WIP...

[Centurus]

After 4 and a half years, I'm slowly starting to figure out a couple things when it comes to making models from scratch.  I am still a huge noob at this, but it's something that I can say I built on my own.

The mesh, so far, is how I want it to be.  I just thought I'd show this here since D.net is still undergoing maintenance.

[Centurus]

P.S.

Hull and neck meshes total about 2800 polys.

Looks good so far, looks like a cross-breed of the Connie and Excelsior

Actually you're half right.  It's a designed that I've worked on before heavily based on the Excelsior.

good start m8.. keep going and clean as you go

Agreed, nice start there dude!

[FourChan]

I can't wait to see what the saucer and nacelles look like. But a great start.

[Centurus]

It's gonna be a long wait, unfortunately.  I really don't have much of any idea how to do a great many things, so I'm pretty much flying blind at this point.

This isn't gonna be a very fancy design, that much I can assure you.  It'll be simple, as most good things are.

Well it looks like the fleet crazy is making his own ship
Very nice start Cent.
Nice and clean as always.

*smacks GMAN with a rubber chicken and turns him into Starr Jones*   :lol:  Just kidding.

Well, I made my own ship a long time ago, the Resurrection.  And one day I hope to rebuild her properly.  But that's gonna be a long while.

I'm just trying to make a higher quality version of a ship I worked on a long time ago.  Could never bash a new version that matched it quite right, and always intended to go back one day and replace all the low poly parts with newer, higher poly parts.  Slowly trying to do that now.

Looks kinda Chabot-ey. just kiddin. Looks good.

*whistles innocently and looks off into space*  You want oatmeal raisin or chocolate chip?

Chocolate chip sounds nice. Don't forget the milk.

Sorry for being kinda off topic guyz. Just a little bit of fun.

Ask anyone that knows me well enough, and they'll tell you I've made my reputation on lousy kitbashes and being off topic.  I personally don't mind it.

*slams Dalekanium2 into a chair, forces his mouth open, puts a giant funnel in, then pours a few gallons of milk and then hands him a truckload of chocolate chip cookies*

Besides, you're the only one that guessed what I'm doing.

[Dalek]

Don't slam me! You'll smash my thin bones!

I'm good at guessing...

*falls out of his chair, laughing, barely managing to reach up to the keyboard to type: "Extremism in its worst form", before lapsing into unconsciousness and being taken to a hospital with a concussion from hitting the desk on the way down*

anyway, in all seriousness, that is looking INCREDIBLE. nice job, can't wait to see what's going to happen to this new ship.

*rummages through Captain_April's pockets, pulls out his wallet, removes the cash and cards and other things, puts them back into April's pockets, then takes the wallet*

Nice wallet.   

When it comes to the ship, I know I can make a new torpedo pod/pylon set, which I plan on doing next.  After that, I'm somewhat screwed.  I'll probably just bash a new saucer together, but the warp engines are another matter.

guys, at least try and keep the thread spam-free lol
you can have all the spammy fun you can endure in the FreePost forum ;)

[Centurus]

What do you think is filling up the cargo holds of the ship I'm trying to build?   8)

Besides, I'm basically hijacking my own thread.   :lol:

[Aeries]

is this a WIP or a role play thread? Either way I like it.
