I'm really loving all this Babylon 5 work, I would love someone like Netflix to get the rights to make a sequel series about the Centauri/Drakh war, be what Crusade should've been if it had continued.

Same for me. I don't want a reboot since the show is great the way it is but a continuation to close off the evens of Crusade and definitely dealing with the buildup of the conflict with Centauri/Drakh would make for amazing stories. One can always dream.

Once you have enough B5 stuff, someone (I figure it'll have to be me if I want it) should make a fresh B5 mod for FO. Low-poly models would be needed, too, but your high-poly reimaginings would make excellent starting points.

I'm 100% in support of anyone who wants to make low poly models for game use.

Just installed homeworld today just so I can play a B5 mod.

Wow, the Centauri ships are gorgeous in colour.

I would lend a hand in that endeavour, but it's a big undertaking. Something best to get a full team of modellers behind.

Thanks.

I think it really brings the ships to life and shows off the decadent nature of the Centauri culture.

Absolutely. I love how unique and different each of the species were in Babylon 5, both culture and appearance wise and their ship designs.

I'd be happy to lend a hand if I had a laptop. -Boy do I miss those days :cry2:

Yep, the Centauri Carrier is just as much a beast as I imagined. Just exquisite work RJB, can't praise this enough.

I would love to have playable versions but, as mentioned several times, that would be quite the undertaking. Heck, I'm still waiting for a perfect playable Omega Destroyer but it's nearly impossible to detail that ship properly in A2. I use the one from this website but several details on the front section such as antennas and the EA symbol are missing. So currently it's 95% perfect. :p

I currently installed the EA back into my game, so soon will be bringing more B5 races into the fold, cause dammit I miss playing B5 games, even if just about all of them were mods. Lol.

Definitely would love to see a continuation on B5. Centering it on the EA/Centauri war foretold in Lost Tales would make things interesting. I can't model worth a damn, but I'd gladly help in any other way that I can.

Again, love the work RJB, from one B5er to another, it's grand to see our old little show still get love by fans of Sci-Fi. :clap:

I'd personally love to see a B5 mod for Sins of a Solar Empire.

Years back I did start a personal mod for space empire 3. If I get enough ships maybe I'll try one for SE4.

4x space empire building themed to Babylon 5 would be a blast.

Also found out there is an online version of b5 wars rpg game.

Now that is one I always thought needed a revamp. Nice job.

The original model was very basic. I may do my own take on the Raider Battle Wagon.

I really love those Centauri designs you did they are what I'd expect to see in a new B5 universe series, stunning. :)

The Raider Zephyr is looking better than ever. Love what you did with it.

And that scene from Unholy Union should be a shot from season 1 of a new series, definitely. Beautiful work RJB.

The main basic shape is based around the battle wagon that showed up in season 5. I just added larger fighter bays and a soon to be added rotating section.

I've only seen season 5 a few times.
I usually watch season 1-4 .
Looking forward to seeing the final design.

Beautiful work, love the attention to detail and dual hangars makes more sense than the season 1/2 battle wagons.
