thx all for the comments, I'm glad you like it

first, like Bigkap said already, she have 4 aft torpedo tubes. The torpedo tubes in general are very similar to DJ's
Century, the tubes have all the same size, the aft ones just don't have that big lagging like the front ones, I will post some close up pix of the torp tubes later today.

Rengers, you already know what i think of this work. One thing that has occurred to me in looking at those pix... you're gonna need one heckuva good HP'er for those phasers. lol

yeah, lol, that phasers on the top saucer could be not that easy to hp, but i will think about later.

@Aeries: Don't give up your mythra, I remember back last year, we started at pretty much the same time with our ships, it would be great to see both of them one day side by side in BC

I dunno if its possible, but some suggestions of mine:

Perhaps move 1 pair of the torpedo tubes from the underside, to the topside instead? Thus giving it slightly better coverage, and make it look alittle less cluttered on the underside. Also think the dorsal saucer phasers would look better, if they were placed further out, closer towards the edge.

Might make it a bit easier to HP as well

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! So pretty! Thats what Aeries meant by the Acheron months ago...

Hah, the "Bad boys of the galaxy" on patrol?

Dude, this is frakking amazing. You do nothing but astonish me, so have cookies, I haven't given anyone one in a while.

gdata · « **Reply #24 on:** January 27, 2009, 12:46:33 PM »

Since I can give cookies now as well, you'll get one from me, too. Love the design!!! :shock: :shock:

Awsome design there rengers I cant wait to see where it goes from here.

WileyCoyote · « **Reply #26 on:** January 27, 2009, 03:38:42 PM »

It looks like the 25th century has a unique style. I like it. The rollbar is very reminiscent of DJ's Leonidas Class. Don't give me ideas.

I like the transparency of the bussard collectors that reveal the inner workings.

moed · « **Reply #27 on:** January 27, 2009, 07:02:17 PM »

Very nice design... elegant and mean at the same time.

Excellent job.

P.S. I also look forward to the Thesius

AND THE MITHRA... Aeries

well... since I've been out of the action, rusting like an old wet pole,... bored to tears....I think I can take a chance with them.
besides, this is a fine looking ship, and I still have some skills when it comes to HP delicate ships.

it just took me two seconds to see the drydock picture in your signature and go "man, that's beautiful!"

alright, the offer is made. it's your choice, tho.

Centurus · « **Reply #29 on:** January 28, 2009, 02:56:48 AM »

Very impressive. I definitely like this ship.

Arvis Taljik · « **Reply #30 on:** January 28, 2009, 10:53:26 AM »

Very cool ship; reminds me a bit of the Achilles based on the shape. Definitely awesome design!

rengers · « **Reply #31 on:** January 28, 2009, 12:24:39 PM »

thx guys

, and thx to those who offers to hp this ship.

But tbh I don't know yet, if I'll give the job someone else or if i try it by myself.
But I'm sure some time will pass off until the ship will be ready for hp. I will decide
then if i will hp it by myself or if i will leave it to another, it depends on how far my hp
arts will be evolved to this time, although thx again for the offer

I must say that you have an incredibly clean mesh

Technerd89 · « **Reply #33 on:** January 28, 2009, 01:51:02 PM »

i just want to throw up some shots of your older, original mesh for the acheron to do display just how far you have come with this great design.

a cookie for you sir for the excellent progress.

_{jb76 edit - i have uploaded the images, as hotlinking them were a bit large}
_{tech - sorry, i was afraid of that, but was lazy ^^}

rengers · « **Reply #34 on:** January 29, 2009, 12:05:49 PM »

thx tech, here is a little update, probably the last one for a while on this one:

the first shot is the promised close up shot of the torpedo tubes (like I said already,
they are very similar to these of DJ's Century), the rest
are shots of a drydock i specially built for the acheron. I have built this
drydock some months ago as a result of boredom and i have to admit i had some fun to do it

The Drydock is completly finished and i have already ported it to BC.

I also plan to make custom shuttles for the Acheron and release it altogether in some kind of a pack

Villain · « **Reply #35 on:** January 29, 2009, 12:22:34 PM »

Neat.

Technerd89 · « **Reply #36 on:** January 29, 2009, 01:24:06 PM »

epic drydock. definitely looks post-nemesis.

MarkyD · « **Reply #37 on:** January 30, 2009, 06:39:11 AM »

Great job mate, remind me... your doing this in blender right?

ZERO · « **Reply #38 on:** January 31, 2009, 02:04:49 PM »

I look forward to seeing your progress with the textures. it all looks good at the minute

Nice design has a touch of the white star from B5 From some angles. Good job
