    • Also ships will usually look better if you render them with anti-aliasing on full, and if you do it at an angle, either 30 or 45 degree. Gives 'em more of a sense of realism and suchlike.

      I believe what she means is that the metalic texture just looks white... If she replaced the spin (more likely to be a rléd I believe) with a mask, then how would it tell what the mask was? Plus it would be kinda obvious. Good try though.

      As for the juggernaught ship... I dunno, everyone gives people advice when they start about everything, and taking notice of it is good. But one thing you need to remember is that every time you make a new model, you learn a new trick, you figure out things look better a certain way, you improve just that bit more. So the answer? Keep at it! Make as many ships as you can, and eventually you'll be good. The old saying goes, practice makes perfect. If you have to make fifty, a hundred crappy ships even, just to make an incredible one, then trust me, it's worth it. Just do it! 🙂 Anyone can practice!

    • well, i made a ufo, sorta, and i wanted to post it up here to show you and ask how to make it into a spin so that i can fly it around, but i could not figure out how to do it by the online manual, and i can't really put the picture up becuase i am not sure how to use the of the (url) to get a image from a desktop. man, i can just about do anything with res edit now, including adding ships with diffrent shans, but wow this is tuff. lol. thank you all again though, for this continous help your all giving me.

      You can't get the url from the desktop, unless you have your computer set up as a server. This is unlikely, so you will have to upload it to some web server, such as GeoCities (ugh) or AngelFire (...), which do not even let you use the img tags. Instead, you will have to make a quick webpage, which includes the picture in it, and link to the webpage.
