Think I should mount the second pair of engines on the wings, or perhaps on the side of the hull below the first two?

I am about to make some proposals. But we will need to have a 'go' from Kildor for this.

Any one of those is doable, but I don't like the look of it with engines on the forward hull. :-\

Lord Drake, the UFO has three undercarriage, not four. One of them is under pilots` cockpit, and two other are under the wings.

Ah, okay, I'll fix that.

Edit: Fixed. Have we figured out where the extra engines are going?

Lord Drake, I just noticed your question in the edit. Check in with ShipIt over at this thread. He'll decide the final positioning there.

In the future, go ahead and make a new post instead of editing your last post. An edited post doesn't show up in the list of new posts so it's easy for people to miss it.

I´am still waiting for Kildor to give a green light.

In general it seems he (and most other people, too) likes the 'behind wings' version most, so I guess we will go with this one.

Okay, as soon as he settles on something I can get to work.

I need a better texture then the one I'm using now though. x.x

Dimensions won't match up perfectly, but I can get it roughly the same size.
Did Kildor decide to go with this setup?

It doesn´t need to hit the dimensions exactly of course.

Yes, let them be «behind the wings».

If you're worried about making the texture, you can probably do a lot of copying and pasting small little bits of green and other pieces from another texture. Just make sure when you unwrap the model that you don't have any bad stretching.
