This is a simple space ship I’ve designed from a previous ship idea. There are several things I want to change and fix (textures are a must, maybe add more detail, etc…) but, this is really only my second model that I’ve done from scratch. Simple, yes, but I also think that it stands out to a certain extent. I also want to add a sun to the background, but have no idea how to do that besides using Gimp and bringing it to blender. Oh well, any comments, good or bad are welcome, but if you give suggestions on things to change, please give a simple explanation on how to do it please, I’m still very much a noob when it comes to some of the more complicated stuff, ex: nodes… Anyway, be as harsh as you must be…

(on the last picture, I took the glare node off, it was really bright and made the pic almost unbearable to look at. good for animation, bad for picture.)

Thanks.

Edit- I’d also like to see about adding some lens flares where the light glare is too if anyone could help.

I think it’s lacking interest. Put some more detail in!

Your ship looks cool, but I’m not sure what I’m seeing :wink:

I suggest adding some features that help define where the front of the ship is and in which direction it flies and where the engines are. Maybe you could add these features purely as a texture.

I’m looking forward to seeing this progress.
