I can see what you mean about the texturing thought. I will do a plan rendered version and see where I will go from there.

It's more simple im afraid. I make the individual things like pipes (just cylinders stretched) and then place them. Some other bits are more complicated of course but that's it in a nut shell. That's basically where you should find hope, if you look at it as one thing it looks bit and scary and complicated. Break it down and see it for what it is and you find that you can do it.
Good luck with the future models.

anyway, how do you 'glue' them; group, parenting,?? They don't say that in my book. and when you have glued them.., do you trim the inside of the model so it is 'empty, like a shell (how) because I think that has something to do with render times?? I mean if there is geometry inside geometry??
What's happening there?? and by the way, your tip (tips and tricks) for tearing off the camera panel and placing it on another screen

I have done this with many of my models and I have had no problems. If I were doing a human or something like that then it would be a different matter.
As for tearing of a panel you just bring up the two view screen and on the left select the view you want and just click Panels --> Tear off.
farbtopf:: Cheers for your comments, nice to see that I am heading in the right direction.
Well, that's it for tonight. Of to bed until tomorrow.

So this is what I have been working on since I last posted. More of the same to be honest. Got a few more side bits like this to do and then it's on to the gubbins in the middle. You know, the filling to the Star Destroyer sandwich.

Am I right in thinking (looking at your avatar) that you have modeled a Dyson?
