Very Nice you seem to have followed the design of the X-wing very well. I'm curious as to how your going to do the other side. Does milkshape have a mirror function, that actually works? I can't remember seeing one...

Milkshape has excellent mirroring capabilities, he will have no difficulty whatsoever. If he textures it first it will mirror the uv's also. Excellent modelling tlu_poreba, great work altogether.

it will mirror the uv's however the thing i really disslike with milkshape is mirroring multiple groups in one go, it will only aply a texture to each group, it would of been cool if they mirrord the groups aswel, aplying the same texture to the groups.

im not sure how advanced you are in milkshape but work with the smoothing options and weld your vertecies, it will help thoe rounder things look, well more round, and i think your nose isnt welded together, however this is a WIP so pleanty more to see yet.

That was my biggest discouragement with milkshape, the welding, it always messed me up...

I never could get the welding to work, I always ended up welding a hand to a foot or something :P

thank you, however, the engine cylinders need a slight amount of fixing. and I need to make/get the textures.
