now thats only like 20 minutes of work and it will be detailed ALOT more...just wanted to know what people thought

i mainly am releasing it here to go along with Kman's Samus player model..if its ever released

Looking good so far.

thankx

i use 3DS Max 4

heres an updated picture..a tiny bit more detailed with the "air intakes?" in the front and the spikes...im asuming the spikes are for taking "shock" out of electrical blasts that hit the ship or lightning storms or something.....

What evidence is there to support that? Why couldn't he just be modelling the ship for the hell of it?

*raises fist in air and yells* for the hell of it!!! :evil2: :grnlgh: :grnlgh: :grnlgh:

lol..but yea i made it just to make it..and to also go along with the Samus Aran model Kman is making...is there a metroid mod though?...wouldn't be hard to pull off....................

No matter what the reason it looks good!

heh thankx...would anyone be interested in skinning this model?..along with uvwmapping?

Skin yes, UV no.

darn...well hopefully i can find someone to uvwmap this

I could but it wouldnt be max detail but I could still try now, all I need is a .3ds of the model.

oh really?...do u have MSN or AIM so we can talk?...

No I don't have any IM's. Basically what I am saying is I could UV map it and make a skin, only if someone else were to UV map it it would be alot better.

oh alright...well ill keep searching for a uvwmapper...if i can't find anyone would u be willing to?

Sure but my recommendation is still find someone else, then I'll see about skinning it. I know Isanesith can skinmap.:D

Look really good so far Anymore updates on this awesome map :D

heh thankx CKY!...and no so far therse no uvwmap for is...i pmed insane sith but he hasn't gotten back to me yet...but hopefully he responds soon and says he won't mind uvwmapping it...i seriouslly need to learn how to uvwmap...........

Whats Uvwmapping do? :confused:

sets the model up to be skinned

well i guess insane sith hasn't responded so he can't do it..so matt...does your offer still stand? i really want a uvwmap

Hmmmm Come on someone help already :D See I would but I don't know how i'm just learning how to skin lmao.

Yes I will do it. Send the .md3 or .3ds here! ([Redacted]@[Redacted].[Redacted])

Umm....is this project still alive? Or is it just like the Samus skin thread....no one posts but they're still working on it?

it's been over a year, so i'd say no.

That sucks. :(

The ship looks good, but is it for academy? Or is it for the game you played?

academy wasn't even announced when he started it. -_-
