Wow, nice model jawa. I assume you plan on having someone texturing it? :)

Is the UTAT based on the one that was on Majin's model from ROTE (speaking of which, who made that model)?

I have but one question; why didn't you start modeling earlier?
You obviously have some tremendous talent if that's only your third model, it's really some top-notch stuff.

I am very impressed with that rifle. As for your next project, have you considered more organic forms, like, for instance, a lava tube sponge or something? They're good practice if you don't like right angles.

Please note in this scene, I take credit only for the creation of the Xwing itself, all other objects in the scene were imported from battlefront and were added in and intended simply to create a more "hangar" like feel for the scene.

O_O'
Of course, it's obvious that the X-Wing is the only model in there made by you. Nothing else is kick-arse.

It's tough to tell with all the ambiance how detailed the model really is. You did a good job of making a model that works well with the SWBF2 X-Wing texture, but I'd love to see it in just a shaded/untextured view.
