Take a cookie, that's my favorite Romulan vessel and it's never quite been done 100% correctly. :yay: :yay:

How's the Polaris coming, if you don't mind my asking?

I just have to add pulse phasers to the yacht, and I think I will be done with the Polaris.

The Valdore is coming along nicely.  Always good to see an non-Federation ship being made, especially a Romulan.  I will be watching and learning from this thread.  :)

This is one those designs I would redo...
get rid of all those unnecessary pylons for the warp nacelles.

I'm attempting to rough out the underside shapes from the references I'm using. I'm getting there.

Hey Wiley, I can provide you the unfinished 3dsmax conversion of Adam?s Valdore, originally built in lightwave. It?s an awesome high polly version!
The geometry is all ok, and can serves as a reference for you to model the low polly. Just send me a pm with an e-mail, if interested. ;)

Underside looks good so far.  I love those underslung impulse engines.

Yes!  That is a great looking Valdore.
Thanks for letting me know the forum was back up, guys.  I thought everyone died.

No change since last update. I've been busy with work. I've uploaded a few renders of the Polaris on my deviantART page (link in sig).

Yes!  That is a great looking Valdore.
I would like to personally thank starship for finding me a high poly mesh of the Valdore, created by Adam at the Foundation 3D forums.
That ship can be seen here: http://www.foundation3d.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4653
