      Got the rear pods cleaned up. Had some reversed faces as well. All fixed now.

          Thanks! Just simple shapes, really. Circles, rectangles and then some angles to make it interesting. Offset and Push/Pull here and there. Joint Push/Pull for more complex shapes.

          Oh, I forgot Tools on Surface. I used to do shape intersects, but Tools on Surface is much faster.

          But mostly, just simple shapes.

              A habit from my old computer without enough power. Keep the model size as low as possible. Find the simplest shape and the least amount of faces while still being believable.

              Update: flared the "flares". This was actually very easy. I selected all the end faces of the flares at once and then used the scale tool to enlarge. It dragged all the faces outward and moved the attached geometry with it.

                It looks different from every angle.

                Still figuring out the greeble for under the bow.

                          Thanks L i am.

                          Updates. So I think this is enough for the front under bow greeble. Any more and it starts taking away from the style/shape. The rods are sensors, not weapons.

                          Also started positioning the letters. That's going to take some time. But I'm fairly close now. Did not have exact font used so this will have to do.

                                        Another test render. I think it's almost finished. Just need to add the engine exhausts.
