I’ll start adding details next and smoothing out a few of the rough spots!

Please tell me this is how most projects start out looking. :-?

it looks a bit rough at the moment because there’s no smoothing. There are three options, but they might not all work.

Try subsurfs, lower left in the f9 menu, it will smooth everything out, but it might not work on the model and go psycho, so if it looks good, keep it else don’t use it

Set smooth, f9 menu, will smooth EVERYTHING out on the mesh, so you will probably lose some sharp edges that you want to have. Try it anyway.

Auto Smooth, above subsurf in f9, you won’t see a difference until you render, but it smooths off the small angles but keeps the sharp ones. You can adjust the angles below, but 30 is pretty good.

The model is actually pretty good looking, it’s just you can see the individual faces and that stuffs up any model. Try these ideas and hopefully it will look better.

coming along nicely. :slight_smile: I don’t know if you’ll want to smooth everything, because then it might look organic, which is weird 'cause it’s a space ship…

interesting name “Dominatrix” for a spaceship… It is a bit misleading though. I had pictured something with a lot more leather and metal studs… :wink: :wink: :wink:

Hey, yeah,. Its the name I’ve given to every Star Ship I have had in every game that would let you name the ship. When it was posible to created crews, they would all be female. :wink:

Looks pretty good so far.
The design sort of looks like a cross between a fish and garden scissors. :wink:

It’s fantastic to see people actually creating the ships in Blender instead of cenverting!!

Right then… looking good so far… but the cam 2 pic… secondary needs work… specially around the deflector dish.

But since it’s a WIP I’m sure yer going to get that…

It’s nice so far… I’m definitely going to keep an eye on you!

SO HURRY!! :smiley:

Well, :-? I’ve tried smoothing it out, but I’m haveing issues with it. Other than that most everything else I have tried to do hasn’t helped anything really, I’m still really new at this and this is pretty much as far as I’ve gotten a project to go. So the question is, whats next?
