Thanks RD looking forward to seeing this

I'd prefer the deflector hangs from the sauser as the moduals are detachable this just makes more sense to me. Keep up the good work. When you've done them both could we have a side by side comparison? -- no rush thanks again.

donÂ´t forget to show me where did you get that deflector dish texture, itÂ´s really good one.

Anjel, you can get the texture off the origional akula ship pack. Just unzip and use the are off of texture. Nevermind I will just post the image for you off the Ptolmy I am working on. It is in the bottom right hand corner. I just mapped both the dish and the support from the same spot on the texture.

there you go, anything anyone needs just let me know and I will upload the file.

I don't know if you noticed but the writting on the sides and the nacelles are backward.

I agree with Peter....they are awesome dude....thanks very much!

glad you guys like them. Like I said in another thread, once you have the basic parts of a federation ship you can pretty much just cut and paste all the parts togather and then there you go, new ship.

Also I have almost finished the remake of the TOS Akula i had released earlier. I hope you guys like all these. And Anjel, lookign forward to yout Saladin when its finished. I am going to work on a TMP version of these, I just have to get the TMP Nacelle finished and I will have all the parts I need for those ships.

I am going to redo the hull on my Fed model at somepoint. I will post an update render before I finalize it so you guys can critic the model.

I put up a link for the upgrade on your Federation design to the ST2-ST6 era if you're interested to look at it. It's located in the other Federation Class Forum.

me too !!!

. Yeah, i have to take a break and complete it once and for all, just textured the upper and lower saucer section and apply common shared textures.

But weÂ´re on this thread to appreciatte and delight our eyes with your models, i really like what youÂ´ve done here, the textures looks amazing with out even compromising the mesh. I really like the progress youÂ´ve reach by now, canÂ´t wait to see TMP vessels !!!

Btw, is there any chance you send me a more detailed texture of the deflector dish ???? thanks in advance !!!

I will look for a more detailed texture, but the only one I have is going to be at 512 or 1024 size. I will PM you with a copy once I locate it. Did you click on the picture to go to the download or just get it off the forum?
