I like it! Can't give much feedback on wireframe and stuff, though. I'm not a modeler. From a layman's perspective, it looks great. :D

Hey guys, this is something I whipped up today for practice. I saw a blue print for the E Wing and I thought that would be fun to model. So it's pretty much done:

Now I just have setup the UVW then texture it.

are the engines on the wings supposed to be round? If so, I'd increase the number of faces around the sides of the cylinder. Otherwise, a brief look seemed good to me.


One of my SW:TOR characters carries a light saber like this. Not textured yet.

That's a nice GNK there Leppers.

Here is a little something I'm working on for AQT's new map.

Dark Forces style Bryar pistol. Because the Jedi Knight Outcast one sucks.

I don't know how well it works, but I thought I'd try and display my models in gif format to show the wireframes. Just an experiment. Making the gif not flash like that there in the end is, not easy. Because of magic.

Now for UV's, AO, and then texturing it.

These were my references.
