            This is great! I look forward to seeing it with a few textures, what program do you use to make them?

                emm ok I'll rephrase that: what program do you use to create the textures, or do you get them from a website?

                          some new renders of the cleaned up power armor:

                          And then some pics of the first models I ever did in SU a few years back! wow they are crap, at the time I thought they where amazing its good to look back and see how far ive come using SU and now modelling in max too.
                          Back then I had no idea of grouping, components, intersection etc it was all a bit of a mess really.
                          The two houses and little spaceship where my first ever go, probably spent a whole day on it also, the others are a bunch of other stuff I made in the following months.
                          The last two images are models i made form the star wars universe, they are the first 'real' models I created using Sketchup. Probably going back to 2007 here so its been quite a while. Just thought I would post and share for others to see my first forays into 3D and SU!!!!

                              thanks, the suit is about a year old maybe its just ive revisited it to clean it up and work on some of the joints and mechanisms, so far ive perfected the cockpit open close and the kneel function.

                                  Here is the work in progress of the scene that the final render of my helicopter will be shown. Been working on it this afternoon and finish it tomorrow probably.
                                  I havent added real details for the interior yet and items such as the elevators are just placeholders.

                                        Hi Liam

                                        I hear you use photoshop for your textures. I would recommend using The GIMP. It's a very handy tool, might want to give it a shot?

                                        Remember, great minds think alike, and fools never differ.

                                          no photoshop is far superior to GIMP, ive been using the adobe suite since v.7 and ive recently upgraded to CS4 extended. GIMP can only do so much you need more powerful software for real editing.
                                          Plus I usually paint over my renders to make them look better for example:
