LOL, yeah, Murphy's becoming my best friend... My ship 'Olympic' (see wip *plug*plug*) is becomeing so heavy that even with 4GB of ram it's gettign difficult even rendering it. If you're familiar with .max file sieze... mine's getting close to 120MB...
@XRaiderV1.7 - $30 dollars for a poster when it's done, $50 more like and you might be waiting a long time
@Meph - Why has the hexagonal thing got you hooked?
There is an update coming but I have been a bit busy at work and not had much time to spend modeling.
For those who want to know the poly count is now 68,011 poly's and the file size in blender is 12.6mb as Athena stands now.
I asked, theres only so big they can go when printing, so, using archival quality paper, decent inks, and lamenating, actually works out to be about $30-$35 dollars, not counting taxes(tax sucks!)
I have been spending a lot of time trying to get things right on the flight pods.
here is a pic
there are still some things to sort out like some of the ribs seem to be a little out of place and the Viper launch tubes to be put in place and the panels might not stay the way they are but only time will tell.
Please Keep Your Comments and Suggestions Coming They are aways welcome:thumb:
I have sorted out the problems with the flight pods ribs and they are now looking a lot better. I have also redone the armor panels on the lower part of the head and they are looking 100% better then they did.
I'll post up a new pic soon:D
I have been thinking about what ship to start after I finish modeling this one Hmmm something on the Clyon side I think:D
Hey Ice Dragon I love all your work and finally read everything you posted about all your model ( again great work) and need to ask a question: does your gunstar land on Battlestars like colonial 1 did?
Maybe I should I.M you instead of bothering these nice people so please I do that in future!
I though she was a little bit smaller than that.
the main guns on the Gunstar look bigger than the ones you have on the battlestar.
But they both are looking great!

Here is a updated pic for you all:D
@ Kenny - I am going to go back and redo my Ragnar Anchorage Depot and as for the Cylon ship........ a new baseship might be on the cards;)
Maybe I should I.M you instead of bothering these nice people so please I do that in future!
@Darkone - in regards to the size of the Gunstar she is a little shorter then the flight pods on the Athena and uses the same main guns as well.
Here is a comparison pic for you:D
the main guns on the Gunstar look bigger than the ones you have on the battlestar.
But they both are looking great!
@Freak - those guns are the same size, must just be the fact that there more noticeable on the Gunstar because of her size:D
Progress is a little slow at the moment but as soon as I have something to post up I will:p
