Cardassian ship, a straight-forward cruiser

[Dafedz]

Here's a preview of the Cardassian ship, a straight-forward cruiser, which replaces the bland house brick design that came with vanilla. It's still a work in progress texture-wise.





This is after a test separation. It has 636 polys.

I'm pretty used to it now and I'm sure there's no safe, easy shortcuts to creating new, clean, functioning ships for this game. It's all about care, patience, detail, and work. Lots of work!

Here's the 'revised' Cardassian ship I promised. I changed the overall shape of the hull, narrowing the middle and putting her more inline with established Cardassian design themes. Owing to a suggestion from thunder I also thickened up the tail section a bit. I'm a lot happier with the result..
