I am not familiar at all with these spaceships. Is it possible to make my own spaceship?

I will admit I cheated, I typed it in google and the entire first page was filled with Conquest 2 pages so I posted that as an answer. Woohoo google when you need an answer.

Good evening! I have been really wanting to join in on this and have decided to join. I may not be up to the originality of Dango so far, or the speed of modeling of tweetytunes. They are doing a very good job. I have some things I would like to work with, such as Nurbs and maybe some type of animation. I will try and post a start to my project tomorrow. But I have done cars for so long, hope I don't embarrass myself. Thanks for the chance, as I don't do soft body modeling and this is one I may be able to at least make an attempt at.

Cheers!!

P.S. I did not understand fully the last challenge or may have gotten in on it.
Challenge me and I will try. Because If I should fail, failure also has a prize (Knowledge).

it's tough trying to think of something and shaping it into the descriptions... :p

i have a picture of a baby turtle and i was like 'i can use that as a space ship!' thinking of the reptile thing...

...but i'm not going to do that... :p

i'm coming up with stuff but its hard to decide which of those categories the ship would fit into...

Objective C, C#, Java, MEL. Python, C++, XML, JavaScript, XSLT, HTML, SQL, CSS, FXScript, Clips, SOAR, ActionScript, OpenGL, DirectX
Maya, XSI, Photoshop, AfterEffects, Motion, Illustrator, Flash, Swift3D

the races are completely made up and can be pretty much anything.

Of we have enough time, can we make a fleet of spaceships? Maybe like, a mothership with some drones or fighters or something?

And does the spaceship HAVE to be textured? Would a really nice clay render suffice?

if you have time, sure, make all the ships you want.

They need to be textured though to be a valid entry.
