Looks cool, but for critique? I imagined it as being smaller... the boom's torpedo rails need to be longer too.

I'll d/l it and look at it when I get home... but if I make a better drawing of this ship, could anyone bash me another version?

25th annaversary is special to me because I learned how to read from that game :D And I spent countless hours blowing up the one elassian ship in 'Hijack".

It's a matter of perception, I matched the length of the booms against the screen capture that I got from ingame.  And try it ingame, you'll find it being a bit smaller ship.  I scaled it against the TOS Connie to get it the size that it is...
..ooOOoo..totally useless information..ooOOoo..

I might be persuaded to do the mesh if someone is willing to do the textures

Well, I'll load it up later tonight and give it a spin. Frankly anything's better than that new OP DD....

Still, I think I'll make another post for this one with some sketched. I'm an artist too... let's see if anyone would like to bash/model my ships (Since I have no modling skills whatsoever...)

Oh, and anyone got a challenger?

I might be persuaded to do the latter... I could see me putting some skin on these clothes.  ;)

Here's one I wonder if anyone can find. It's not that hard actually, even MP can do it.

The Tholian TK5.

And if it isn't so much trouble, could someone make some mods replacing the boom on the D7 (and D2 D5) with Tholian command modules?

One of the Steves made some SSDs based on the concept of the Tholians seizing a shipyard from the klingons and using the aft hulls. I'd like to see that.

You want a web spinner attached to the front of a d7 secondary hull ?

Actually I'd rather see the novel TK5...

Didn't Breezegone post models of some of the neo-Tholian ships, which included different command modules? If i were doing this myself I'd be retexturing the aft hull and replaing the boom with these modules. Then again, with no Tholians ingame...

Here's a good pic of the TK5...


You could also try meshing a T-PC with the current ingame KA F5 to see how that works out.

What does that one look like ?

As for these other 2 I can put the Thol on a D7 but it won't look like that. The lil ship I believe I can reproduce no problemo, but retexturing is up to you.  ;)

My bad... I guess I wasn't clear...

In the pic above, the larger ship is an N-BB... a Neo-Tholian Battleship in SFU. The little guy next to him is the Tk5- an F5 with a Tholian PC gradted on the nose (Since the F5's boom got away).

A shame the Tholians aren't in-game, otherwise flying around in the TK5 would be awesome.

As for the other 'requests'- well, someone had an idea of what Tholian-klingon derivatives would look like.

Erhm... in SFB, the entire front end of the klingon ship can disengadge. So can the 'diamond' part of the NBB above. So, switch the boom with the command module (Diamond) and you have some new ships.

I wondered what a PC grafted on a SFC/KA f5 would look like, but I don't have the modling skills to pull this off.

Desty Nova has a number of Tholians, including the TK5.

True, but he has them as .rar format... which I have no clue how to use :(

I also wonder if he has them textured and illuminated... that way, I could work with them and make them "shiny".

RAR is pretty much the same as ZIP files. I recomend using his stuff as opposed to me bashing this. His models are on the mark  ;)



Yes they are textured and illuminated.

I tried downloading DN's K-F5 to start retexturing it, but there are some problems with the model (the engine grill in particular...).

If anyone has any time and wants a free project, could they bash up a TMP F5? Doesn't look that hard- DN's model includes a deflector dish and a confusing engine box. Plus, I don't know how he placed all the textures on this thing.

The TOS version is here:
http://www.shipschematics.net/startrek/images/klingon/frigate_kole.jpg

The Balson is another ship I'd like to see. I know it looks like the ever-popular belknap, but this ship looks more like a TMP version of SFB's F-BC. ( i think somone already did this, but could I be pointed to it?)
http://www.shipschematics.net/startrek/images/federation/commandcruiser_balson.jpg

And another weird ship, this one being the Irabazi. Though, if someone does this, I'd like to see it with clean Exlesior hull and not the E-B derivative.
http://www.shipschematics.net/startrek/images/federation/cruiser_irabazi.jpg

Posted this one a while ago, the Challenger? None appear on BC... and if they do, they're under various names.

And thanks in advance :D
