I was wondering when someone would do this one. I was going to do it myself eventually. I actually have the original model kit for the Liberator.

Will this work in SFC2?

theoreticly she will work better in sfc2. lol

actualy she has been done before.  first by me in 2001-2001 (and it stinks lol)

then by a decent modler who made a very crisp cleen and technicly incorect one imo

so im hoping this will be as close to definative as possible

you have the kit?  the comet one?  you want it?

should i do the scorpio?  that the question that drives me

Have you checked the names of parts of the brk model?
The same thing happened to me and it was that.

The non-brk model it is just a single object named the same as the file (i.e. liberator). But the brk model it is a mesh with differents objects named with a _brk_ and a number in the end.(i.e. liberator_brk_1, liberator_brk_2...etc)

Check the section 1.02.07 in the model tools manual.

Or you can send me the file to mariano_tomaz@yahoo.com

Hope this helps,

Mariano

Yes, its the 1989 Comet Miniatures model kit. I still have it, in excellent condition.

You might also considering making the other variants as well. There was a Destroyer variant that didnt have the three outboard projections, just the drive section.

The Scorpiio was a modified freighter, although it didnt look too bad, it just wasn't the Liberator lol

I'd like to see someone do the Eagle spaceship from Space: 1999 as well. They would be about the size of a PF.

The Liberator, by the way, was a very large ship. In game terms, it has shields, transporters, a lot of hull and cargo space and was designed for deep space exploration as well as combat. Its primary weapon was a neuton blaster housed in the nose of the ship, although I always thought the outboard projections looked more like huge ship mounted Phaser-IVs. This ship should be about the size of a Dreadnought.

Actualy.  the 3 pds were actualy wepons.  the special effetx guys screwded up the timeth they fiered her fron the cone.

the ship is even biger then a dreadnaught,  looking at the size of the a london angainst the liberator in b7 episode to,  then compating the size of the dockong "tube" with the london,  and then a man with the tube,  liberator is about a mile long.

she had not only shealds (force walls) but regeneration in a simaler way to the borg, she also had missles...or at least her sister ship did. so the assumptopn could be made.

the detroyers we much more then just the drive section.  they were bacily a pod with a drive section on the back.

also the "jet engine" type part was a massive "ram scoop"  only the section of the hull bettween this and the noe cone ( not including the nose cone) was habitable.  the rest was engines and the pods were filled with batteries and the neutron blasters.

considering the size of her however there was plenty of room

(i have the blue prints)

basicly a sov would be the length and with of ione of the pods....makes you think.

i also did the destroyer and federation pursuit ships before....but they were sh*t and im starting again lol

some one years ago did a very good eagle and some varients.  look and you will find.


so.....thinking of selling your kit?

You have the blueprints to the Liberator?  :o I just got season one to Blake's Seven on DVD, it just became available in Australia lol. I haven't watched it in years.. somehow my teenagehood memories aren't quite the same as it looks now lol. The BBC was really low budget lol. Some of the screen titles look like they were being held up by hand (they move around a bit lol) Having said that though, its still good british drama, even if it does look like Dr. Who at times lol

So... is this model available for download anywhere yet?
