setsuna PJOZ doesn't modle he uses a 2d graphic progam to formulate his ideas and then ALX makes them into models for him. Alx only started modeling a few months ago and the models he creates now are top notch.

what about using them as the ends of arms putting engines on the underside.

I do model, Merlin I just don't have time for it outside of my work , but as an engineer working on megabuck CAD software, I think I'm more than qualified to help with technical questions. That 2 Litre fruit juice bottle that you have seen or used, was modelled by someone like me, for CADCAM, and takes about 100 hours of work before metal is cut for the mould.

to what are you refering

and PJOZ thecurve to which you refer are the left overs from a circle that i started with i just havent softened those lines yet.

aye m8 you are a real "modeler/engineer" compared to us laymen

[Cmdr. Setsuna F. Seyei]

ok heres an update feedback welcome.
(except from the peanut gallery)

[locutes]

The beginning is there

[Alx]

that looks much better.

[Cmdr. Setsuna F. Seyei]

that looks much better.

Thank you


by the way the sig is a JOKE

[Alx]

lol i got that bud no worries also sent a PM your way.

but back on topic i like this new shape you have going relly has a Jaffa/egyptian feel to it with a slight bird of pray spice, and i must complement you on trying your hands at organic shapes so early on in your modeling, and as you might be aware by now SU is difficult to work with when it comes to organic modeling so cudos on that!

NO EFFIN CRAP!!!!!!

[Alx]

i think it worked out well looks mean and sort of like a bird very goa'uld/jaffa-ish IMO

and yeah lol had many bugsplats? annoying arnt they

[Cmdr. Setsuna F. Seyei]

no worries about bugs no wind shield yet.

or were you talking about in SU as i model?

if so its more anoying when im trying to do something and all of the sudden my effin model blinks out of existence.

[Dr Lee]

Thought i'd show off the status of the Midget base design i've been working on since the last modelling challenge finished....



It's a bit dark atm... but i can run off a quick render later with the lights up higher if need be....

[Cmdr. Setsuna F. Seyei]

you might want Dr. Lee can barely see the interior.

and here are updates

oh and has anyone looked for my sig. on the models. if you think you have found it plz let me know what it is.

and heres a color scheme im thinking of going with
