"Dalek"? "R2-D2"? Does this mean that most of US and UK armed forces are SCI-FI fanatics? :eek

Well, it's a start! At least I've got some nicer paneling going on, now.

Nice ship

I would go over that texture again and make it so you don't have overlapping panels, or make the overlapping panels not look like sheets of plastic laid on top of each other.

Locke · « **Reply #24 on:** June 14, 2010, 02:28:57 PM »

I tried to do what you suggested. The right side of the image is the redo, and the left is the previous. Which is better?

Kirk · « **Reply #25 on:** June 14, 2010, 04:15:24 PM »

That's better, now they look more like panels.

Cool, thanks!

Just to give some reference, here's a shot of the KM09 Defiant next to the Sentinel. I didn't realize just how small this thing really was until I did this! Should I make it larger?

the way you described it, i think it's perfectly scaled, actually.

another comparo would be between it and GMunoz's Knight class, a TOS take on the defiant.

Locke · « **Reply #28 on:** June 14, 2010, 07:16:59 PM »

Okay. Sounds (and looks) good.

DJ: what length is your Valiant supposed to be? I'd like to get a shot of all three of these sitting next to each other, but I can't find a spec for length anywhere in the ReadMe. Is there a size entry in the hardpoints of ships? Or can you just tell me how big it is?

JimmyB76 · « **Reply #29 on:** June 14, 2010, 07:44:09 PM »

this is the thread for the Valiant, try going through that, there may be some info or comparison shots...

Well thank you.

Coming from another n00b, that seems to be high praise!

I couldn't find any concrete sizing info about the Valiant, just a reference to it being "slightly smaller than the Defiant". PM time!

Oh! My bad. Saw the 24 posts and just assumed. And you know what they say about assumption . . .

Locke · « **Reply #34 on:** June 14, 2010, 11:24:55 PM »

Here we go. 150 m is what I scaled it to, with the Defiant at 170 and the Sentinel at around 97. A trio of the era!

Locke · « **Reply #35 on:** June 15, 2010, 05:50:27 PM »

I think I'm finally learning how to panel well!

Added some windows, too.

MarkyD · « **Reply #36 on:** June 15, 2010, 05:55:18 PM »

Much nicer.. good job

Locke · « **Reply #37 on:** June 15, 2010, 11:14:46 PM »

Experimenting with alpha lighting. Should be starting on the nacelles this evening, too!

Nice!
