A: I like it
B: the old one was CPU demanding? how many polygons did it use. afaik, a model needs like 3000 polygons at the least to be cpu demanding O_o

Yeah cpu was taking time to work trhough it.(10 k lol)
I reapplied the textures from the same battlestar.
I hope i didnt did to much harm to geometry.

nice!
IMO the texture needs a bit of work, like on the "eyes", front part of hull, etc
but very good!

No offence but the texture looks pretty bad

Not to mention wrong texture detailing.
Maybe this could be useful to you:

first of all tx for all comment.
Besides that i am on a 10 inch screen learning gimp, ther is no excuse why i just applied old texture to the new model.
Well i think i could improve by start texturing step by step with own texture here. I should create more piece in hart to not force me end up pretty fast with something i want. So basically i should take stuff more step by step.
I think i will give this a try again. I really feel like i am not getting the real picture here. My uv map is basically this way setup that it is very hard to maintain vertical stripes in the texture for example. I basically want it to fast.
I could post a uv map if that might be a wrong startingpoint in some way. I need to take texturing more serieus.

How come your on a 10" screen? I personally think my 37" 1080p LCD is far too small for texturing

quit bragging about your screen no one is impressed. I have a 56 inch tv I can plug my computer into what now? I can texture on a 10 inch screen, if I had to I could texture on a ds sized screen punch yourself now.
