    We all know you hate the ending of Mass Effect 3, but you can still appreciate some of the magnificent detail that went into the game. Particularly the ships of the game. So here I give you some of my works in progress. Still have to color and add engines to most of these ships, but I will get there eventually.

    I also have the Geth Dreadnaught and the Geth fighter that I will be putting in here soon enough once more progress is made on them. :3

    Maya 2013. Yes they can, but you start loosing detail when you do that. The reapers and the normandy are all well below 1/3 scale.

    Full scale? An hour. That scale, 5 minutes.

    Joeliosis, technicaly they are not OMGTheMuffinMan's creations.
    No offense to OMGTheMuffinMan.
    I have lots of respect in regards to the script he wrote to convert models into SE compatible ships.
    (And I especialy like how the second reaper turned out)

    But alot of people worked hard on those ship designs, and its at the very least rude to call them his creations.

    First, let me say those look AMAZING! I don't quite understand how you are making them though? Are you getting models from the Mass Effect game files and running a script to convert them for SE? I have been trying to build the Normandy for some time, but everytime I do, it looks terrible (I'm really not very artistic). Would you be willing to share how you do this? The hull design is what I always have trouble with, I can slap some thrusters on!

    Am I able to take these ships in SEtoolbox and reimport them as small ship blocks or smaller scale?
