But accurate to the show, that ship could stop on a dime, flip over, then run full steam at the thing chasing her.

Accurate to the show, maybe, but somehow it just doesn't seem to fit. It was just one of those things that occasionally drove me haywire. Now, if it maneuvered like a Sovereign, that I could live with a bit better. :P

The Enterprise isn't run by a sentient computer though, nor does it carry a bomb that can explode a star. :P

Awesome work there! As a huge fan of the show let me tell you, you are doing a great service to the show and all it's fans. I would like to contribute a few pictures as references to your pack (if you are going to include any of the other ship classes)

First up is the Siege Perilous Class (Wrath of Achilles and Balance of Judgement) :












( I know it's a bit small, but the only one I could find )

Next is the AF/A-29 Phoenix Slipfighter:





RA-26 Shrike:

(The one in the Upper Right, best reference pic I could find)



If I can find more I will try to post more or pm ya the links to the images.

(edited to add more Siege Perilous class pics)
John Connor: Do you even remember me? Sarah Connor? Blowing up Cyberdyne? Hasta la vista, baby? Ring any bells?
Terminator: That was a different T-101.
John Connor: What, do you guys come off an assembly line or something?
Terminator: Exactly.
John Connor: Oh man, I'm gonna have to teach you everything all over again!

Thanks for the Siege Perilous piccies, I could never find any decent images and its different shape makes it a good contrast between the High Guard ships that share designs similar to the Glorious Heritage class.

Edit: As for the hardpoint, it's already pretty accurate turny/flippy/moving wise. And the majority of those clips from my vid show a ship attacking something already pretty darn damaged from previous recording attempts.

Guys this is absolutely awsome

and bytheway i think i can help ya for the ships especial the RA-26 Shrike(the pic is still hosted on his server lol) and the slip fighter (if you don't chose to use the one adrealy in bc) thoses models where made by a modeler who was working on a andromeda mod for sins of a solar empire and it happen that i'm also on that project and i can give them to ya

the RA-26 Shrike model is not total acurate but also the only one availible out there

i also have a very low poly count eternal vigilance class model availible


but as you can see none of them have any textures

if ou need any kind of picture of any ship in the show i can get them so if you need any of these just give a signe

With the recent arrival of 3d Max, I have redone the Magog Worldship. What do you think?

I don't remember clearly anymore, but weren't those Connections between the Planets all of the same radius?
Anyway, looks good so far! :)

Considering the angle we see on the MWS, I think it barely has an established shape. Like the Narada.

Last pic for today: Cos the MWS with bumpy pylons was 70k worth of polies, I've cut back and made a 30k version.

lookin good, however 30k is probably gona be too high considering the size you want it to be. The planets don't have to be that smooth :P

So I "might" be able to preserve the bumpy pylons...we'll see...:)

And granyte, awesome pic. We have to find the original meshes! :D

i don't think we will have an answer any soon from the original designer but we might not have to find the original meshes cause i finished the alpha version of the andeg and it's availible for soase on our forum

if dalek contact me i'll send an editable version so you can work on the textures and making it compatible for bridge
(unless you wan to wait for the final version of the model)
