First attempt at modeling

[tansytansey]

I'd like to suggest two things:

Firstly, before you start modelling a ship, you should ask yourself which faction you want to build a ship for, and which purpose will your ship fill. Maybe even draw some concept pictures. It helps keep the ships looking consistant with existing Freelancer ship lines.

Secondly:

OMG MODELLING IN MILKSHAPE?!

BURN IT! BURN IT!

Milkshape is a horrible program. Avoid it like the plague. Unfortunately it's the only program we have that exports to CMP so we're forced to use it at some point, but modelling and texturing should be done with some of the better programs out there, like 3DS Max if you can get your hands on a copy, legally or otherwise. Otherwise there's always many others like Metasequoia, hell even Gmax. Just don't use Milkshape!
