Right, i got it all done, just need a save with that version of highwind to test it.
And hey, this is your first model, right? its pretty epic for a first one, i like how you've done it. the textures arent the best in the world, but you've set them up properly (i.e UV map and texture on top) and at least you can do some stuff with photoshop or whatever.
i do seem to recall a problem with multicoloured-ness, i'll research it if need be.
so yeah, anyone mind sending me a save with this highwind?
