So you're going to do gold and red repaints for the entire Klink fleet?

....that sounds fun actually. Like to see what the results will be :) So what would the new Quo'Nos one look like now that the scheme is adopted fleetwide?

Yup!

to be honest, as far as the new Qonos One? I haven't thought that far, or even know if I'm going to bother.

It would be cool to see a fleet lineup in these colors... sans the BOP. For some reason that ship is a kind of combo-breaker for the Klink fleet... all the Fed ships look similiar to a degree, but when it came to the FASA klink list (and the like), the BOP stood out like a sore thumb. I'd like to see the D-10, Gull, and similar ships sharing the D-7's 'look and feel' in your colors, representing a unified fleet.

How far have you thought about the Klingons? Do they still have slave races ala SFB? Two species of Klingons (smooth-heads vs bumpy heads)? Do they have an Emperor as speculated before TNG or do they have a chancellor?

This one will give you the TMP kligon Cruiser which is close, Q1 just has add-ons and different colouring Click me!

This one has a few more and Q1 Click me!

More ...!

Probably have more links but I think these will give you what you wanted
People always said they wanted the government to listen to them and now the government is listening, taking notes and names...and coming to see you soon!

Remember the axiom of big government bureaucrats: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. When, finally, under the crushing weight of taxes and regulation, it stops moving, subsidize it.

Look about 5 or 6 posts ago, its where I told KF that I will be messing with the FASA Klinks that I like.

will the klingons have slave races? officially no, but practically yes, (second class citizens). One species (slightly bumpy head, like Chang). They have both - the Emporer's throne is empty awaiting the return of Kahless.

Yup, I've seen them. WZ was able to send me all the shots I need :-)

Thanks :-)

BTW: is there a D5 out there that isn't atra's?

Il like the colors. One segetion, sharpen the textures once and increase contrast 10 points.

it may be worth it, the contrast. - but the textures themselves are actually vectored - so they are as sharp as they can be. What you are seeing is how I do raised panelling. I go with a GI look. with shadows around the outside of raised panels, and a highlight around the inside. For downed panels I have a shadow around the inside and a highlight around the outside. It may need tweaking, however.

A pity you can't replicate all the intricate greebling around the bridge on Klingon vessels. Interesting that Klinks have them compared to the Feds. Maybe Romulans would be somewhere in between? And will you be providing points for the disruptors on the engine pods or are you of the mindset that klink heavies are Photons?

Is there something wrong with Atra's D5 or is he just protective about his stuff?

If you need a Klink Light cruiser why not use a D-4? And although it's listed as a Frigate, I treat the L-9 as a NCL for the klinks. I know there's a model of the latter with several versions- with or without the photon tube in the nose, but I'm not sure if there are any D4s out there.

I'm not a fan of Atra's work, so I was trying to determine if there was an alternative - if not, I'll use it.

Sorry, I didn't notice your question of destroyers. Klingons. in my universe, use a combination of Phasers and Beam Disruptors for Primaries (more phasers than disruptors) with Pulse Disruptors for Heavies, backed up by Drones for tertiary.

There's Desty's D5, but it's pretty low res. It'll be accurate though.

If Romulans aren't cowards, then why do they taste like chicken?

Almost done - Just got the nacelles, nacelle pylons, and the underside - plus one or two straggler parts.

Thanks you two :-)

And just to let you folks know, I've decided to do the Chandley, but in TOS form to help round out my Fed TOS fleet.

So if I continually nag you about the Fed releases, does that mean you'll be ecstatic? ;)

Are you going to release the TMP version (I presume it's done?) or are you planning on releasing the ships and their TOS versions side-by-side? How did that beautiful tos connie end up?

I peeked at Rod's link for the D5... gotta say... there isn't much difference from the D7. The only noticeable difference I see is that the secondary hull (the big flat hull) is a little smaller than the one on the D7. Even the model pack for the D5 here on Battleclinic has a different command module! Maybe swapping the boom from one to the other?

Bah. One of the reasons why I didn't like the klink SFB designs- they all looked alike :\

No, I never did a TMP chandley retexture. I just know that people like it, and rather than add yet ANOTHER TMP federation ship to the fleet that I have going, (which is almost something like 30 ships), I'd figure I'd make it TOS to help round out those ranks.

Interesting colour styling. I do like the close detail but it looks like one of those paper model kits. Most impressive.
