| update on the texturing. Now I don't really want to over-kill it with texturing since it is just a missile. |

| @Star/kborak. A most enjoyable thread which I have only just found & finished reading. The missile is spot on in my humble opinion as are the textures. Although you have more skill in your little finger than I have in the whole of my body, I can't help but observe that in the year 2158 I would have thought rivets to be somewhat antique as a method of retaining armour. Does look nice however. I also would have thought that the canards would have retracted inside the fuselage rather than dangle on the outside to be shot off. Artistic license, also looks nice. Lastly, I would have thought that by then they would have developed a vertical take off system thus reducing the wasted? landing deck area. Employing a tractor beam (sic! I know, wash my mouth out with soap and water) that has the capability to 'retrieve' and 'position' the fighters vertically, then to launch them forward at speed. Better still ignore my comments with contempt. You are both to be congratulated. |

Nice missiles, if I were you I wouldn't even waste any more time on it at all. Zoom out to the distance from which it will be visible in images and render. It's probably gonna be like 30 pixels, lol. Might as well move on to the carrier. | |

| SFM Nugget | Those look great. The only thing I would suggest would be to change the blue stripes. On current weapons that blue is the exact color that inert/training weapons use. Live explosives would have a yellow strip and if there was a rocket motor there would also be a brown stripe. I just notice that your width (wingspan?) is 845'. I assume that's a typo. :P |
