Neat ship! I like it.

Mackie, nice ship. I'd love to download it, but I don't see a link.

And, no, you modeling skills are impressive.

Mackie · « **Reply #3 on:** May 21, 2005, 04:22:55 pm »

Thats a pretty sweet model, I think your allowed to show some pride in it bro...

Victory · « **Reply #5 on:** May 21, 2005, 07:03:06 pm »

Very nice, looks kinda like a transition ship b/t the Ambassador and Galaxy class. It looks really good dude.

I agree with Victory. It looks like a Galaxy prototype. Good job.

Chris Johnson · « **Reply #7 on:** May 21, 2005, 08:32:51 pm »

To me, it looks like a predescessor to the Galaxy-class rather than being a prototype of, as the U.S.S. Galaxy herself is just like her sister ships, although when I saw the two views of the untextured render of this model some years ago (and sketched a drawing back then of what I thought she looked like), I just thought it was some mass-producable Galaxy-class prototype, some new class designed to be easier or more resource-friendly. I pondered what happened to this model, and am finally pleased to see her again, and she is beautiful. I think you did a wonderful job on her, and hope upon her release that she has hardpoints ready for SFC2.

thanks yall but them all thanks should be going to LC amaral (Sp) for texturing the ship so ifinally could get it out. its pretty much done now , ive added pylon side phasers and and tweaked the textures around a bit at points (twists and stretches due my modeling ;p). theres still one problem with the textures (Again due my modeling) but i hope to be able to solve it sooner or later, a day or two.

What I meant by "prototype" was that it looks like a concept design for the Galaxy class. You've seen some of the Intrepid prototype models, haven't you? I figured this would fit in the same category.

Chris Johnson · « **Reply #11 on:** May 22, 2005, 12:38:19 pm »

Well yeah, you have a point there now that I think of it that way rather than being stuck in the ST universe way of thinking. I remember some concept drawings of the Ent-D and a prototype model that was closer to the final design (but not quite there yet)...

You see, when an Ambassador and an Intrepid love each other very, very much...

j/k, Mackie, looks cool.

Looks real nice, Mackie. You and LC did a splendid job.

As far as it's lineage goes, I see possibly a Galaxy era (or slightly later) CC. To each his own, I guess.

its still gonna take amoment, i need to end my drinking binge first. so just wait g_damnit :p

Chris Johnson · « **Reply #24 on:** May 26, 2005, 08:09:31 pm »

I find it quirky that the pictures have little-to-no 3D perspective (I think that's the pet peeve I was trying to describe years ago when I first saw pics such as those that authors displayed). But other than that, I can still see the beauty of that ship.

Mackie · « **Reply #25 on:** May 27, 2005, 08:13:31 am »

here is the http://www.the-tcs.net/dldir/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=207 sfc2 version.. my heads gonna blow apart any minute now... well i deserve it. ;p
