This is the Legacy Class mesh created by kaden. I started mapping and texturing this ship a few weeks ago, and since school has now started, I have less time to work on it. So far, I have the top saucer, bridge module, and parts of the engineering hull textured with alpha channels. I used the high-res blueprints as a template, then I made the textures from scratch. Enjoy these pics!

Thanks for the cookies.

I almost forgot to note-- the original mesh did not have any phaser arrays modeled in. I am adding those.

its my mesh btw

are you going to make the textures look a bit more realistic? at the moment its just looking like the drawings, but very nice so far with the windows and phasers

Nice, I can't wait to see the Nacelles pan out.

Well this ship is a combination of the Intrepid, and Sovereign classes. As I recall, Voyager didn't have that much surface detail. With the variants I've seen, there wasn't that much detail.

Doesn't mean you can't add some. ;)

I disagree. I think this ship is shaping up perfectly as it is. In fact, one thing I dislike about the Sovereign Class is that it looks TOO detailed in certain areas. Especially on the secondary hull.

Good job Wiley. You deserve a cookie for this one.

it's very true to Kaden's original work. To me, that's a good thing.

Aeries · « **Reply #13 on:** August 22, 2008, 02:54:45 AM »

Nice stuff, Wiley.

CptBenSisko · « **Reply #14 on:** August 22, 2008, 08:43:23 AM »

I also agree on the surface detail...but possibly a little more contrast on the aztec would make everyone happy...I can't wait to see this ship completed..its a perfect heavy cruiser style for the late 24th to early 25th century ship...

moed · « **Reply #15 on:** August 22, 2008, 07:31:51 PM »

Detail is already excellent.

Awesome job on this.

I meant that if he wanted to, he could. I personally agree that it looks perfect as is so far.

i think a spec map showing off the aztecing a bit would make it look great. the ships meant to be that enterprise A white colour

Technerd89 · « **Reply #18 on:** August 24, 2008, 03:01:53 AM »

i think that the large observation windows are just a little to "blue", try desaturating them a little bit. other than that, great work. i have been looking forward to this ship for quite a while

I wished I could do someting like that. But I can't. I was only the one that asked if someone could bring it ingame.
Kaden is the one how need's the get all the credits. Nice start on it. I can't wait to see the final version.
