Holy Cow Welcome back Will, how ya been keeping dude, that connie is sweet and i dont like connies
Thanks Fallen_Warrior. I have been doing a lot better these days than I was
With what I have been doing to this baby hasn't been too much. I like what Khaliban did with the original look, but I have done my best making it look like the model did when everyone first saw it in the first three movies. Minus the battle damage. But even that gives me some ideas. Because I want to make variant registries and stuff for this. But my first goal is to make her more like the refit. Been checking out some of the reference sites and the old movies for some help. One thing I liked on the refit was the lights for the delta and the banner in II and III. It was a little different, but I never saw that on when the model was converted to the "A"
I am even working on some modifications to the "A" textures he made, and try my best to get the illuminations similar to what I am doing with the refit modifications.
For the Refit textures I have the following versions in mind for the illums and stuff:
1) The Motion Picture Look
2) ST II (pre battle where she looked a little aged)
3) ST II/III (post battle)
3) Warp Drive Illums (like the 79 version where there was some blue glow from the nacelles down to the supports)
4) The other 11 Ships (even though a lot of them were destroyed by the time Enterprise got refitted)
5) Modified Illums for the "A"
6) And if I can ever figure it out, Get the lights to blink in game.
Here are some more shots of the model. I rendered these in Poser 6 since they gave a little better look as to what I have been doing. I hope you like what I have done and I should have more soon. :-)
