Titan ... new skins ... section 2 (several picts)
« on: January 15, 2005, 05:55:01 pm »
I'm almost done with the first section of the WIP on the Titan new skins.  As soon as we finish the underside of the primary hull we should be able to start tweaking and adding detail.

don't be too ashamed, at least Pimp My Ride is a decent show (not like the rest of the **** they show on MTV now).

Anyway that is major Pimpage of an awsome model.  I like the blue tint.

The blue checkered pattern you are using, you might want to add more to the pattern. Best way is with noise in the blue range of colour to give it more ofthat TNG movie look to it, looks kind of like TMP hull plates currently. The rest seems to coming along absolutily fine.
People always said they wanted the government to listen to them and now the government is listening, taking notes and names...and coming to see you soon!

Remember the axiom of big government bureaucrats: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. When, finally, under the crushing weight of taxes and regulation, it stops moving, subsidize it.

Wow!  I really like the new skins.  I really like the deep blue on top of the saucer section.

Thanks guys ...

my techniques are still a little rough ...  (considering the visions I see in my poor little noggin !)  But, all things considered if they continue to develope as we do this in sections .. I'm hoping to get this done (hehehe  one of these days) ..

The next step will be to figure out how to make this model work in the game.  That means hard points ..  phasers ..  and working torps.

I can only imagine what you senior designers are capable of .....  doing the whole thing ..  mesh ..  paint job ...  and the rest !!

thanks for all of the encouragement guys ...  any good input is needed to continue to grow.

that is great work man!!!
I would really put the direction of your tweaking on the sides of the secondary hull,  and the ventral aft cut-away that just has black lines....
keep at it
The saucer is perfect...could use a few details...but that's just me
the nacelles ore sweet
but you need to make the secondary hull match the saucer in its details and level of them

Thanks Azel ..   your input is understood ...  and taken to heart.  You have touched upon one of the very things that is in definite need of attention.  The secondary shuttle bay is one of those areas as well.  We almost could use a little more detail on the mesh there as well.  But that would be up to Sandman. 

I deeply appreciate your input Azel ....  ( I've kinda been wonderin' how ya felt about this phase of the development).  I hope that the final draft will do justice to the hard work you and Sandman have already devoted to this project.

thanks

You know what'd really ice this cake?

Pennants and insignia  8)


Couple of tiny "USS TITAN NCC-76542"s on the nacelles, maybe some thin red lines around the impulse engines and shuttlebays, perhaps a starfleet arrowhead pennant with those red lines behind it (with the name + reg text inside) along the length of the secondary hull, maybe on the nacelles...

That, and a couple of dimmed out window's, and she'd be fully pimped  ;D

Alternate universe:  Khan was banished for preserving the peace. The Genesis device was really a super weapon and kirk had planned to use it on the klingons. Chekov found the Botany Bay and khan hijakced and killed the evil reliant crew in an effort to destroy the genesis device.    Ahh i love it :D The alternate universe rocks.
