Looking gooooood.  I can't wait to see the textures when you get them going!  Quick question though, what sensor pallets are you referring to?

All help is appreciated.

These're the Sensor Palettes I'm referring to. ;)

The ship is coming along awesomely (even if that's not a word you deserve something like that here :P ) I love the ship, I can't wait to rip other ships in two with it.

Ahh, that's what I thought you meant.  I agree Aeries, they don't really fit with the ship as it is.  Hmmm....I dunno, lol

DOUBLE POST! O_O;;;


Just thought I'd let you guys know that there's a Mithra bridge in the works. Nothing modeled or anything like that; I've almost gotten a conceptual topographical view sketched out freehand in my sketch book. Parhaps I'll show you when I've gotten more done with it. :] I'm quite pleased, actually.

I look forward to seeing it mate. I've been planning on messing around with a cramped Prime bridge myself, the first one I was doing isn't going to go anywhere (Seeing aw there's nowhere to put the viewscreen!)

Hey guys,
Sorry about the lack of real updates lately. I've been busy as all hell with work and real life issues. Tomorrow, if my interview at the clothing store goes well, I'll be starting a second job (I've been told that the manager's already spoken with my parents and expressed interest in me. :] ). As such, I may get even busier. But I promise you all that I'll do the best I can to set aside time for myself and devote as much as I can to this project... as you know, however, real life comes first.

Again, there isn't too much outside of "cleaning" and optimizing before this ship is ready for texturing, unless you guys have some interesting ideas... if you do, NOW is the time to speak up. :] Don't be shy.

Thanks for your patience. I assure you, I'm doing [And will always continue to do] my best. :]

Thanks for your patience and understanding, everybody. :]

-Aeries.

Hmmm, I can't really think of any suggestions for the ship, she looks fine!  Can't wait to see her textured and in the air...errrr...space. :P

Now that's a nice ship. Very nice, very original, especially with the multiple sensor palettes

BTW, just a quick question...It's been a while since we saw the aft end of the saucer and the "proposed" shuttle bays.  Has anything been done with that?

Sorry for the lack of updates. I've been tired as all hell lately... It's strange.

Anyways, to answer your question Shadow, the entire top portion of the saucer section is being entirely re-built. I DO plan to add those same [rather, similar] shuttlebays to both sides of the ship again, along with a similar center shuttlebay. It's very difficult, however, since I want to make the secondary hull merge into the bridge module... I don't know how to descrive it well.

In any case, I'm doing my best. It's really hard, not only making this new uppser saucer look decent but actually staying awake and energized enough to bother. I may take a quick boo at it tonight [in a few minutes], but I can't really promise any progress. As always, though, I'll do my best.

Thanks for all the support, everyone. ?
