The "ribbed" look on the "neck" gives her a more distinct feeling, like a work-in-progress to the final revolutionary design of the Excelsior-class, which shares barely anything in common to other styles of ship designing in her era, or so was the thought back then.

Yeah.. sorry again for the long delay.

It is finished, but it's not as pretty as I'd like.. the secondary hull is still pretty rough and there is still some texture distortion on it on the secondary hull.

But it's definitely in a better state now.. and I'm going to try an experiment here to see if my buddies' server is up and running (the main reason why I've not been posting pix lately is due to a Mackie-space issue).  :p

If this works, you should see these test imgs.. if not, you'll get a lot of red X's..



And just to be sure, I'll attach the renderings I did of the ship to keep it relevant.. if the imgs work, I can put the ship up for download as well..

All right, it's up on Mani's FTP server... if I have it linked correctly here, it should be:

ftp://67.136.232.124/atheorhaven/TOS_Excelsior.zip

Hope that that's right.  :)

If not, get onto the FTP server, you should find a folder up there with my name on it, go in there and you should see it...

Help! 

I can't get to the ftp site - I think I've got all of my setting correct, but I keep getting "Can't open data connection" errors in Mozilla.  In IE - I'm getting "can't find server"

As long as she's used and enjoyed, I'm happy.  :)  Screenies of it being used ingame by anyone.... I'm estatic.  That's pure gold for me... so if anyone ever gets the idea to send me some screenshots and are worrying about it filling my Inbox... I have a Gmail account and I store all my email locally.  Feel free, please!  :D

I'd love to see the ship get into scrapes, and am sitting here without any new screenies from any ship that I've worked on for almost 2 years now.  :p

atheorhaven mind if i try a quick retexture for a giggle as i cant do any huge ammounts of work as sorting out my new house (most recent additions to people living with me is my freind russel and his 3 childern who i should be gagging soon and tying to the chairs:P ) but the textures should be nice and quick

Go for it... I followed my usual tradition on this one of using Atolm's own textures as a basis and built them up.. Doing this from scratch textures, I'd have gone for something more in line with Lord Schtupp's work.  :D

You'll find some weird texture mapping on this though, be forewarned.  ;)
