Ok ok ok, i know i know i know, Overkill but what can i say, i've learned so much since making my last one i wanted to try adding to it - difference is i already have textures im SOOOO happy with, so all i will have to do is map to my textures i already have, anyway!!

I've decided to do this for more than one reason, More quality/detailed Mesh, a lower poly count - add bits onto the ship i missed in the first place, Fix all the Bug's and errors i had in my last build, and Last but not least i am NOT going to be UNIFYING any of my Mesh's - These will be released as Max files not nif's for people to be able to use what they want to make their OWN ship, Each Component will be saved under its own tittle - For Example Bridge, Main Hull, Saucer Etc then people who want to make their own ships can put the parts where they want and hopefully help them on their way to building there own ships - i got this idea originally from Baz1701 but was also inspired by a few of my friends asking me if they could have my model when i was done - So here i go again 3rd times a charm they say dont they?? lol

Ok Top view as u can see not much yet BUT i have added the Nav lights


Bottom view - only HUGE difference is the rings are round NOT BLOCKY AND they meet at the end where mine dipped into a triange lol

Not bad,  only thing I would recommend is release them as 3DS so people with older max or other programs can use them too.

Thanks for the advice - i didn't think of that so thank you

Yea my Max 5 and milkshape both prefer 3ds file from the newer programs :thumbsup:

and again I should of thought of this as I'm always getting 3DS off people so i can load the mesh in my copy of 3d Max
so thanks, anywho i thought i would show you guys the next part of my mesh - i can't belive how stupid i was and missed the taper of the nacelle - my ones on the ORIGINS pack are just tubes - STUPID ME!!! also went to town this time with the detail on the inside made it less poly but nicer looking - also the box on the sides and the 3 underneath are actually part of the mesh - not just slapped on under it lol - last thing i'll say at the moment she is a STUPID 16k poly BUT there is still a lot of poly to lost on the saucer and maybe the ball at the back and the bussards could come down a tad too - maybe the bridge, not too sure - but i wont do the major refine untill shes complete so i can see WHAT to keep and what i can lose - but still hope u like her!

Notice the more smoother mesh and the slight incline in the nacelles - Which i missed on my first two makes, also if you pay attention the the inside of the nacelle its smoother and also a more rounded cut, the Box at the end and the 3 box's underneath are now actually part of the mesh - where last time i added them as a separate pice


as you can see from this shot, the front top of the nacelle also has its nav lights and also has a clear dome in front of the bussard

WOW some spectacular ships, sumblime work  :kiss:

I hope you release at least one unified HP'd Connie for those without the talent to unify the meshes  ;)
