Title: Korgath Bird o' Prey...
Post by: Rod ONeal on March 25, 2005, 09:08:25 pm
...or how to ignore canon whilst coloring your models.  :ufo:

Retexture of P81's BoP.

I'd upload these last 2 models to BattleClinic, but my dialup is too slow and the file transfer times out.  :'(

Awesome Bird of Prey. Any chance of a canon Bird of Prey (textures that is). These textures look very nice.

Well, the problem with me doing canon textures is that you'll have a reference to compare them to. I'm not confident enough, at this point, to subject myself to the scrutiny. Possibly in the future I'll try a hi-res remake of P81's originals with some reference pics to work with. I just don't think that I'm quite that good yet.

With the thundering burst of indifference to this one, I might have to do a TMP Connie. Just to get everyones attention. j/k  ;D Thanks for your comments, though. I appreciate it.

Rod,

1. I happen to think your work is excellent. This BoP could also pass for a Hydran version too so double bonus!

2. Regarding a 'Thundering indifference' keep in mind it is EASTER weekend and as we always say here real life takes priority...

Now, where is your pirate starbase retexture?

Hey, I wouldn't mind seeing a retexture of a TMP Connie, if you're gonna make her into a Pirate ship.  There are those here that would love to see alot of different Trek ships redone for pirate use.  :-D

Imagine an extended time of peace and alliance between the Federation and the Klingon Empire, right before such a time as they might be willingly and peaceably joined into the (now ever growing and progressing, seeing as how the Borg have been beaten and the Dominion deflated) Federation.  Imagine what a Klingon warship might look like... totally Klingon, but with much Starfleet influence, even to the color schemes.

Imagine holdout empires of the Romulans and Cardassians or such and then one of their advance outposts picking up an image of a fleet of these shimmering blue BOPs and maybe even Vorchas camping out right on their borders!  Imagine them turning on the viewscreen a year later and the same ships are still there on their borders, but they've got the Starfleet Comet and Star logo on their hulls!

That'd make a good scene for a future Trek series!

Oh, that Enterprise would be continued for at least another couple of seasons!

the idea of blue engines on a bop just doesn't agree with me...but nice work on it anyways.
