It sounds like you're not in the right area of Carraa. You should be seeing this when you're modifying the settings for a particle emitter. Read the manual, please, for the sake of my thread going off topic.
Ok, and thanks a million Lechnology! You've helped us a TON!!! We'll make sure to notify you as soon as some shots come out of your help in action!
Guess no feedback on what to do with the midsection so I went with the exhaust ports.
Updated the front cannon tip
Engine Thrusters. Don't mind the holes, that's just LDView not rendering properly on some unofficial parts.
Hull plating added along with gun turrets (anyone else ever thought of using the key piece as a gun barrel?) and 14 days of animation and cuing explosion marks and 30+ hours rendering:
The middle pic isn't of my favorites but the bottom one looks pretty awesome.
Wow. That was awesome. Nice animation.

It looked fabulous, but the only things I saw that I didn't like as much were that they didn't seem to be quite the right texture as to make them look plastic, and the sparks when the blue fighter was spinning were rather fake looking.

Just to be sure so I'm not messing with the wrong area
The spark right there when the bullet hit or the trailing smoke?
I actually liked that.
Yes, I mean those sparks coming from the fighter in that frame.
Yeah, it's one of the drawbacks of Carrara's particle system, it's not flexible to certain things like having an explosion particle system generated where and when another particle dies or collides with something. What you're seeing is the re-spawn setting enabled for when a particle collides with something. Those are actually tiny bullets flying out. I mainly did it to enhance lighting. They'll be scaled down further in future renderings.
Ok, if it was scaled down it would probably look much better.
