      Minor tweaks. Trying to tighten things up a little. Refining the shapes. Double checking lines and positions for the future details before I start on the upper decks shapes.

          Upper deck was too long in the back.

          Sloped the main hull a little bit more. Still needs a bit more slope on upper and lower hull. So, so glad I did not detail the main hull yet.

            Roughing the bridge. It's close, but not round enough.

                Smoothed out the bridge. Had to completely rebuild. Used Curviloft skin countours. It's done, just needs detailing.

                Added the bubble to the main hull. It's a group within the component. (it's too small and I've already enlarged it)

                Fiddled with the overall shape of the upper decks. Smoothed out (Erase+Ctrl) and narrowed the front of the neck. Erase+Ctrl'd the remaining hull lines, except the very top.

                  Blocking out the top decks. Same old issues. Odd angles and shapes. No decent references.

                          Thanks Mike and tuna, but the level of detail is going to take a while. Here is a sample.

                            Still working on the block out of the upper decks.

                                  The animation will have to wait. Brain frazzled from working on the upper decks.

                                  For the same reason I'm taking a break from figuring out the upper decks, so I just did some inner detailing. Inset the main beam muzzle and resized the inner front pylon nacelle mounts. Also added the black panels to the front nacelle struts. They will also get more detail in the future.

                                    I really do love the shape of this ship. 4 months (four?! damn) of working on it and I still like looking at it.

                                      Not a lot to see. Still pushing and pulling vectors and lines and even redrawing lines for the upper decks. It's getting there. A little more sleeker and smoother.

                                      Took a stab at the upper deck rear pods. Meh. Better, but I'll have to remake them.
