Forgive me for asking Rel, I do not have a sketchfab account, so I cannot download the files to verify, but what format are these models in?

Are this A2 sods with hardpoints that are mod ready or are these MS3D models that need converting?

Great job!

It is in .blend format and is 39k triangular polygons so decidedly not A2 ready. Probably suitable for Bridge Commander though.

FlowRellik - that really is a lovely model. If you had uploaded it in .obj format I may have been tempted to try and do something with it.
Also, remember that you can host your meshes on this site if you wish to.

Yes, the blender format is a bit of a roadblock for me as I don't have any plug-ins for that. Otherwise, I should have a render of your gorgeous Enterprise model by now. *hint* :p

thing is .blend can easily be opened in blender, and it has so many different export features, including .3ds. Did I mention Blender's FREE?!
Also I did check the download of the model, all the texture files and whatnot come with the file itself so it can easily be exported out :)

I tried to use Blender once...once...:lol2:

I don't think I have the head to understand modeling programs, much as may I try. As much as I would like to see the Walker in A2, I believe the ship would need to be reduced considerably before being able to be ported and that would take way more knowledge that I am capable of.

Oh well, in any case, awesome ships Rel. :thumbsup:

Thanks a plenty and tbh it's ok either way if they make the A2 or not. As long as these ships get a good use out of them in renders (CoughJetfreakCough), or other game mods I'll be happy. Now when EXCALIBUR comes around, you bet your bucks I'm learning UE to get them working!

Hello:
Very nice phrase there :D . Also, the ships look good, but can I ask why they have different hull colours?

Simple: One for federation NX use for warp drive before Phase II (Stamets), and the other being the spore drive prototype by S31 (Disco)

Terrific model Rel, it is exquisitely detailed.

I do not like that design however. But then I feel that way about just about every STD design.

Can't please everyone :D but I do thank you for that. I'm trying to get the patterns right for a hybrid mix of that anglo-saxon (a pinch) with ENT era and TMP era Panel designs.

Please don't misunderstand my meaning here, the model itself is gorgeous in quality and detail. What I mean that I dislike is the general designs that the art department in STD has chosen for their revamped Klingon ships, which look nothing like the classics.


Your work looks vastly better than the plucked chickens they put onscreen. :thumbsup:

In any case I need some insight. I got in contact with my bud Atolm and figured I might try some "ancient runes" for the hull later, but I tried to have this ship as a mix of two eras merged (Ancient pre-tos vessel reconstructed and retrofitted into TOS standard). For the ancient parts, I wish to try and add the black fleet idea on those portions of the hull....but how...

Hello:
Maybe this is how Klingon ships should have looked like in the Ent-era :) .

Also, are you a friend of Atolm? ... *feel jealous*... heheheh, I love most of his designs, EO and I have made some models based on his designs.

Nice Gundam! Was this the model you mentioned in "The Shout Thread"?

very much yes! Mind you that render's an old WIP Shot. It's much more improved now, and even learned better smoothing techniques as well :D

Merlyn Class experimental Multi-purpose light cruiser.
(Made for Deg).
carries a type of secondary hull structure that can be interchangable, ranging from exploration, military and cargo merchant transportation.
