I still use it, and I added Paint.net a while ago.

With the registry being where it is, would anyone be able to read it?

one idea is to put the registration behind the bridge and have the type's top pointed to the ship's forward. That way you'd be able to read the registry from behind.

Also... any reason for that font? Doesn't look like the starfleet standard :\

Nobody actually reads the registry, starships have transponders, and have an "electronic signature", so reading is irrelevant(technically).
The answer to your font query is, I opted a soviet font just because.  "Federation standard"  is also no such thing.  Plenty of Federation member worlds have their own fonts and signage... I site the Federation long-ranged shuttle that dropped off Spock in TMP.  It had a mixture of fonts, as it used both Vulcan a Terran.  If you re-read my earlier posts, I sited that my direction for the Alpha-Centaurians was to be biased towards Russian ideology.  The fonts are just an extension of that.

That is pretty. I originally thought "kazoo". But the more I look at it, the more I like it. Another good job guys! :thumbsup: 

It seems sometimes the "ugly ducklings" come out the best in the end. I like how we end up with out-of-the-box designs that look perfectly natural and professional as a result of the creative input and teamwork here.

My motivation soars.

See, bonk, this is why I love atolm, and his works :).

This design is very much FoaS approved. I hope more Alpha Centurian designs come out of it.

It looked great before, and TUS mate you have finished it off beautifully. Granted the lighting does allot of the render but it looks awsome  :smitten:

Thats a nice method and workflow, and it works really well. mesh wise not 100% but still a great tut  ;)

works really well on perfectly watertight meshes, and its a hell of a lot easier than doing it all manually. I know I tend to be rather anal about my meshes these days, but I can let go of that for break models.
