For those of you who've been following the thread in the Excalibur forum, you know that I'll be using this thread for the remainder of the ship's construction.

Just to sum up what I've been working on since last night...

-Ventral side of the engineering hull
-deflector color
-nacelle pylons
-nacelle grills
-added nacelle "ribs"
-moved ventral phaser array forward
-right now, i'm working on the tops of the nacelles
-added thrusters to the drive section and saucer
-lateral sensors

Pics...

Fantastic work on this DJ! So I now assume this isnt going to be exclusive to excalibur anymore whilst it's in these forums?

Really good work DJ...

I'm liking the look of this baby, what i the current poly count btw.  :D

I'm afraid that when your Galaxy Class is released, mine are gonna be relegated to the scrap heap lol!!  :lol:

Anyhow, great work..... keep it up dude!!

EDIT -  also I take it that this baby is gonna be fully Mvam compatible!?, if so I have a whole host of Trek related music scores which are perfect for the separation sequence cutscene. Drop me a line at some point if your interested!!  :D

That ship looks amazing. :D

Dude, I think I found an excuse to look at the Galaxy Blueprints.  The funny part is, they're not 100% accurate either. :D

I love it! Galaxy is still one of my favs. I hope it'll be a bit tougher then the galaxy template we ran into when playing KM1. The galaxy there stat-wise felt a bit under-rated, being rather vulnerable. I'll be bookmarking this thread for sure!

Jay Crimson--> As far as the HP strength, yes, it will be more substantial that the ship in KM 1.0, though still balanced.

Cordanilus--> You know, the funny thing is that the ship, no matter which model, changed a lot over the years.  it's hard to find consistent details.

Glenn--> 12,889 is the poly count.  But if it makes you feel any better, I'm trying to send every other Galaxy Class to the scrap heap.  And there are a lot of them. :)  It's just time for a new one from scratch.  Though i've been using no ship but your Venture since it was released.  And yes, the ship will separate.

Jb06--> I started this ship before the announcement of Excalibur, but it will be included with that mod.  It is not, however, exclusive to that mod, much like LC's Intrepid, Defiant, etc.

More pix soon

cool, that it is also a single release.
this mod makes me (once more) proud to be part of this community, which is still extremely active and of High Quality!
Looking forward for example for Newman, You, Dj, Glenn just to call some of them!!

/edit:What do you think will be the final poly count? and how many did your ent f have??

Actually the more time DJ Curtis takes for it the more times he'll improve things he encounters to not work right.

Yippers :D  I know.
I was referring to the blueprints actually.  There's an error in the bridge layout compared to what was seen in the show.
It's about the conference lounge...anyway.

You galaxy looks spectacular. :D  I can just imagine the enterprise now, in a recreation of the intro for the series...in 1600x1200 resolution. :D
