working on this at moment, building it in Rhino3D, almost done, and then I'll do proper texturing etc

I like the sculpting. Looks like something is messing with your texture maps.
What software are you using?

oh at tha tpoint lot of it wasn't UV mapped and only simple texturing

Rhino3D v5, it rocks, so easy to use!
started with v2 waaaay back in college

Did simple turntable animation of it
note this is NOT the way it's textured/looks in my final "art" works,
this is simpler textures etc for modelling/showing the ship as I build it,
and for ease of players/DMs to see how it looks

big advantage of building ships and dungeons etc in 3D is it gives really better "feel" of how they are, helps with description/visualization

Yeah, I built models of the ships using foam-core and hot glue back in college. Figured out more accurate "Tonnage" based on them. Some ships went up. Some went down. Some were fine. But having a 3D model is fun.
I'm working on my own set when not doing other projects. Need to get back to that...
