Ok, I've had a shot at making some ships. I admit that these are just the objects. They aren't the right file type or anything. They also aren't textured.

Spire class base:

This is a base which is meant to be absolutley huge, about as tall as a planet. It's a bit out of proportion, yes, but still.

Ray, Bounty Hunter Cruise interceptor:

The name basically says it all, I intended this as a Cruise Interceptor for the Bounty Hunters.

Hoplite, Corsair Medium Scout:

Again, the name says it all, I intended this as a Corsair medium scout.

look good, although as for textures i may be able to assist with that o.0 i think you can apply textures with milkshape3d, if you convert the base files and save the textures... i think ill try that out and see if i can set textures up for your base, maybe ships xD (if you dont want me to, ill just do it for fun anyways )

Like the looks of the base would be able to see that from about 20K at least. 

The CI for the Bounty Hunters looks great and still sticks to the original looks,would also make a good looking Bomber to possibly let the Hammerhead take another role.

The Hoplite looks a little unique to me, but in black and white it is hard to say. May look better once some textures are added.

Firstly, let me say well done for taking the initiative to start on making objects like bases and ships. Many people talk about how they'd like to do X or Y in modding/building, but few actually get into it. Kudos to you.

I like the idea/build for the base, I'd have to see it modelled/textured to say for sure whether I truly like it but the concept looks good.

I'm not a fan of either of the two ships. Neither one feels like it embodies the line that you're attempting to make them from. e.g. the BH one doesn't feel like BH and the Corsair one (i'm a Corsair at heart so maybe I'm being too critical...) really doesn't tie into the line at all, IMO. This could change from a proper model being shown and/or texturing, but from what you're showing I'm not an overall fan of them. You could consider taking the body structure from the Corsair/BH ships and modifying that so they tie in a bit better, perhaps..

Edit: Not meaning to sound too terribly critical. Sorry if I'm coming off that way. Just giving constructive feedback, as best as I can.

[Janson]

lol Ramirez, but i would say that despite ship improvement, i think the base is pretty good. also i think it may need more docking spaces... or not.

either way i think its a good start to modelling xD

[Relick]

That base is awesome. I also agree that they will all look better with textures, because at the moment I can't tell which is the front or back of the Hoplite .

[Janson]

hmm... it occurs to me that i think the admin team should put up a thread for uploading model ideas, renders, and whatnots along with a list of ships still needed to complete some of the sets (like the BH ships are missing lots) and maybe for bases too.

anyhow i think ima try my hand at this modeling stuff

That Spire base could be pretty wicked looking if finished and textured appropriately. Cool design and I'll second what Ramz said about taking the initiative to learn this. It's no easy task lol. Nice work man

Is it possible for someone to send me the Corsair and BH textures?

[Felix.Kelly]

Yup, its been said, base good...ships not so much. But either way its a great start! Keep it up man!

[Janson]

i can (if you can tell me how to send it to ya), but i noticed when i tried to put them on my own model, they got all stretched out and generally screwed up.

[Blackrain]

Yeah, but I found out how to put on images one at a time on Wings. Can you just send them to me as an image?

[Janson]

not really... their .dds files so i cant upload them to photobucket (i dont think ill try)
and maybe you can link how you figured that out?

[Blackrain]

I used the image plane object.

[Janson]

really? for your spire? i want to see it 
ok here they are, from the Triarius. btw i want to know if you get them to work and how if you do
