the Magnaguard fighter looks excellent. nice textures

Thank you but i wish i could claim i created the texture  from scratch, All i did was take pics of a toy and edit the results to fit my mesh in the eyes of some thats LAME CRAP but the model did come out 1/2 way decent after the 5th maping attempt

Don't apologize for taking pics of a toy, or model, and using them.  That is what Moonraker did, and all these years later people still do ships with bits and pieces of those pictures taken of the studio model.

Exactly.. use what you can and learn from there.  Working from a toy means that you also have a "RL" model to base new textures on when you start to experiment with them.  So don;t apologize, revisit the ship later and see if you can replace parts of the texture with stuff you generate yourself.. until you get a final result with your own textures.

 The model is only 800 some odd poly its just a few boxes/ cylnders shaped to fit , to tell you the truth i modeled it in about 3 1/2 hrs , about 1/2 hr to get parts to fit , some vert edits and cut poly in non needed areas. If i was to go accurate  would be around 10 more hrs of constant messing with it {useing this ref only that is} .  Textures 4-6 years for that quality i think .
Edit  i was sent this ref {pic} just after i posted the reply here, this wip took little under 90 min too bad speed modeling isnt a real job someone needs .
