WIP Excelsior JJverse

[dubeau]

Very interesting design, looks good! My only suggestion would be to tone down the aztec-ing. My understanding (and I may be wrong) is that it's just to show the slightly different shades of the construction panels used to build the ship. I see a lot of models that are ruined because of the aztec paint job.
.

I agree. It's the ting that isn't completely finished. At least all the UVW maps are set, so I only have to refine it

Last spots. I have change the texture too, but I will present a small clip later

What are those violet-colored saucer-shaped things? The ones that appear to be set on some sort of tracks.

I was under the impression that they were some sort of turbo-lifts.

There are tractor beams generators, and they are on tracks. When you have a shuttle/cargo to place...

This is much better I think. I made it with a tint of blue. Now that would be it for this project. I want to make two wallpapers and a video presentation. The model should be also available for download.

Well, it's part Myverse too. That said, I didn't put any lens flares...so you can actually SEE the ship.
