Hi, if I sent you a dxf in an email, would you possibly take a look at it and tell me if I completed it and opted and textured it if maybe you would host it on your site?

Well why don't you opt it and texture it and <B>then</B> ask me! Image<BR>Dxf's mean nothing to me I'm not an opter.

Ok, well here is what I have been working on.<BR>It's called an Imperial Custom's Corvette. I think it was BiosBoy who posted the link to the site that had it's schematics. The weird thing is it was the only ship on the site that wasn't included in the EGVV so I decided to make a model of it. I could opt and texture it in its current state but I wanna add some more detail. So I am open to any reccomendations. top, side, back, front<BR> Image <BR> Image <BR> Image <BR> Image <BR><p>[This message has been edited by Otana (edited 04 April 2002).]

D'oh!<BR>I've been working on that for the last week, although yours looks better than mine Image<BR>you seem to be missing the small struts on the inside of the 'blades' at the front, other than that it looks fine Image<BR>Good luck<P>------------------<BR>When 900 years you reach, look as good you will not, hmm? :)

Oh hehe sorry bout that. Well thanks for your comments Image<BR>Rich, do you have any idea what color this thing is supposed to be? I'm assuming it's going to be that familiar imperial grey, but I could be mistaken.<p>[This message has been edited by Otana (edited 04 April 2002).]

I thought of it as an Imperial grey too, although I imagined it having a Blue trim, somewhat like the Marauder Corvette, and the circular areas on the wings seen in the schematic I was going to make as Imperial Insignia.

Nah it wasn't me who posted the link.<P>Your all cows, big fat hairy cows Image I was just starting that model, well 10 faces. I really liked it as it reminded me of the Marauder Corvette like you said Rich C. I imagined blue on it as well.<P>Oh well I might still do it anyway even if its just for me Image

Awww, jeez louise you guys are making me feel bad about doing this now. I bet both of you could do a much better one anyway, so why don't both of you work on it together and just forget this post ever happened Image<BR>You can use my dxf if you want, but you probably won't hehe Image<BR>I just wish there was a site where they made up blueprints of ships I've never seen before because it seems like so many have already been done

Well, if you like Otana I'll help you out with it, I've given up on mine now so I won't be carrying on with it, I have a few models I need to finish at the moment anyway. But as i said I don't mind giving you a hand Image<BR>I only have the EGVV blueprints, and I searched for ages to find pics, anyone else have comic pics or something?<P>------------------<BR>When 900 years you reach, look as good you will not, hmm? :)
