Arrogant class
« on: April 04, 2010, 12:48:03 AM »
Awesome news guys!  I have received permission from Gus Castillo, creator of the Arrogant class, to adapt the aforementioned design into a 3d model and then Bridge Commander!

(scroll down to Arrogant class)

This will be the WIP thread.  Time to start hammering away!

My love
Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know
He'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love,
Strange love a star woman teaches.
I know
His journey ends never
His star trek
Will go on forever.
But tell him
While he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me."

not bad :D that's going to be a cool ship. Though it's going to be hell to get working right for MVAM.

yeah, breaking into four separate ships.. perhaps the bridge module should be left alone, attached to the saucer. If I recall, Eclipse-class was a major pain in the rectum.

I promised him that I would be true to his design, and I'm not going back on that.  Somehow, all four parts will be able to pop off. :idk:

There was a topic about this a while ago with one of DJ's ships (http://bc-central.net/forums/index.php/topic,6049.0.html), you'd be able to make it split into four easy (The Prometheus can split into 3 with ease ingame). But you wouldn't be able to split the two top halves, then split the two bottom halves afterward (Or any combination of such), you would have to reintegrate and then separate again in a new configuration.


"The design is clearly ancient... Launched hundreds of thousands of years ago."

...Probably not, but the number I get(379.6m) could be considered ?original intent,? a term that I think I will be using from now on, and ?canon? be damned.

Just one thought... Why the hell would you want to separate the bridge module from the rest of the ship?!?!

Those nacelles have the silhouette of a TMP connie nacelle! I bet they'll be a nightmare to get right! But something about them doesn't seem right. They seem too cluttered I think..

I haven't made that much progress on the Arrogant, but I am working on a Nemesis era version of the NX class for a mod called Star Trek Freelance.

They commissioned me to upgrade their current one, by retexturing or better yet remodelling, which I plan to do.  Anyways, here is the texture wip in its current state:
