Very nice work! This reminds me that I need to post my Moldy Crow CG model and paper model kit. As obsessed with the Crow as I am, I think both will meet your expectations.

Thanks a lot. I've been tempted to replay DF for a while now. Did you know a modding group is remaking the game a as a mod for Jedi Academy? It looks pretty good. Check it out here: [link]
Anyway, thanks for the comment. I'm glad you like it.

Very cool, I'll definitely check it out, the original game did have some limitations.

It's true, but it was quite a versatile engine at the time.

Now, this is the Moldy Crow from Dark Forces! Excellent work, pal!

Love the Moldy Crow, very underrated ship from the EU.
Very well done.

Thanks a lot, man. I'm pretty happy with the way it all turned out, but I feel like there's still some room for improvement...

Unless you work for Pixar, there is probably still room for improvement! But you seem to have come a long way in a really short period of time!

Hey, don't knock Klaymen! Honestly, I still don't know how I could do the basic model any better (he does need some more texture, and a real pose, though). But I see your point.
I'd like to try and expand into making more fluid models... The Crow was a relatively boxy ship, so a boxy model works okay... but I'd like to hone my skills in making more fluid designs.
Thanks for all your support, man.

Ya, a LOT of 3D artists REALLY struggle to transition to organic modeling. I think that for many 3D types they model in a more left-brain, logical sense. But organic modeling requires more of a right-brain, artistic approach. I think the REALLY good modelers out there can kind of switch back and forth. My first experience modeling anything in 3D was using AutoCAD! So for me it has been a real struggle to get out of that logical mindset and into a more artistic one.
I will be interested to see your progression into organics, though!
(Sorry for knocking Klaymen!!!)

Haha, don't worry about it. I've got another project in mind right now, but eventually, I'll get back to Klaymen.

Wewt! Good to see the ol' Crow! Was very sad when she got the boot in DF2.
A bit hard to see all the stars in the backdrop; makes it look a bit empty. The text seems a little intrusive- I'da made it smaller and moved it to a corner.

The text does look nice, I just think the position is wrong.
The high-rez version looks much nicer. The stars are just a bit small, methinks, and got lost when the image was resized.
And at least the Raven's Claw was a sexy-enough replacement! I still miss the Crow at times...

Duly noted on both counts. I'll play around a bit, see if I can find something I like more. I wouldn't mind trying to vary the sizes/brightnesses of the starts a bit more.
Yeah, the Raven's Claw was okay, but it's just not the Crow...

Not bad. At a guess its based off of the Crow in Dark Forces since it lacks the wear and tear of the Dark Forces 2 Crow. i like the detail that was added to the wings(?).
Funny I always thought it was Nadine.
