Great looking ships thanks
BTW if you want I can tell you how to do a quick and cheep way of doing it
If you download the sfc3 mod tools thers a pdf file thats got it all (have to have max tho)
Light maps are just a gray scale of the texture applyed to the mesh(not done them my self but I think thats how there done)

I really like the TNG ships, they really remind me of the Geiger Alien shapes, very smooth and organic, very flowing, if they were in grey&black&silver they'd fit in the next Alien film. Me likey, I don't know about the vertical discs on the TMP ones, I think they'd look better rotated round 1/2pi radians (90 degrees) like the SFB Gorn, but modern. If you keep making these ships we're gonna have to have a full blown manga-SFC mod!

Thanks Guys!!!!

Sorry about all the pics

And thanks for the support
Yes more to come soon

I understand your thinking on this...I was running the Idea over in my head when I first drew the designs a while back...the reason for Vertical saucer is in its originality over tradition...I love the SFB Gorn ships, as well as the FASA stuff, and the SFC ships...but the horizontal saucers to me are much more indicative to the Feds and the Andromeans...I mean ok the Gorn first started with horizontal saucers for a good amount of time...but by the time of late TMP stuff has to change...as in most stuff in ST...
But I'll tell you this not all the ships that I designed for this Era are totally like this...I have a few Transitional designs(as well as some transition designs from this late TMP era towards the TNG stuff you see here

), that will make the change from horizontal towards vertical orientations...infact some of the BC's and DN's will have a horizontal saucer that intersects the vertical one...creating a "cross" shape in its foward view.
Also if you look at the shape of the nacelles of the TNG ships they are in a circular/disk shape

Hope that clarifies my thinking on the subjects

thanks Lestat for the suggestion and inquiry

THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE!!!
I hope to have a site I can upload them to for you guys to gain access

You may have seen my request for TMP era Gorns (dating back to almost four years ago) based on fasa designs but during the era of the FED Gorn technological exchange. Your ships are the closest I've seen so far. They are all good and some fit the bill completely. Despite your qualms for having the ships look too much like Feds with the saucers, I had envisioned them slightly more Fed like due to the exchange. I am thinking about mucking through the design process myself to achieve my vision though not until my time frees up a bit. (unless of course you beat me to it...[and it looks like you might])

Not much. I played SFB decades ago. I seem to recall reading that the Gorns and Fed signed a treaty sometime after Kirk's famous duel with the gorn captain. They exchanged technology and it resulted in Gorns using Fed hull manufacturing techniques and a few rare weapons tech sales.This is why later the Gorns and Feds aided each other a lot in the SFB timelines. I think it was official SFB material but cannot say for sure after all this time. It is possible that it was just house rules. I was going to make mine look like extreme kit bashes of the TMP connie saucer and nacelles with gorn colors, weapons and sigils but following the general silouettes of the FASA ships.

Wow-can't get over how nice these look. I like the TMP ones the best. The textures kinda look Aztec. Really cool.

Hand drawn?

Mackie, Hope you have enough bandwidth for the stampede when these babies go up.
