What application are you using? If you're using TrueSpace, try it step by step like my latest tutorial and you'll be surprised at the results.

This last attempt has been the best one I've ever done! I think it's going to be the version I use from now on.

This is an excellent tutorial which isn't really bound to one application. Many of the methodes are workable in other 3D apps.

May I ask where you found the schematics?

Three different sets of blueprints and where to find them are right in the first post!

I'm going to use Alan Sinclair's Enterprise blueprints because IMHO, they are the best out there but you may use whatever you choose.

No problem! There's a lot of posts in this thread and finding just the little bit of info you're looking for could be intimidating.

I'm sure there's more to choose from out there, but it's not as easy to find as you might think.

One year ago, I presented a simple tutorial with the basics to build a saucer using 3dsmax 7. Since some peoples asked how to build a saucer using max, I´m providing the link to my old tut: http://starships.host.sk/tutorials/3...e_A_Saucer.pdf
Scifieric I´m not trying to hijack your thread, just to help a bit the max guys. Hope you don´t mind about to post the link here.
