I managed to sneak in the mantis into work today as most of the people are out and I have done more texturing.

Progress has stopped recently as it was my brothers wedding on Saturday and was best man so I was getting ready the week before. When we had the wedding and got back home I was in bed with food poisoning and only just started to get some strength back.

I hope your feeling better Cpt, All the best.

Managed to get some work done tonight, I was mapping some areas and found some uneeded polys and after redoing the bridge section I have managed to get the tris down to 15k as it was 18k before. Done some work on the deflector and the rear hull.

I love the warp nacelles. kinda refreshingly different!
And the upper shuttle bay (I guess it is one) looks freaking awesome!!!
