        Hey Liam, really long time no see.
        I would really love to see a ship of your own conception some time.
        Cheers

          Well you can post them on this thread, it's in the gallery section, it's sci fi as the thread's title suggests so i think it will be ok.
          An yeah that was a ship of mine on conceptships, it was the same ship on my avatar here, the USS Thrace.

            Nice, i knew it was sketchup when I saw it lol and being star-trek it could only be you ha. When I get back from work in a couple of hours ill be sure to post some of my things form my hard drive. Been playing around with lightwave aswell, working out its renderer so I can render my sketchup models in that should be awesome when that starts working lol.

                Practice makes perfect and im still far off that, thats why I joined this site to get some help with certain things and feedback. Here are some more pictures of things I have done with sketchup.

                  This image is supposed to be 6000*px in width however due to upload constraints it is now 1700px, therefore the images loose a lot of their clarity and the text is no longer readable. The larger images can be seen over at my page on SFM if you wish to read the text. The link is in my user profile.

                        I would ive been trying all morning however when I try and post images the loading bar just stays in limbo for 20mins+ and doesnt post. Ill give an image hosting site a try fingers crossed! The internet in work is going a bit slow maybe its something to do with that?

                          Yeah same to you, although i could have sworn i saw one of your models on concept ships .org? Yeah anyay thought id join this site as there arnt' many sketchup users knocking about on SFM anymore. Ive got a few ships in the works is there anywhere on this site I can post a few WIP's? then I can show you?
                          Also only 9 of these ships are form the games the rest came from my own expanded universe, or brain lol. I did have help with some models taking descriptions form the novels, but still put my own spin on them especially the stations, the largest of which was over 100MB sketchup file!
