One thing I'm not sure about though is that this actually isnt the unsc prowler. The model is still good, but its really a unsc frigate of some kind. You can name it whatever you like though.

There are actually no picture of a Prowler, but from the books it sounds basically like the Charon-Class Light Frigate but without the hanger bay.

Actually a Prowler looks almost like a klingon or romulan ship. It looks nothing like any other UNSC ship. The model you made more closely resembles a Paris-Class heavy frigate, noting the absence of the large hanger bay on the bottom. Its almost impossible to tell the difference between the UNSC's frigates due to their similar shape and size. Their only real difference is in arms and armor as well as fleet duties, all of which are kinda hard to tell with just a model.

This is what a prowler actually looks like: http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/UNSC_prowler

Good point, I had completely forgotten about that it showed up in that mini.. There can always be more than one class of Prowler haha :p It looks a lot like the Paris Class cus its kinda a kit bash. I was working on making a Paris Class but could never get the lower section to look right, so I just took it out and moved the aft hull forward a bit. When I did that it takes 1/4th of its length down and kinda makes it look more leak (well, for a human Halo ship) so I thought it could make a cool Prowler or light frigate.

May want to hold out a little bit, I have decided to redo the ships textures. As it is right now it has no light or bump map (BC uses them right?) and it would probably look a load better if it was done..

BC doesn't use bump maps but it does use speculars.  :)

Darn, wish I had seen that BEFORE I added bump maps haha.. oh well, they are pretty much the same thing, I'll see about it. The Bump map I added is kinda just in there, the frigate is really shiny, but its a wip, to be expected to have some problems haha...

No worries it's just BC showing its age. Nice Frigate by the way. Can't wait to see what else you have.
