And here is the New UPDATE as of today (28/2/2004)
Here is the final textured head, i had quite a great deal of problems with it and the UVs, so i had to detach it from the joints, then create the UVs, then add the blend shapes and finally attach and make the weights and set driven keys for animating the expressions :) all over again XP.. But it was worth it :)

Well, here is another update...
I think im pretty much done with modeling the ship, now i have to put more time on the textures... though i dont think theyll change that much... well see.
I also reworked the Alien quite a bit, i changed his shoes and am texturing the suit... will post more of him when i have something to show.
Mean While here are the ship's renders..
Enjoy
Critts and comments wellcome

Here is the finished texture job on the Alien, i still want the suit to be made out of an alien cow.... but these look more like an army suit rather than a cow :roll: though i like the "B" one more, lets see which one you like the most.

This is an early test animation i did
Its only 260k, but it was encoded with windows movie maker 2. so you might need to update if your not using Windows XP
Please, critts and comments are welcome.

Heeeh, funny to see this thread has 230 or so times been read and only two replyes other than me.... (EDIT) correction. 330 views.
Anyway, Here is an update on the COW
The Textures are not the final ones, they are only basic 3D paint tooled inside maya so i have it easy in photoshop.
The facial control system is at 80% done, i still need a few expressions to be added.
Also im done with the ship, i fixed some of the textures and made a few adjustments and additions.
Of course itll look much better with propper lightning, right now it has the default ilumination from maya (That means cero lights have been added).
im allways open to Critts and Comments :)

An UPDATE
I was thinking that if i get good quality animation and overall look, i wanted to know what where the possibilities of sending this to animation festivals, what are the requirements and all.
Anyway, The update.
Im finishing the Set and i will be making some animation this week, mostly the entyre intro secuence with the ship and the sets.
In the following images youll see two partial renders of the Set, and a quick test of the set with the ship.
I still am going to add some vegetation near the water, fix some of the textures and see how am i going to create the ripples in the water while the ship is flying over it.
And of course the engine heat and was thinking in adding some birds or insects flying around in the set.
Any Thoughts and advise would be really appreciated.

UPDATE
I fixed many things and am adding some new stuff, but i would like your oppinion.
Which one do you like the most, the one with the "flowers" or the simple one?
I tryed with grass and bushes, but they clutered the view and the ship lost a great deal of attention, so i desided to go with something less complicated...what do you think?
