With the help of TheBigCheese the BaQ is well on it's way to completion, so to honor my word, the next ship I'll make is a Romulan battlecruiser, the D'Xorac...

EDIT: Changed to links for the "image impared"

Tis a pity that Nightsoft is down atm, I was looking forward to seeing this!

Indeed it looks very classy, kinda reminds me of Thu11s' Firehawk but more TNG. What era is she? And what's the polycount on her at the mo'?

Captain KoraH · « **Reply #3 on:** July 17, 2003, 12:14:58 am »

Raven usually makes up all the in game data for the ships, but I'd say this one is somewhere between TMP and TNG. Remember this is a very early WIP, the poly count is 810 right now. I think I'm going to have to get creative with the underside of this one. No visible nacelles.

once a week is still pretty bad- LOL! Just kidding...:)

Heh looks like it's down right now.

Cheese if you want you can texture this one too. I'll post another WIP now, but it can't be seen until Nightsoft comes back up again :P

She's up to 985 polys

Cool

Oh and check your mail

The last three pics are not on the server. I am posting a link to the changes I am looking for in this model compared with the current model.........i realize it is a wip, and I hope this is good timing to make changes.

Oh, and on the Baq, the nacelle glows are green, and the shade of the ship is slighly lighter than the current shade.

Here is the pic of the dxorac with my notes.......i can make facing drawings if I have to, or you can send me the model to play with.

TheBigCheese · « **Reply #10 on:** July 17, 2003, 02:32:08 pm »

Thats a beautiful design

Captain KoraH · « **Reply #11 on:** July 17, 2003, 05:05:15 pm »

Several days ago I asked for more info about this ship but I never got a reply, so I decided to wing it. I have plans to add struts from the head to the body already anyway, but the way you describe the bottom wing, it sounds like this ship is pretty much just a revamped Warbird, which is dissapointing. I may just finish this model as-is and call it something else, as I have no interest in doing yet another Warbird spinoff. I pictured this ship as somethign different... oh well, [censored] happens I guess. No harm done Raven.

Raven Night · « **Reply #12 on:** July 17, 2003, 07:16:33 pm »

?

Ok, I am guessing that you did not like the changes. I suppose aside from the nacelles in the wing spears anything else is negotiable. Do what you may and let's see how it looks.

Looking at your progress sofar, I can see where you are going. Just make the main body slimmer, and do with the bottom what you will. All I ask is that the nacelles are in the wingtip spears as shown, and that that is the only place that the wings touch. What you do with the rest of the body is your perogative........remember, I can always play with the mesh when you are done, like I did with the BaQ.

Captain KoraH · « **Reply #13 on:** July 18, 2003, 12:12:36 am »

You have every right to get your ships exactly the way you want them, don't let me take away from that. I just had a different impression of this ship based on the drawing. I really like the wingtip nacelles though, that's pretty clever. I'll go ahead and finish this one for the experience of it. I've got other Nightsoft models that I plan to work on. I think I'll try one of the Tholians next.

Hey Cheese, how'd you like to texture a Tholian?

Reverend · « **Reply #14 on:** July 18, 2003, 12:47:24 pm »

Keep us posted, Cap'n Korah!

TheBigCheese · « **Reply #15 on:** July 18, 2003, 01:13:16 pm »

Tholian, that should be easy

Kaenyne · « **Reply #16 on:** July 18, 2003, 01:50:08 pm »

Yeah, more WIPs PLEASE!

I'm excited about this one and the Klingon you're making!

Captain KoraH · « **Reply #18 on:** July 18, 2003, 07:13:36 pm »

I'll let you have a copy of the mesh when it's done Manitoba.

Here are the latest WIP's

starforce2 · « **Reply #19 on:** July 19, 2003, 02:38:58 am »

you know, this would fit well with the thulls/atra/ganymead firehawk. Raven, perhaps you should do a version textured in that theme too...
