OK...
This is something that will mess with your head...The mesh is new...but the Textures are from some of my other Fed ships

The shape has haunted me for a while now(about 10-12 years)...But I wanted to see it come to some kind of fruition
So I guess it is kinda a kitbashes...but not meshwise...just canibalizing textures

Hope you like some aspect of her

Hear is the Zip if anyone wants her...wor wants to tweak her to their liking

Well I certainly like it, bravo for another original design!

Steelviper33 · « **Reply #2 on:** July 18, 2003, 05:26:17 pm »

A Very unorthidox design, but id expect nothing else from Atolm
It looks cool as hell...i look forward to blowing her up using the Hellions.

Very good desingn.....but, imagine the long walk to go from one saucer to another!!!!!

Just joking.

Thanks

MAKE MORE!!!!!

I like it!!

One thought though, not a complaint or anything...how about lengthen the 2ndary hull a little...then she can be a new "Hammerhead" class?

Has anyone made a class for the Feds that is called "Hammerhead"? - was wondering that yesterday, how peculiar!

Mackie · « **Reply #7 on:** July 18, 2003, 06:39:48 pm »

I have. -but thats not textured either so go on... :/
too weird model for my taste though :}

Klingon Fanatic · « **Reply #8 on:** July 18, 2003, 06:42:25 pm »

BUMP!

Is this an Andorian or Vulcan design for the Feds?

A+ for originality!

Qapla!

Too weird for you?!? LOL, that's hard to believe...you have some strange (but very cool) designs.

E_Look · « **Reply #11 on:** July 18, 2003, 10:21:09 pm »

If you put a third saucer on it, you could call it the Porthos class and it could be used to guard the Wormhole or some other such dimensional gateway so that no more purple cockroach ships come over to the Alpha Quadrant! So you've got to load it up with hardpoints so that the Shapeless Ones can't sneer, "It's bark is worse than it's bite!"

James Formo · « **Reply #12 on:** July 18, 2003, 10:34:15 pm »

hmm-at 1st I honestly didn't like it. The design aspect I mean. But I keep checking it out and its growing on me.

Maybe its so different I need time to digest it

It definitly pushes the envelope, at that is always a good thing. The original enterprise must have looked pretty far out at 1st look, back in the 60's. But someone decided to use it as the model for TOS at thus it became canon. Then everyone kinda jumped on the bandwagon, so from then all an ST ship had to have a round saucer and 2 warp drives. Then the saucer became an elipse. Really not to radical over 40 years or so of ST ship design. This is kinda refreshing like the sensation you get from biting into a York peppermint pattie

LOL! I can see how that woud haunt you over time... it may not be your favorite, but you just kept finding yourself thinking about it! I know how that is too:) It very original, very ideallistic- don't ever let anyone take that away from you Azel- its too too rare a commoditiy!!!!!

starforce2 · « **Reply #14 on:** July 19, 2003, 02:42:10 am »

is that supposed to be USS Orthos, or did you misplace the P?

Mackie · « **Reply #15 on:** July 19, 2003, 04:40:08 am »

ok ok now i like it, the last time i looked at it i was a bit hung over

Terradyhne · « **Reply #16 on:** July 19, 2003, 10:47:28 am »

thats a nice design, verry different but cool, never seen before such a cool new shipdesign

laser66 · « **Reply #17 on:** July 19, 2003, 09:00:13 pm »

Well it is original...I'll give him that

Azel · « **Reply #18 on:** July 19, 2003, 11:02:26 pm »

Totslly not the responses I was expecting...lol
Thanks Guys for the support

Azel · « **Reply #19 on:** July 20, 2003, 08:59:48 am »

If you guys want I may release the experiment prototype version too
If you want

Atrahasis · « **Reply #20 on:** July 20, 2003, 09:05:18 am »

That is unusual but beautiful with a touch of grace, and nicely modeled to boot. Well done.

Azel · « **Reply #21 on:** July 20, 2003, 09:33:06 am »

Wow...thank you sir

Steelviper33 · « **Reply #22 on:** July 20, 2003, 12:44:13 pm »

will soon be available with light maps, a break mod, and cleaner neck textures

Not to mention a kitbash

sandman69247 · « **Reply #23 on:** July 20, 2003, 01:48:54 pm »

Can't wait!! BTW, how are you going to hp it? Doesn't seem to fit anything ingame, and I can see it having alot of weapons. Looks like it could take on a Klink DN or BB and hardly break a sweat. In other words, I want it, I want it, I want it.

Azel · « **Reply #24 on:** July 20, 2003, 10:57:32 pm »

Thanks Viper!!!!

Sorry no HP's don't know how:(

Mackie · « **Reply #25 on:** July 21, 2003, 12:35:16 am »

well it certainly looks better in mod viewer than it does in those pics

Azel · « **Reply #26 on:** July 21, 2003, 10:38:12 pm »

Wow a Believer...lol
Thanks mackie...its true that the screenshots don't do the ship justice:)

Now I am just waiting for my man Steelviper to just finish up the
prototype version(which in my oppinion is prettier than the production model

)
and they will be posted up for re download

Thanks Viper

Azel · « **Reply #27 on:** July 22, 2003, 07:11:23 pm »

bump for Steelviper

Azel · « **Reply #28 on:** July 29, 2003, 08:40:33 pm »

OK got it...Pics of the prototype testbed will be up by tomorrow night
hopefully with a zip too

Khaliban · « **Reply #29 on:** July 29, 2003, 11:58:49 pm »

The Ettin Class?

It's funny if you played D&D.

Reverend · « **Reply #30 on:** July 30, 2003, 07:34:46 am »

Azel · « **Reply #31 on:** August 01, 2003, 01:44:25 pm »
