Looks very cool, nice design.

OMFG. These ships are VERY nice. Can't wait for them to be released.

Anything on the specs?

What modeling program is that?...and those look awsome,bet they look very good in BC.

Im trying to make the merge from Max to AC3D,Blender,MOI and/or Zbrush3(can box model with Zbrush),only because my Max 8 was borrowed from a friend,he was letting me try it,I cant buy that atm..too much money.

I use 3DSMax7.

I thought only 3DSMax 3 supported BC nifs.

BES · « **Reply #47 on:** June 08, 2007, 10:48:54 PM »

NifSkope can now export models to .Nif(but its the wrong version,newer than BC), supposidly there is a converter to convert new .Nifs to the old ones Bridge Commander uses, but people dont seem to be able to post a link where we can get this converter or put it up as a download because there is also a .Nif plug-in for Max 7,8,9 but it wont export the right .Nif version for BC,hence the converter..

Anyway,back on topic, Keep up the good work,will always love your modeling skillz

Max3 was the last to support Nif3 (the one BC uses), the plugins for newer versions are for Freedom Force, Morrowind, Oblivion, etc.

Nifskope just started implementation of the Nif3 version, we're really gonna just have to wait on how that eventually develops and if a Max/Blender/Maya exporter will result it.

As for my work, I always try to give my best, the Luxor is and always will be special for me, since she's the design that pays homage to Ancient Egypt, and is so far the most detailed model I ever did (the spotlights for instance have their source lights textured into the model, etc.).

These are a must have though...they are sweet,the hull pattern is visable and look very awsome.

Indeed A., it's an amazing job... You are a true artist!

Lemme introduce you all with teh latest member of the family, the Thebes class medium cruiser (Belknap-like variant):

BES · « **Reply #52 on:** June 12, 2007, 06:29:13 PM »

Once again you rock...very great modeling...cant wait to see them in action on my comp:-)

Billz · « **Reply #53 on:** June 12, 2007, 06:44:11 PM »

Adonis...

How many variants do you have planned?

Wow... that ship is awesome. I love the way the engines come up from the bottom of the secondary hull... very creative.

The Thebes is based on the Belknap Constitution variant, so the nacelle position is replicated.

BES · « **Reply #57 on:** June 13, 2007, 12:27:03 AM »

I might start calling you the God of modeling or something, im doing Wing Commander ships but this is crazy,seems like your just wipping these up in a few min:-), its taking me like months per ship,and they arent even textured yet..

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #58 on:** June 13, 2007, 01:21:42 AM »

Thebes is great, it's my favorite of the bunch. I like how you have the nacelle pylons much better on this one than on Luxor.

Legacy · « **Reply #59 on:** June 13, 2007, 07:42:22 AM »

I agree with DJ, but the same ways as with the Belknap, i don't know SF would bash the ship jus to change the pillows... to quote Mark at the podcast ep 1 "it seems a bit... well.. pointless"

Great job on the model though.
