Do what all pure blooded American men do when it comes to windows.  Either hire someone to do it for you, make your kids do it to earn their allowance, or get the wife to do it. 

As for the SFC2/OP hardpointing for the Alabama and Iowa, I can try, but no promises as to if it'll work or not.  SFC3, No problem.  I can fit a maximum of 24 hardpoints onto the ship, and have any combination you want of primaries and heavies. 

Buzz, AV, who's got the readme file?

Ok, the break models are done.  Keep in mind they're crude break models.  Nothing fancy, but they do explode.  So, except for the readme file, everything this good to go with this ship.

CALLING AV AND BUZZ!!!  Need the readme so I can zip this baby up and send it to you guys.  I should be on MSN for the next several hours.  If you don't catch me, e-mail it or PM it to me.

BTE F9thCenturus! You've actually made that monstrosity look beautiful!

I think it's because you've smoothed off all the rough edges of the SFC/KA model, but those beauty shots leave me speechless!

There's a couple of TMP Missouri's at Battleclinic and J.O.K.E.R. did a TNG version based on the Sovie.

It wasn't me that made the model or textures.  AV and Buzz are responsible for that.  I just hardpointed her for SFC2/OP and SFC3 and did a couple renders in Max.  Max tends to make even some of the ugliest ships look pretty damn good.

man ..   Moon Raker does good work.

OH ..   BTW...  I simply don't like the idea of using an oversized Miranda class with an add on for a BB design.  I know that the idea is that since the Miranda is considered  a "new heavy" ..   that the Missouri (which was in WWII designed after the Iowa class) might follow a similar design.

However ..  I simply disagree with that thought or frame of reference.  (sorry, nothing aimed at those who agree with that design of the Missouri).    The design I chose for the Iowa class should and could also be used for the Missouri.  AV is making one change on the placement of the deflector dish (I placed it recessed entirely too far back into the hull).  I have already started doing some of the textures on the rest of the hull for the Iowa.  If ya like I can find a registry for both the Iowa and one more  that would be close in succession, add a bit more detail in the texturing, and call it the Missouri  (just a thought)

Though that's true of the WW II BB's this is Trek  ;). SO perhaps a revisit of the Missouri is in order. Just a matter of re-envisioning the design  ;). (Putting on thinking cap)  :P.
