect on that text?

But then, that Shivan fighter is sweet, I can't decide :D

trying to get that Setekh-ified text effect that the Steak uses on his model portaits, on the terran ones anyhow.  The Kali was supposed to be a test of text gradients.

EDIT: a bit of trivia- the Atlas was originally conceived as a Legos model.  Ironically, all the pieces of the original Atlas model came from a B-Wing set.  Model was originally called the Raptor.

You mean that semi-blurred glowish effect? Try this: make a new semi-transparent layer with glowing, blurred text and put it over the original text... I don't know if that'd produce something you like...

Well for this I took the text - duplicated it (and colored it) into a new layer then distorted it so it would kind of go around the original text. Then I just made it semi-transparent with opacity measure things... Something akin to that should produce something like what I did. Although a cheap rip off of the classic "Steak Effect" ;)

BTW: I know there are better ways of doing this but they don't come to mind at the moment...

Looking good! Blur on the models is fine since they're WIP but the text really shouldn't need it at all...

All of the models are nice; the texturing on the first one looks quite good too. The blur makes it a bit hard to see though. ;)
