The Repulse and Renown, Variants of the Reliant!
« on: September 05, 2003, 12:01:49 am »
I only have two pics of these shps since the front pic is all you need to see the changes I have made to the mesh.  The name and registry changes you can see on the model itself.  If you are wondering if you have seen these before, just think of the Miranda base model and the Knox Varaint by P81.  I used his Reliant to make these two, I ahve been meaning to do this for months, so I figured why not get it done and over with. Hope you like them.

Here is the link to get them.   Rogue Shipyards

The Renown

Think you could squeeze in a Saratoga & Bozeman, and a Lantree alternate registry for the repulse? I've been waiting for a matching set to go with P81's stuff for along time. I might know someone who could do the registrey change if you aren't interested in taking the time to do it.

You'll have to refresh my memory on the Saratoga and the Bozeman, and what registry number for the Lantree?

Saratoga was sisco's ship destroyed by the borg, it had 2 large death ray looking cannons on the side (they had dishes) And the bozeman was from cause and effect, the one that kept colliding with the enterprise's nacelle. I'll find some pix or what not if you need them, wont be that had to dig on these.

Another repluse registrey could be Brattain 21166 from tkyens rift in TNG.
Bozeman is 1941

Saratoga 31911 for sisco's version  (or 1937 from "The Voyage home")

(I lvoe this startrek encyclopedia...hehe)

Whoops, forgot the lantree, 1837

If you can get me some pics I'll see what I can do, although it will be awhile before I can start on them.  I have the Andor up next and I want to get it done first.

I am afraid the best I can do as far as cannon would be these:
http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/schematics/starfleet_ships2.htm

General side profiles, which basicly should be all you need to make the saratoga cannons and bozmen pods, since the rest is what you already have. I don't believe the saratoga variant was ever shown, though I thought there was a flashback in either voyager with 7of9 or ds9 where some battles were shown with the borg containing other ships and even klingons, opening up a big debate on exactly how many cubes were at wolf 359 ect... Though I have not seen any pictures or articles about those flashbacks. But that would be the only place I can think of to find a saratoga variant. Otherwise, startrek australia has some.

Also it appears I was wrong on the brattain. It is in the encyclopedia as a lantree/repulse type, but apparently was clearly shown witha  rollbar in the show and was mislabled Brittian. Oh well.

Rogue, every time I try to download from your site, I get a "file not valid" from my WinZip. I have never had any problems downloading from your site before, but now I cannot download anything from your site. Any ideas?

I am using WinRAR to compress my files now, it does it much better.  Like on my Wilkerson, Winzip would make the file size about 5.03 MB while WinRAR does it at 4.60 MB  That doesn't sound like much on an idividual basis, but it really makes a difference when you have a bunch of files approaching that size.  I am looking at other providers and maybe when I switch I can have both.  Here is the website for WinRAR

http://www.rarlab.com/

They have an evaluation copy you can get D/L for 30 or 45 days I forget which.

He uses WinRAR as the compression method. WinZip can not open these files, but WinRAR can open zip files.

So you need WinRAR to unpack his ships.

You can uninstall winace or winzip if you get winrar, cuz winrar opens all of them.

the first Saratoga in STIV is not the same Saratoga, it had the conventional rollbar like the Reliant.

Proper Saratoga pics here: http://www.etopiaplanitia.com/Starships/Miranda%20Class%20III/ some interesting detail that no one's ever spotted on the 'cannon'

Awsome. Those cannons will pack some poly but It'll be worth it.

Captain Ron, Starforce, & Rogue: Thanks for letting me know about WinRar. Strangely enough, I'd never even heard of it! It's acually a nice utility.
