as always, excellent work.
can you do a 3qtrs perspective shot, from the forward(nose end, or bow) portside of the ship, at 1280 x 1024 resolution, with a generic star background, decent lighting setup?...

Okey, but give me time as always . I'm going to try it this weekend.

Looks great!

It took about four hours to do... fortunately I forgot what I felt during paneling work because these panels look better than I expected

Skinfaxi's mesh had been released and I'm going to release Sleipnir's mesh in LW format, at the end of May or earlier.
Unfortunately I can not handle 3DS Max data. (Yep, though there are lots of wonderful meshes in 3DS Max format, I can not use them...)

Sometimes you can. All that you need is a obj, 3ds or dxf export from max. Lightwave can import all these formats, I´m sure. The trouble is the mapping, which maybe you´ll have to reapply and the flipped pollys, which sometimes you´ll have to flip manually.

At my side, I can say all of your lwo meshes resulted in perfect obj or 3ds files, which imports very well in max. Isn´t necessary to flip pollys, just to reapply the textures. Of course that optimization is needed too, it´s cause the translation process, not cause your fault. Your meshes are really great, a piece of art, I can say.

If you´re looking for a specific 3ds or obj export, let me know and I´ll see what can I do for you.

One more time, thanks!!

Your doing fine Tan j!
All you need to do is release it as is and let the people who want to PORT to 3D MESH!

As I said and he said, he did release it. It is in the download section here at SFM. He doesn't have Max so he can't export it. I tried to but I just haven't had the time to figure out how to do it.
