Anyone know his permission policy regarding conversions? I've been emailed by someone wanting to use them in an armada mod (if I aint lost the email).

Thulls hasn't responded to my recent hails.

However, Thulls has been sighted in/on dynaverse forums but the LEGEND remains as elusive as Bigfoot, sea serpents and other awe inspring entities. Perhaps he'd respond to  a PM?

I hope all is well with Thulls.

Qapla!

Hi all, I'm still around  ;)

With regards to any conversions or kitabashes of my stuff, I've only ever asked for the correct credits to be given really. There are a couple of things floating around I'm trying to get 'corrected' shall we say but they're nothing major.

Hi KF, sorry for not getting back to your mails, I've only recently got tinternet connection at my new place so have a HUGE list of e-mails to trawl through. Add to that my Graphics Card going pop last month and no money until next week to replace it with something decent (currently using an old, 1st gen Radeon DDR  :o )

In between dodging the bullets of life I have managed to get a few models up and done with a some more in the pipeline soon...

Lyran Jaguar CW anyone?



or maybe a new Lyran Admin Shuttle?



Have also been looking at picking up work on the series of fighters I started. Dug out my old Max backup CD and still have the A10 and the Klingon/Lyran Z-1 I started so they just need texturing. I also wanted to do a SWAC shuttle (not sure it'd be that relevant to the game though) but couldn't find a decent TMP era shuttle to base it on (pre-made cos I was trying to be lazy) so ended up having to make one myself anyway:

Federation Type-5 Admin Shuttle


Looks really cute in the game, in a manly way of course!!

Also, finally, got around to finishing of some new Gorn's I'd started a while back. I got the idea from one that surfaced here a while ago, by Atolm I think, with semi circle discs and a pale blue/turquoise kind of colour. Also happened to be watching the new series of BSG at the time so that gave some extra influences, some kinda SFB/SFC/Atolm/BSG hybrid thing I guess, looks better than it sounds  ;D

Gorn Allosaurus CA



The Gorn BC (CA with all the refits) is also up as a seperate model. Called it the 'Allosaurus Grandis'. There's no additional name as per SFB or SFC that I can find and the BCH is the Allosaurus Imperator, so it seemed to fit. Looks the same but has different weapon mounts and correct Hardpoints for it

Gorn Allosaurus Grandis BC



I've got the Gorn CL pretty much ready to go, just needs HP and BRK mod doing, and the Gorn DN is getting there with only a little bit more texturing needed. The ISC Destroyer is in the same boat as the Gorn CL, needs HP and BRK mod, and I've corrected the BRK mods for the Lyran CA and CC as I noticed whilst testing the GCA against them that they didn't split up when exploding, oops.

I think that's about it, I did make a start on the LDW, but I need to do a couple of variants for the LCW yet. Then will push on with more Gorn and someday try to resolve the many issues I have with the Romulan BB I started (and walked away from cos it hurt my head!)

Anyway, back off into the mists of time just to annoy KF, got a meeting with Elvis, Alf and the men from Omicron Persei 9 (Bigfoot was asked to leave due to 'body odour' issues)

While I'm still not fond of Gorn SFB designs (dinner plates with Flash Gordon warp rockets), I like how you've made 'em even more alien-like than your previous ones.  Although I'm still partial to the stock ships, I might give your new ones a try should they be released.

C'mon Thulls, let's not wait another year to get the Gorn fleet out, LOL.

Some quick kitbash suggestions:

GFF: GCA Command pod and arms plus one warp engine

GDD: GCA Command Pod and arms plus two warp engines

GCX: Current GCA or GBCH with three warp engines

GDN/BB: Current GBCH with three/four warp engines and one/two middle pods respectively

TUGS: GFF/GDD with one or two warp engines (light/heavy) with one or two pods.

Yeah, I know I can dream....

Qapla!

Don't know if you ever got my earlier message, but your work got very nice comments from the conversion.




Was my desktop for months!


Those new Gorn look great and I'm looking forward with excitement for the day they'll be released!

Now that I've seen that mesh "close up" so to speak, it's truly inspired.

He's maintained the Charm of a SFB mesh BUT a more modern look instead of dinner plates and stubby wings with way too much angular shapes.

I made this render/screenshot for the GORN arc of Skeet's "A Thin Veneer" of how the Minbari mess up and attck a Federation "colony" (cause their simply MORE Humans). Unfortunately Kilgons, Gorn and a few other (Diplomats) are Killed. Thus lots of people are out for blood...

 Thus11s meshes were listed and credited just underneath posting link so not to mar the beauty of the image!  ;D

Oh and my tribute to Tribbles, since we were talking about WMD's... (photo on Google, image page 29 I think)

Those Gorn ships are stunning! Excellent job. I like that they aren't the simplistic shapes most SFB ships are but still maintain their SFB arrangement.

I'll second that. My entire Hydran, Lyran and Romulan fleets are comprised of his models and I am dying to get my hands on the rest of the Gorns...
