Going back to "school" on modelling.
I won't be churning anything out for quite some time until I've gotten my art form right. Gonna try my hand at Infinity models too. 
Cy'all around.

Oh wow, you mean Infinity that game I've been following for years with procedurally produced galaxies and "go anwhere" style of MMO play?
If that game ever comes out, I'll pay WHATEVER to have it  . Seeing the most recent gameplay videos in HD, watching a ship fly from orbit down to the surface just had me awestruck.

Yeah. The community models there are of higher polys and much higher quality. So I need to raise my (crappy and low) standards up to scratch. Gonna be a fun challenge.

It's kinda hard to tell with the first post, as it's been edited to remove the original text. Basically, these are models that Kenny made in his own time for fun. They arent' in the game, unless the devs decide to put them in.
See everyone, it's possible to answer someone WITHOUT flames .

I see. It would be awsome to see them in game.
Thanks

Bad luck. I cut and pasted all my models to another hard drive which crashed soon after. ROFL. I only have backups of a few of them on my work laptop, all in various stages of WIP.
I don't think recovery is possible. So that means, those models which I uploaded to Sendspace and provided the links to the Devs are prob the only copies left. Provided that they did DL it. If not... ROFL.....
On the bright side, I'm remodelling most of the ships with improved techniques I picked up from the web and some sites. So maybe this is a blessing in disguise.
Coming again soon, a remodelled Athena cruiser for the ICC.

Heh. Some WIP of the remodelled Athena cruiser. Still untextured. WIP. The rear and engine nozzles are not even done yet.
Learnt some ways of being more efficient with polys this time round. More details with less poly count.

The Typhon model is totally awesome.
It somehow has an "I-can-even-kick-a-station's-ass-without-any-problem"-design

Honestly, I'm digging the new athena even more than the old one. Though I'd love to see more of your unique take on the engine pylons seen on the other ships you made before. The typhon just has the most awesome backside...
Dat exhaust....

Hmm, I've completed the rear end. I'm still deciding whether to add in those 4 "pylon" or "deflectors" or not, since they were a point of contention in whether they suited the ICC theme.
This is still WIP, so input in appreciated.
Some close up of the new details
Also, I plan to make a higher poly version with more details. I do realize that DS has a poly limits on the ships.... but this is 2011, and most PCs today are capable of running much more than what the PCs of 2002 ever could.
I'm just saying.... maybe... maybe... DS can accomodate higher poly models?

Unfortunately, that model was lost too. 
It will be the next model I'll rebuild after the Athena. Problem is that due to surface complexity, they are much harder to texture this time round.
Are there any good texture artists here?
