Funny thing, I havnt done any 3dmodeling for a couple of years now but for a month ago i randomly decided to check out scifi-meshes and I saw that this old old thread was on the front page. I looked through it and saw my old "projects" and all the comments and got this urge to start 3dsmax again.
A couple of nights, ice cold beer and good music and this is what I have to show.
Glad you're back at it. I actually love the look of this ship. It's got that ugly cool look that I've always loved from the SW universe. Details are looking excellent. It's amazing how many boat hulls, tankers, and rockets they kit bashed to make this ship.
I'm glad to see you're back at it too. This is one of my favorite ships, probably because it's so odd looking. My sister and I called it "the gun ship" when we were kids because the front looks like an upper receiver and pistol grip and the mid section and back a barrel and flash suppressor. So, it looks like a big gun.
I can tell this is going to be another great model.
By the way, could you link me to finished shots of your blockade runner? I remember that thread, but don't remember seeing the finished model. I can't seem to find the thread. I've been gone for a long time.
The blockade runner model is finished, I started doing the textures but it ended up being to much for my old computer so i never finished it all togheter. Now I with a new computer i could probably finish it, who knows maybe some day i will come back to it
Heres a link to the latest wip thread when i started to make the textures:
Nice update! You are really nailing the details. How is the detailing going on the other side? Are the details different on the other side? Not much out there on that view.

I think it is pretty much symmetrical apart from the medical bay window on the left side of the primary hull section and the tower on the top of the engineering section which I think is slightly offset to one side.
@jay-mo, The other side is very much different from the side im working on now so there is plenty work. Its pretty amazing how much detail and work was put in the studiomodels for pretty much a 20sec closeup shot.
More work, finished the basic shape of the cannon thing on the lowest part of the ship.

I think the old original thread is removed due to age or something.
If you want I could post some new shots of the model.
That would be cool.
And lovely work so far! Like all the ships from that era, it's greeble-liscious!
