Alright, popped these in and had a look.

The connie's illumination textures didn't show up. You have an illumination file in here but it looks just the same as the regular texture file. Whatever the case, she was flying dark.

The Miranda looked pretty good though. Because I've been playing tWoK for the past few days in the background while I worked on stuff I still get the vibes that the rollbar connections are off..... but I'm not going to ask you to edit them. it's a fine model and a fine texture.

Now I just need to get around to replacing the other ships in the game with your textures so everyone else doesn't look so out of place.

Which connie?

EDIT: Oh crap, you're right - its my connie refit. Give me 5 minutes and I'll put up v1.2

EDIT2: Okay, my $0.02 regarding the Sivista and Miranda.
The miranda is a light cruiser to me - a bigger and badder light cruiser than, say, the Kearsarge, but still a light cruiser. The sivista still feels like a heavy cruiser to me. If scaled proportionately to the Ktinga it actually seems to outmass the ktinga. I really like to think of it as a parallel ship. When the 3 ktingas in the Motion Picture swung by in that diagonal formation, for me, one of them might as well have been a Sivista their capabilities were so similar. More or less equal, but different.
That's just what my head does with the design.

Slightly confused by your kitbash request. You want a Sivista with a third nacelle on the boom, or a D5 (what on my site is called the QaHos) with a nacelle on the boom?

Why do you think I started this endeavor ;).

FoaS,

I would like a Sivista with a third nacelle on the boom. I intend to use it as my D5W.

Thank you for your support. :)

Like I said: Canon fed ships come first, since I've neglected those horribly. After that? I'll do the sivista and your kitbash at the same time :).

Caution roleplay involved... snicker...

You role a d20 and score a three: The GM reads the folllowing to you:

"Classified SECRET by The Office of Starfleet Intelligence Threat Force evaluation group/Unauthorized Access is Prohibited. You can only read information on Federation vessels on the screen."

and  please don't forget the L'rexa with a third warp engine too...

Thanks for the offer, tho nowadays I've hardly had enough time to muse about my own stuff for longer than five minutes. Having two jobs does that. :\

Oddly enough, the only one I like there is the Kzin.. the Fed would be far better served without that warp on a stick concept on the very top, and the Klingon looks too anorexic to ne personally.  But that Kzin looks kinda Galactic-ish.. so I'm good with it.  :)

On the other hand, mod that Mars pic, and you get something interesting..

Hey man I found this on my HD while tiding up folders. It is based off your V2 K'tinga. Do you want a copy of the meshand texture?

Wait a sec, I thought this thread was about FoAS's awsome models, not some sub-par low-quality nonsense from elsewhere.

FoAS, what's the word on the Constellation class? Sure it's an import from TNG, but it's in the TMP style and so automatically awesome. I remember commenting that it had less grebbles and thus looked better. Where is it now? In what form?

I never got released, but its in the 'Canon-to-be-released-soon' list.... In fact. I have some idle few hours here, so I'll put that one out for you :)

Regarding the Galactic Empires design: very meh. It looks exactly like what it is: a collection of parts placed together to look like a Star Trek ship.
Regarding the K't'inga base? I've never had much of a love for that particular klingon/romulan hybrid - i feel like it loses some of the grace the the D7 design had going for it.

That's good news, Fury. I'd forgotten about the Constellation, and have always really liked the design. Have you seen this:
