Duplicated view of the bridge, looking pretty smart now.

Tomorrow in going to do some of the hull detail and then work of the other levels. That should keep me busy for a while.

It's hard to cope with rejection of any sort, sometimes its just social polotics, nothing to do with your ability. Hard not to be affected, you must have worked it off on your model. Amazing. truly amazing, a lot of work.
take it easy and life will be easy

That back view is great, it gives a sense of scale. The poly count is understandably large, any guesses how heavy the finished model is going to be? Keep up the good stuff.
Take it easy,
Mat.

I remember watching Star Wars and being amazed by two things when it came to the ship.
1- That they were so detailed, you could look at every frame and see something new. It's not like the smooth sleek ships of Star Trek but these dirty industrial hulks cutting their way through space.
2- That someone actually sat dawn and made these thing in a garage somewhere. I think that 3D models can take away some of the magic I think (I did in the later film but there was a lot more to blame). Watching those amazing things was all the more amazing when you knew that they were real.
On the job front ... well I will of course stick at it. I can't go back to working at a shop full time and just doing this as a hobbies. I have invested too much of my life just too give up at the first try.
On the subject of death, it is Klingon custom to kill your superior to get promoted. I wonder if that can be applied to killing someone just to get their job. :attn:

It would be interesting to see what the surface sampler in Maya would make of your finished piece.
Take it easy,
