Looks good!

You might want to add a cross strut assembly to attach the nacelle assembly to saucer...more like the TNG Akira. As it is, it looks good as a light cruiser concept.

What program are you using to model it?

Kepp us posted!!

Have you tried the tutorial here  web page ? It's for max3 I believe, but you can figure out the differences and work through them. It's a great tut...as a matter of fact I'm planning on going through it again; everytime I do I learn or figure something out, so it's worth it. Hope it helps!

That looks better...more secure. Also, now you can sling a weapons pod under it...this is really looking promising. I like and can't wait to see more.

Are you by chance thinking of the ones here:  Scifi-Meshes ? These are really great too, but more for high poly work.

Send it my way and I'll throw something together for it. I'll send you the files in PSP or PSD format, whichever you use, that way you can get an idea of what I did, that's how I've been learning, just getting the files with the layers and taking it apart. Just tell me what you want it named as and I'll do it up for you.

BTW, send it to my email listed in my sig.

Cool, it'll probably take a few days, but I might be able to get something done tonight at least, the saucer more the likely. I always start with that, seems to help get thing in focus, lol
