Concordia Close to Setting Sail

callitri has finished his extremely detailed Concordia Supercruiser model. The ship stands at about two million polygons, so there's quite a bit of interior geometry clean-up going on to optimize the model, but the exterior shape is solid. callitri has tried to share the actual file, but the size is prohibitive at the moment. This was made in Google Sketchup, which is quite impressive. Up next are textures and possibly a starbase environment for the ship to dock in.

I have only 4 gigabytes of memory and when I load the full ship I can barely work on it. Would love to make a shipyard of sorts and to make the other smaller type ships in the fleet: destroyers cruisers and such based on the Concordia's design but that's a long term plan. I am looking for some metal looking texture to start texturing it myself. I know nothing about it so I hope I can import whatever I find into Google and paint it there. :p
