looking great Sandman keep it up ... i only saw this ship on like one episode and never got a good look at it and always wondered what the entire ship looked like thanks for giving this model time and effort

Thanx guys!! ;D

There aren't a lot of canon reference pics...blurry screencaps from the show actually, but I found some pics from a guy named Ed Giddings (think he's with Scifi-Meshes) who did an awesome high poly model...that's where those two pics on page 1 are from. So, it might not be canon, but it looks good. ;D

OOOOOOOHHHHHH
I Like this work :)
I am not a fan of the ship's design (I only like a handfull of  SG1ships) but man did you model it well
She's a real beaut :)

And some more...

Which color windows do you prefer...the kinda lavander on the bow, or the bluish on the tower?

I like the ones on the bow. This ship will make good renders I think. Pretty impressive with the 6k poly count.  I must confess I never saw it in the show.

Thanx!! ;D

Won't be doing anything today...just got done with inventory at work and I'm beat. :P 2 nights of that...got done early, so they let me go at 2:20am...then, unable to get right to sleep, I sat in the livingroom drawing and actually designed a pretty cool non-Trek ship. Unfortunately, I don't have anyway to get the thing online except to model it. :-\ Hell, I might just take a picture of it, I drew top, left, front, back; came up with a backstory as I was drawing...anyway, did it all on a big piece of cardboard, so it might photograph well. :P

I'll keep y'all posted on this and the design. :)

Thanx guys!! :)

Yeah, a nice hot bath works wonders, but still a couple of hours 'til I can do that...kids still awake and only one bathroom, lol. ;D My daughter's ten and doesn't need to see her dad like that. :o Usually when this happens, it takes about 3-4 days to get better...that is unless it's like earlier and I herniate a disk...then it's months. Thankfully, I know the difference between the two, and this is your garden variety, muscle strain due to Kyphosis and overuse. :( Oh well, soon... ;)

Looking real good Sman: nice modeling and interesting subject. I havent seen Stargate.

If possible, try adding very slight shadowing to the texture where the mesh is recessed and around the greeb so it doesnt look so new and uniform. itll give it a little more relief.

may i make a suggestion though?...for your windows, dont put an bevel/emboss...put an innershadow.

Agreed, windows are usually too small for an effective bevel/emboss. try a tight inside shadow using your window layer as a selection.

Thanx LS!! ;D

When I did the tower windows, I used both...thought it look ok, but I'll try just the inner shadow. :)

Hey if it looks ok then go with it of course, usually windows are very tiny so a bevel wont show up but on larger one 4-5 pixels then bevel might start haveing effect. ;D
