Exclamation Xtra resources for ya

Found these last week, really good quality, and they print nice too, lol
most have top/side views, although there are a couple of exceptions, forget which though, they should give you some more ideas.

Heres the link to the index page the images are on:
Battlestar Galactica

Below please see an example of what i mean
P.s. Keep those images comming, i like what im seeing enough to wanna add some completed orthographics to my Reference image collection

p.s.s that ship could easily pass for a battlestar, even though shes a strikestar, lol, might you make a Battlestar variant at somepoint?

I agree as well, Flight pods make the ship,lol, although i like this design too.

please count me in as one of the few who would like a pre vista release of that sweet kick bleep ship.

Please PLEASE take time when creating an image.

One more warning for you though - I am expecting this to end up around 3.5MILLION polygons, if not more, with large base maps to break it up. so I wouldnt even touch the model with anything less than:

Windows XP
64bit or Core Duo processor, 2.24ghz or equiv (AMD X2 64Bit 4200)
2GB DDR Ram
Geforce 7800+ or ATI Radeon 1800

This is for your own sake, those are lowest specs I'd even mess with this on.
can we get that in jpeg? lol

You see how ugly the valk is from the top view? Mine looked exactly like that, totally unbalanced and sort of whale-like. I wont allow that, and that's why I need the galactica style ones, to have a little more depth on the X axis.

Could you post a top view with the old engine pods? I thought it looked great, I just can't picture it looking like a whale with the old engine pods.
