This is my first attempt at kitbashing. I thought to post this for opinions and advice. Right now I have yo use
the original brk_mod as Milkshape wont do them.

looiks good, only one problem... the insignia is backwards

Thanks guys, your right Tus thats because the texture was done by schtupp. I rotated it to fit the
mesh, now the reversed insignia.

I can't do my own lettering yet.

Now, my personal suggestion would be to make each of your models a single object, without any polies that can't be seen from the outside deleted, and the whole mesh made a single element and object (elements are made up by groups of polies that are attached (i.e. each poly doesn't have a single vert that's not connected to the polies around it -if it doesnt make sence, just tell me)

Thanks guys I'll keep it in mind and try flipping it again.

btw ur problem is easier to fix than you think.. u just need to alter the uvw map for the saucer (ie flip it horizonatally) i think that is possible in milkshape....

I have tried flipping texture and remapping looks ok in milk, but is still reversed in game.

Chris Johnson · « **Reply #9 on:** April 03, 2005, 03:37:44 pm »

Why not "flip" the texture itself (horizantally) in MS paint? It'll look backwards, but just right in-game... Or was that done already?

Oh well. In any case, with a few tweaks here and there, I say you have a fine-looking ship anyhow. She looks somewhat TOS, yet somewhat TMP, but alright. The Okinawa-class is one of my favorite non-canon designs, and as I said, with some tweaks you'll do her justice in the TOS-era.
