Post TNG Mods (MOS) Previously STO Era Ships

because they are far + it will be a great job to cut the materials and the ship to parts to make them glow.

What does that mean? Its simply a matter of applying the alpha channel to the texture properly.

Gettin Better

Update on the firesteel

[deadthunder2_0]

Update

bottom saucer is too smooth
and also here is the new akira color scheme, it is very close to STO's, but not as shiny

[Captain_Licard]

I like it, gives it a stealthy look. As an update to the Firesteel, Ive finished the pylons for the nacceles. Im gonna try to detail it myself because ive got metalnick busy with a Romulan Warbird.

[Vladko1]

Next update, I started to make and the engineering hull. Soon I have to go to sleep, soo this is only the first stage of the engineering

[Captain_Licard]

Alright, i created a small phaser array and have duplicated it across the ship. From what ive heard about the class from deadthunder, i want it to be lightly armoured ye be able to pack a punch. so im gona attempt to give it only to more phaser arrays. both of which will be on the ships underside.

Next update Started the engineering hull. With recommendetions of some people, I'll make the hull a bit more wide
EDIT: update

In the second shot, see how shallow the curve on the bottom of the engineering hull is?  If you bulb that out a bit more and spread some "wings" off the edges you can get a bit of the Enterprise B feel, which would go well with the saucer, in my opinion.

update
In about an hour Im going to Sunny Beach for about 2-3 days to be near the sea, to have a swim I'll come by here trough the phone or if lucky finding free wireless connection, trough the lap-top. See ya

[Captain_Licard]

Update, seeing as the firesteel class came from the Nebula, I decided to model the phasers accordingly. Instead of one large array on the bottom, I have modeled two in ware the nacceles would be on the nebula. Also, I have created a phaser array that on the upper saucer that circles around and even under the nacceles. The reason for this is since the nacceles were "slapped on," parts would just have been disabled.

[Villain]

Personally I'd say break the top array up into three, right now it looks TOO kitbash-y, if you know what I mean. It'll also make it look a bit more aggressive. Otherwise, nice job.

[Captain_Licard]

True, but from the background story I heard from deadthunder, The firesteel was built from spare parts of a wreckage by a crew trying to get home, things like breaking up the phaser array probably wasnt on their top priority list. Therfore, in order to keep it "canon" to deadthunders background for it, i may end up leaving it.

[deadthunder2_0]

the original of the class was created as a way to get home, while this version was made because the lack of a engineering hull made the ship less bulky, and more maneuverable while few weapons

[deadthunder2_0]

The Akira is ready for beta testing, anyone interested?

[Captain_Licard]

I'll beta

[deadthunder2_0]

the team gets to beta anyway, we need people who aren't part of the team

[Captain_Licard]

oooohhhh....

[Locke]

I'll beta!

Check your PMs for my email.

ok, Licard, can you splt that saucer array into lets say 15 parts, 3 setas of five like this  (but curved)
the ship uses a strange form of pulse phaser called the Pulsing-Phaser Weapon System or P-Phaser for short or for SFC fans, the Gatling Phaser. all 5 arrays in the group fire at the same time, pumping out energy like a pulse phaser, but with a continuous lock.
