So alot of changes toward the end of this project, hue and overall colour change... dirt and damage added.. overall turned out quite well.. poly count is about 3500 and 4000 on the heavy version.

Max 5 buggered on me again 2day so im handing both over to outalance for conversion to .mod while i make the vl, ti images and all that junk  :)

They certainly evoke the feeling I got when I first saw Jem'Hadar ships in DS9; I think you got the feel of them.

Thanks guys.... Im not really one for retexturing.... and at the moment I have a project list from here to to the tilet upstairs  :)

Im sure I can stick it at the back of the list though.... however, i would have to create a simular model as I dont like to work with other peoples meshes or textures... I like to start clean and fresh from the poly up you might say  :)

Well, 3ds would be preferable, or mod, as I can't open your max files because you use a enwer version (I have 3.1 only)

the one modification I can suggest to these wwould be to add something to the nose for weapon emitters, IE polaron torp or beams. If I had thought of it before you'd finished them I'd have suggested the big one have some kind of pulse or something mounted to the front of it nacelles, so perhaps that could be an idea for your next dominion ship?

I especially like the sweptback wings. Marky, how did you do those? I tried doing something like that for a fighter and it, uh, didn't turn out so good.

Can't wait to see these in game. Well done!  :thumbsup:

Thanks Bonk...

GM... as for the wings... I created a sphere.... 64, i then squished it so it was like a flat frisbee.... used the soft selection on the underside to raise one side of the sphere into the upper half, to form a plate shape, then again using the soft selectio i streched out the back and squished the front, then booleaned a u shape out of the back.. I then wleded all the broken vertices after the boolean, and hey presto... crappy jem hadar wings  ;D

Post by: GarrethMacLeod on April 03, 2005, 06:42:18 pm
I don't think Milkshape does booleans. I might have to use 2 spheres and do a reverse face on the bottom one. Even if I can't figure it out, I still like the ships. "crappy"? Nah, I don't think so. Look good to me bud.

I've got them around somewhere but I think they are only as raw mods...they're not modded.
