This is my interpretation of the USS Sulaco from the Aliens movie.
The current model consists of 116 separate objects and is currently sitting at 74,695 faces. Probably spent about 60 hours or so on it so far. All the detail shown is modeled this model currently has no materials or textures.
Rendered at 250 samples with one sun light. Blender 2.71

15 points out of 10 for great modifier use to great effect. 0 out of 10 for textures and materials, even though you said that there are none. It won't take another 60 hours to texture this, so try a bit of that.
Excellent work so far.
Thanks! I enjoy the modeling much more than texturing but I'll probably get around to it some day. I just don't relish the idea of unwrapping all those bits....
Pretty good work! I like it! :) Practically the same thing as seen in the movie!
