The current revision has a mix of macross and tantive thrusters, so right now it is just a mess of subassemblies in separate files held loosely together with slight insanity.<br /><br />I am fighting a lot with its main hull. It is overall lozenge shaped and the hull panels are flush welded to each other (she does not have the fitted hull plates over sockets like the CEC birds), so I am at something of a loss both in how to get the geometry just right, how to get her inner hull just right, and make the hull plates – since just drawing them on is fine in sketchup, but those lines disappear in a ported out render.Lord Auronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03388435231059837475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-772622735870268507.post-29790961253435808682013-01-15T16:57:03.520-08:002013-01-15T16:57:03.520-08:00Thanks for the compliment.

I wonder if I should start mine over since I am using them on a ship set in Star Wars, but not a replication of a screen-used ship.Lord Auronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03388435231059837475noreply@blogger.com
