Ive had enough of aircraft for the moment, so I have decided to have a go at a landing craft. I have also decided to break away from my usual flow and start with the normal map for a change, most of the major lumps are now there and I am now on the more subtle stuff.

I like the detail. I think the grey should be Battelship grey which has more blue in it.
What modeling program do you use?

I will have a look at the grey colour, reference has been very hard to find for this project, its gonna get dirtied up a lot so the basic colour probably isnt that important but I will check.

I used Max for this project but have used Maya in the past. To be honest the geo is quite simple and I havnt used any technique that cant be used in any 3d package.

Since you put "US" on the side here is a good reference for color.
This ship is actually about 20 miles from home and I have visited it in
person. You may also find it a good reference for other projects.
A little history.
The USS Slater was named after a sailor who was killed at the start of WWII. His brother actually served on this ship during the war.
It is the only Destroyer Escort still afloat.

That, my friend, looks really good! All you need now is a hardsurface reflection shader and it will look amazing!

Thanks Travis, I just whack my models into Marmoset this helps me avoid the temptation to keep fiddling and tweeking. Its possible to waste days on rendering. I`m going to have to call this one quits for now as I have a freelance job on with the possibilty of another in a few weeks time.

I have chucked it up on The3DStudio if anyone is interested.
