Recently I have noticed that there have been quite a few topics concerning the use of certain aspects of Strata 3D, and yesterday Madman80513 posted a topic about making the ships spin in Strata 3D. To help Madman with his problem I made a breif tutorial of how to do this, and it got me thinking about making more. Currently I have only made the one about making the ships spin but I will be making more that go into harder aspects of working with Strata 3D. As I make them I will post them here.

So, what is the point of this topic??? Well I was wondering if there are any aspects of Strata 3D that any of you would like me to make? Currently I will be making the following tutorials probably in this order :

1. Making a basic ship with Strata 3D - making a shuttle
2. More complicated ship building with Strata 3D - er making a gunship size ship
3. Texturing
