Default Thanks

I am now working on how to round it more AND to apply colors and such. But thanks for the info. Do you know of any tutorials on motion and applying the colors and decals?

Yes, if you can't find it here on SLW, the Newtek website http://www.newtek.com/lightwave/tutorials/index.php has a lot of tutorials on it, also you can do a search for Free Lightwave Tutorials and it should bring up a list of sites where you can find what you're looking for. If not let me know and I'll post some images on how to do the decals part of it, the motion part would be a little more involved. Keep up the good work!!!

You might want to have a look at this tutorial as well in regard to building Star Trek ships in Lightwave

http://www.trekmania.net/art/tutorial_1.htm

Also worth looking at is this website:
http://www.meshweaver.com/

This contains a tutorial for the aztec patterns as well as a few Star Trek ship models to download and take a look at.

Default Thx

Thanks for the website but,,worst thing about it is..I am using light 9.0 and the interface is JUST different enough that I have alot of difficulty using an older tutorial. However I am trying it and I am thankful for the heads up.
Me and some friends accross the internet are starting work on a ST fan film and need all the help we can get.
