there are a few flaws with this texture unfortunately
as I recall, the USS Lexington was destroyed back in TOS
thus it would make this the 1709-A
another flaw is that the USS Lexington (despite all popular beliefs)
was the 1703, as on the USS Valiant was the 1709.

Yeah, I wondered why you gave it that designation but made it a refitted Constitution. Artist's license, I suppose.

and not just ANY swoop, it is an antique, dating back to KOTOR! someone should make a race track for it, and you can always make it a prop :D

well actually I didnt make this texture so the hull designation is the same that it came with
I plan to redo the texture, and modify the hull plating, because according to the cronology book, the Lexington 1703-A was refitted but never appeared in the series, same captain as before (commodore wesley)

Thanks for the heads-up on the highlight; I didn't even know there was one. Also, it's not really the KOTOR bike; it's more inspired by it.

Anyway, I finished texturing it:

Not the best, but whatevs. I've never done a model with multiple textures before, and I think I combined the meshes right; what I've got there is the picture of one polymesh. However, when I export it to .xsi and then find someone to send it to to export, do I have to make any specific note of there being two textures? Did that even make sense, lol?

Nice work Mav, lookin good.
You don't need to make note of multiple textures, the exporting process is the same no matter how many textures your model uses.

Hey, neat. I thought about making one of those a while ago. I was really into planes as a kid, and that was one of the coolest.

That said, I think you need to skinny the fuselage toward the rear, and lengthen the plane as a whole.
