Okay Iam back up and running. I downlad the latest copy of Blender. which has alot of improvments, but once again they have moved the buttons. one of the most improtant buttons I use is the Undo, this has now been moved and I have not found it yet. so this is causing a few issues.

Anyway, I have now modelled the fonrt of the ship. I have made a few changes. two reason for this, one to make it look better, and two I an not that good enough modeller to make it exact to what it was.
I am also changing the way I model this. instead of modelling the basic shape I am doing it in section and detailing it before moving on. So the noise and fonrt cockpit are done and panelling has begin.

I will post pic's of where I am up to on Monday.

In other news I am looking at getting an external HD, to resovle the issue on backing up the files.

Cool man, good to hear you're up and running again .

About the undo.. have you tried using ctrl-z? That's usually the universal shortcut for undo.

I was sorry to hear that you have lost your new fighter but glad to hear that you are going to rebuild it

I have been using the new version of blender and ctrl-z IS the way to undo

@Meph that first link is one of the best to show what the keys do for anyone using or starting to use Blender

Thanks I-D.

Meph that link is for a old version of Blender, It is now currently on Version 2.46
Though I am still using Version 2.4 on the PC at home.

As promised here is the start of the rebuild.
As you can see I have made one major change which is on top.
As I am going to do this by sections by section, it will take longer to build the basic shape. I have all ready started on the panelling as you can see from the ship in the lower part of the pic. I am now about half way though panelling this section. Once completed I will build the cockpit. Which is the peaces just above the Max man head.

I have also given a name to this fighter the Odin Mark II. The Mark I was the first build, I have also created a back story on what happened to the Mark I.

I have also done a bit more back story for my Universe. I have also given a name to the Bad guy. The Naraka Empire, Naraka is Hindi meaning Hell. Which work’s well with the name of story. “To Hell and Beyond” (TH&B)
