Thanks for the kind comments, guys.
Anthony : I know.. You just can't win when it comes to spaceships. I showed it to a friend last night and the first thing he said was "You've totally ripped off Babylon 5". And I've never even seen Babylon 5. Strangely I didn't even notice that it looked like an X-Wing until you mentioned it.
Semar : It was modelled, UV-mapped and textured all within 3dsMax 5. Yes that includes the texture. I applied shaders, set up some lights and rendered to a texture. It's wasteful on UV space on some models, but it worked quite well for this model.
