Description
This one took as long to model as it did to render. 2:30 modelling, 2:30 rendering. (2 hours, I'm not THAT fast)I'm sure theres a better way of doing it but this way was more fun. Everything but the floor, the green wires, the turbines and the cyllinders between the turbines and the wings is one object. It started out as a filetted cube. It looked RETARDED at first. I decided to try to find practical, or atleast cool-looking, uses for matrix extrude in cinema 4d. The front part with the yellow lights is a matrix, the purple grid was originally a matrix and the back purple is a grid. Almost everything else is inner extrude without preserve groups and normal extrude.
That cube has a LOT of selection groups. They should really make multiline tag holders for cinema 4d.. yeesh.
Edit: The cube in the bottom right is to represent the basis of everything I did. It shows how I inner extruded and extruded just about every face on the ship then put selection groups on different parts for the texturing.

It takes no skill... just a lot of time and being really bored

hehe, if you look closely, the turbine part of the engine is actually really lazy. One matrix extrude

Very nice job man. I would almost like to watch over you as you create this in Cinema4d so I can see it done, you know so I can see it to believe it lol. Very cool how you found some good uses with the matrix extrude feature. You have a good imagination man. Keep it up. BTW was this originally the idea/image you had in mind?

Yeah, it is pretty much. Only things I wanted to do differently is have a spacescape as a background and have flames behind it. But for lack of a pyrocluster plugin I couldn't.. so I'm pretty happy about that. And i'm gonna edit the description to talk about the cube now.
