A High-Poly (396K) Destroyer Model.
This was a joint project between myself and Blend Swap user YAZJACK . I did the mesh and he did the textures. My job was easier, I think. He had to unwrap, bake, and paint a 400K mesh :)

p> NOTE: Due to size considerations, this file contains ONLY the mesh and unwrapped UVs. Texture pack is available Here

Beauty Shot Cartoon Version Composite Shot Blueprints
And a few WIP pics from the build/texturing:
Finally, a couple of videos. A lousy one by me:

Very nice!

Wow, it is great to see incredible texturing work that is able to match such fantastic modeling! Now I must come up with a short film idea so that I may use this masterpiece somehow!
gregzaal
Super impressive as usual sir :D and really great texturing from Jack! Any idea what your next project will be?
KuhnIndustries
Thanks... Doing a couple of smaller projects at the moment, but no ideas for the next big one. Suggestions?

A city perhaps? That's always been one of the things I've been impressed with the most - cg cities that aren't obviously generated by some script :) I'm pretty free these days, so if you'd like me to help out on the texturing+comp stuff, I'd be happy to.

This is really an amazing piece of work men. The amount of work that went into the detailing has to be staggering. You should really consider doing a tutorial series on this ship. I for one (of many I suspect) would be willing to pay for a series like this. From concept to texturing would be epic I think.
KuhnIndustries
Thanks a lot...
There are a few tutorials on the modeling side, actually. As it happens, I just posted a free one on YouTube here:

It's not as detailed as the this model, but most of the techniques are the same. I have also written an e-book on sci-fi modeling here:

Finally, there is a fantastic tutorial series by Jonathan Williamson on Blender Cookie here:

On the texturing side, you'll have to defer to my partner YAZJACK (see link in description). I have no idea how that man does his stuff :)

Hey thanks alot man. I do in fact have the Vehicle Modeling Series and posted the untextured result with materials only in the Gallery. About the E-Book thing, is that available in PDF, and if not do you know if it can be converted to PDF. I have Acrobat Pro. If I can convert it I'll go ahead and buy it.

This is really first rate work, Chris! Would you be interested in further collaborations on some scifi models?
KuhnIndustries
Always, man... shoot me a message :)

This model is awesome! Is the texture pack somewhere new now that blendswap changed the database?
pandoramachine
Ha! Derp! I answered my own question: http://www.blendswap.com/blends/view/64610 There's the texture pack.
bluezald
so much awesomeness for one blend. great!

Thank you very much for sharing this wonderful model. I bought your e-book and it is very useful, well written, a little over my head (but I'll get past that and it won't be), and the e-book was a great deal!! I had fun rendering Perun with Octane. I had to export the 4 pieces to get the UV mapping and such into Octane. My Blender skills are poor to none, but I intend to change that. You guys INSPIRE!! Thank you for that. My render is at DA.. http://pfrancke.deviantart.com/art/Perun-Destroyer-356627903 if you want a look-see, I don't think I did your model justice. I am slowly learning with miles to go. Thank you again.
KuhnIndustries
That's awesome work, dude. I love it, especially the compositing
Archill
I downloaded the model, but it only contained UV-maps for the back.
