*blows dust off of topic*

Well it's been a while! Anyway, I've finally come back with something. Definately not my best work, but it's ok I guess. It's a new fighter. This render picture makes it look really bad, but meh it's ok. I think I modeled it sideways though. :oops:

Ummm... could you re-render that with either 1) a bit more light or 2) light background, dark ship... I can barely see any details in that picture, so I can't comment one way or another on it.

Ok, that's better... I can see details now. Thanx!! Lookin' good, I'm gonna assume you ain't put a texture or anything on it. Might wanna add some more gun turrets to make it look more menacing. :)

Maybe you could make it so that it is not so obvious what shapes it is made of. You can see all shapes quite clearly, elipses etc. If it was more seemless, it would be even better. Though it is cool.

Yeah like I said, I've just kind of been out of modeling for a bit, so I'm just kind of regaining my skills. I too think i need to blend it a bit better (especially the "egg" thing in the middle), and so I will. If anyone out here is igood at drawing, I never have good ideas LOL. If I had a drawing or something to work off of I could make it a lot better.

Ummmm... latest and greatest?? It just looks like a cylinder and a ring, merged. If that's the best you can do, then that's rather bad... I mean, c'mon... I can do that, and I have like, zero 3d modeling experience!!

Ya know, you don't have to be so harsh. :( But Yeh I guess I forgot to mention it's still a WIP. Oh well my fault I guess. Anyway I have an updated render but I don't think I'm gonna post it yet, since SOME people here don't appreciate my work.

Let's try to keep this discussion constructive and professional, please. There's a difference between concept art and a finished product, and although I'm a fairly amateur designer myself, I could see posting an idea for a ship before spending a lot of time on it, so....everyone stay nice. :)

Latest render.......Made it a bit longer, thickened the ring and made it a bit taller, and added in 4 "laser guns" (or whatever you guys wanna call them). Also, I added what I hope will be the main cannon underneath. You don't really see it in this render, but it's there. I need to fix it up just a bit though.

Thanks. Any suggestions so far? Maybe thicker body? That's what I've been thinking.....

Edit: oh, and if your all wondering why my older pictures don't show up, it's cause I deleted them from the website where I host everything.
