What do you do on a long plane flight...? I play around with polygons....
This is what I do when trapped on an airliner for 12 hours on one day and 10 hours on another....
Flying to Japan could have it's benefits....
This time I built a Reaver ship...
With the limited references out there, and the fact this was all done on a notebook touch pad, I suppose it could be much worse.....







Them Reavers was nasty folks.
My version still needs alot of tweaking....More dirt, dents, hull tears, creepy lighting, etc. the refs and screen caps I have are not great, but for 22 hours of work on a crammed 747.... eh...
I was working primarily from the original prodution schematic. After getting home and looking at the video I can see where changes were made.

Wow that is great!! You should send it in to http://www.merzo.net/index.html (Starship Dimensions). I've been working on getting them to show Serenity, with the help of some fellow browncoats of course. They ask for side view and dimensions. I think this definitely fits the bill!!

That is brain-swivellingly cool!!
Especially considering the working conditions you were under!
Did you have anybody, kids maybe, looking over your shoulder? I'm picturing a crowd around you while you were making this! 
What's next? The Alliance Cruiser?
I wish you would come and have a look at Orbiter...

You could make these creations of yours actual working spacecraft!
(Of course, they'd need to be a bit lower in the poly-count
)

This site is pretty cool! I'll have to submit some images.

Just plane awesome. (Sorry, that one even made me gag...)
I sure wouldn't want to run into that ship in a darkened alley.

The Reavers are coming! Run! ^_^ Very well done. The pics look very much like the real thing. The only thing I might have done differently would have been to make the ship look a little more run down, like it was falling apart. But it is still very much awesome!
