I didn't know polygon handles edge turning for you. Thats pretty nice.
I had trouble downloading intact .rars from that link, but I found a mirror, and im watching the 2nd one now. A quality tutorial. Thanks for the advice.

Honestly, that doesn't look very bad if it were simply a VERY basic concept sketch.
My map Soli Deo Gloria started out in a similar way.
That model by itself is in no way useable but what I would probably do is take a screenshot or two of that and paintover it in photoshop or painter to create a worthwhile concept sketch and then build a useable model based on that sketch. And build it from scratch.

just my pair of pennies.

And, of course, listen to everyone else too. they're smart.

I stretched, twisted, bent, booleaned, and symmetricated various high poly primatives, trying to get something that resembles alien technology, and I liked this one the best

Does it look potentially covenant to you? Any suggestions for making it more covenantish?

I'v really got to say this i've read the whole thread and no one has pointed it out. but even if this is a ship or whatever you call it, it isnt even aero dynamic in the slightist. I might be looking at it in the wrong angle.
And good job you are actually listening to people. I started like you infact i was worse, my old shitty gun from halo oh my god. Once you get good you'll look back at this thread and you'll think what a complete pile of shit

It certainly isn't very covenant looking, now that I've seen more covenant ships than just the cruisers. No matter, I'm attempting to model Devrous's frigate instead. From a sphere, btw :P XD
