Looks great so far! I suppose you're using NURBS?
Do you think you'll do a battlescene or anything?

I did some more tweaking before I start the cockpit. I fix the motor area and the front part of the wing. I will do the grid on the top and bottom of the wing soon.

Since im hosting my own image, i dont think the admin will not be ok with this since im not using their space and Bandwith

this is very cool, as a big bsg fan it's nice to see some of the ships on the forum as they seem to be appearing a lot less often on the show user added image

Just out of curiousity what are you using for reference? screen caps from the series or did you find some orthographic refs?

Yes, i did use reference but only for the rough shape, I dont like to be true with the plan, that why i prefer to do my own creation.

Don't be afraid of what you can see, but be afraid of what you cant see.
