I'm using Poser. It's totally unsuited to the job(for ships, pretty good for race pics) but I can't be bothered to learn anything else at the moment.

Geoschmo



After looking at it myself, I'd go for the latter. If it were a single shaft it'd be one thing. But as it is, I don't see the problem. Your wife must be really thrilled by the rockets on the pads at NASA, Geo.

Geoschmo I never intend to give it a "suggestive" look. You can be sure that if I ever want to make a dirty looking shipset I'll go straight to the point.

Don't worry Kwok I intend to finish this shipset even if Geoschmo doesn't choose it for his race. And thanks for your suggestions.

And the program I use to make the ships is 3d studio max r2 (yes I know it's old, r4 is out there, but it's the one I could get and don't intend to buy such an expensive program).

Andres, be sure to post the followup designs - I'm interested in seeing more of the ships...

The same ship and a smaller one. Probably battlecruiser and escort.

Keep up the good work!

I still think you should move the middle 'prong' back and make some sort of torpedo/missile launcher or deflector dish thing...
