Model 1: Spaceship with more details

          Today, I decided to add a propeller into my engine so that it will look better (Figure 1). I saw this method from a classmate and tried it. It worked well and I am happy with the result. I can say that it add more attraction to my spaceship. I just made one of it then duplicate it with the Mirror tool. By applying the Align tool and Move tool, the propellers sitted in the right position.

Total Polys: 4, 542
Total Verts: 3, 912

          I also learned something today about the Layers and applied it into my work. Beside grouping the same elements, it is better to put them into layer like we are doing in Photoshop. Layers make the objects put into an invisible plane so that it will be easier to manipulate object and to speed up the rendering time.
