Well, from the 1st angle, I can see nothing wrong with it. As always, I'm a smoothing nut and would love to see perfectly smooth models, but that's a little unrealistic for games. :P

Same. Hmm... I have an idea for an awesome variant... What would be the TNG equivalent of spinners?

Oh god, what have I started?! Maybe the navigational thrusters could be preset to simulate Hydraulics? :lol:

Anyway, this is as far as I can go with the shuttle. Should I send it to BCF?

Thanks DJ. And for the record she stands at 3016 polys! May actually be able to cut off a few, even if it doesn't need it.

Limey, Don't make me dig up the last texturing effort. :lol: I just don't have the knack. Probably would help if I bought a Wacom though... Very tempted to start doing the interior, but I think I've almost burned out my modelling mana for the moment.

EDIT: 500 polys gone just like that.

It really does, I'm almost licking my lips thinking about it, buuuut, it is listed somewhere on the ever-busy 3rd-era's bridgelist. I dunno. Just noticed the front window was waaaaay off center. Nobody told me?!  :P

I had thought about that, and specifically that Type-11, but Type-6's always seem to have the tinted windows... May just be because of all the UV radiation in space. :lol: Still, could always be done.

I don't actually think 3rd era is working on any bridges at all right now.  They are all on Excal now.

We-eelll.. It's nice to have canon excuses for budget cutbacks. :lol:

Just got ahold of the Type-8 and Type-9 stuff. The 9 looks like it'll be a fun challenge. :D

And yeah, I know about the bridges bit. I unfortunately don't have the time to learn all the bits to bridge modding, so I figure it'd be best left to the experts or those with time to try.

I hate to ruin your fun Prim but the front window needs to be in line with the side windows.
"To live on as we have is to leave behind joy, and love, and companionship, because we know it to be transitory, of the moment. We know it will turn to ash. Only those whose lives are brief can imagine that love is eternal. You should embrace that remarkable illusion. It may be the greatest gift your race has ever received."
