Lol, the blue elite looks like he's just laughing at everyone. Nice job, but the yellow elite looks kinda distorted or something.

I was going to say spikey. It looks good though

Yeah, I blame Gmax.

It looks marginally better now I smoothed them all, though.

Yeah, but the yellow elite look kinda retarded lol. But the rest of it looks awesome.

YAY SMOOTHING!

I'll play with the textures to try get them looking less crap later, maybe.

Wow, just doing that made it a hundred times better. Very Nice

Would deffinatly be better if it was rendered in 3ds max with bumps. Oh well. It looks pretty good for taking a screen cap. Be really cool if you could ge it rendered with lighting and bump mapping. Nice job anyways, I can't do that.

I'm seeing about finding someone who can render and do some terrain

For gmax its pretty good.

i'm not sure about gmax's rendering capabilites but they all need bumpmaps, reflection, maps diffuse all that fancy stuff. it looks so bland

Doesn't mean they can't have one in max

Bump mapping is hard to master, though. Took me about a day.
