Hi guys! I'm very like to make models (I think I started from 7 years or about that). About half year ago I found this site... But then university, exams and etc... And now I decided to make some model. I've read some topics to chose one... and decided to make kushan carrier, (thanks to Auris and his great tutorial, but I like this too (= )... Ive printed it... and then thought "Hm... what if will make this textures better?"... And its begun... First I thought, that textures will be only for my model, but then I've read about RW mod and i decided not to be selfish (= and who nows... May be you'll like it (= Here is the example pic: You can see thats there is no lights, some paint, and some parts undone yet (am... you cant clearly see them except, that big brown thing)... Should I continue my work? Some advices will definitely help (= What do you think? PS Hm... I've wrote that [glow=blue,2,300]HOMEWORLD[/glow] best game ever? (=

It's looking wonderful! If you make it available to the community, it might be the dawn of the new homeworld paperstarships era, as the main flaw of these ships is the low quality textures -I mean, these are wonderful ingame, but too pixelated when we're talking about paper models-

My high-quality setting on my printer is pretty good, if you mean printing quality. If you're doing something to make the textures better, could you tell us what exactly you're doing?

The Glove Ofcource I am! (= great game... Am... You mean from the blank list? Then yes... Layer by layer... Original texture was like a map. I just used it to know, how it should look (= And about topic. I've finished one of the sections (upper one) still work to do (alot... he-he) But here what I've got: Well as you can see, its upper section... (= I,ve deleted line, that was in center of the hull (but it can cause some problems later) Although I've made easy changing color themes (If you you know Photoshop... but if you dont, I think it would be big problem too) Oh yeah... I've although made some changes (I just thought, that in some places there should be no "white stripes") I just cant find my HW disc... so... so. Maby later I will make more changes... Well... I've got more sections to remake PS can some one help me to get original textures? (=

NOW I SEE IT!!! EXELENT TEXTURING!
It all looks a bit smoother. Can I get a mesh with a Deep purple and deep blue texturing.
The purple beeing a little deeper then the current picture texturing and the blue being about the same.
