If anything with panel lines, take a hint from the Phase II Big-E, and only add a bit of light aztecing and/or lines.. here's a coiple of examples as to what they were planning for Phase II..

Anything new joker?

Keep in mind, you are the modeller here.. what you want to use and accept are totally your decisions.  Go with what looks best for you, and don't feel pushed into a box that you're not comfortable in..

Hi guys thanks for your input again, I have been working on her, and she is looking a little better, have followed some suggestions and am currently texturing some light panelling and detailing the underside..

Need to still divide the thrusters. but thanks everyone  :o  Sorry about the aft text, but was not sure what to write on that big aft storage hatch??

Looks good. The military usually puts something witty on doors like "decompression danger" or "Cargo #1" even though there's only one cargo door. ;)

You could also make a bumper sticker that says, "1 800 how's my flying"! Kidding.

I love the look of the grills over the lights, a nice touch!

Hey, wb... it's looking sharp.  :)

First of all, I'd let function determine form.  If you're going to do that as a hatch and/or a ramp, I'd take a page from the screen and go this route:



That'd give you a back that'd look similar to this:

(ps: also, are those going to be lights under the ramp/hatch?)

Minor point,

The light shape you used is for a spotlight hitting at a angle. You are using a bar to light the area so the effect should be different.
People always said they wanted the government to listen to them and now the government is listening, taking notes and names...and coming to see you soon!

America-Not the land of the free anymore...
 Its the land of the freeloaders

Remember the axiom of big government bureaucrats: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. When, finally, under the crushing weight of taxes and regulation, it stops moving, subsidize it.

hmmm... true enough, or maybe reduce the bar down to a small point light (spot) to account for the wide fill..

I misplaced my memory stick, and it had the ewloe mesh on it  :(

Been looking for it for weeks but I cannot find it.

I will have to start something new.
