Looks more like a phase II concept then it does a TOS ship, but it's nice model work for sure  :)

Here you go... I have uploaded them at                    http://imageshack.us/

Its a nice model for sure, and he is doing great work, but he is doing nothing here that can be achieved at the lower poly level that hasnt already been done in my opinion. Still, an excellent mesh, quality work...  ;)

That's why I said this ship needs to be done.  It would look incredible in game, and with the right textures, she would make even the best systems scream in pleasure.

That's becuase the ppl at SciFi-Meshes do CGI, not ingame models. By knowing those guys this mesh might be up to 500k polies, if not higher.

I'd rather see this Constitution "Reboot" be made as a game mesh to be honest. Not that i'm saying the other one looks bad, this one just looks.... Awesome! :D

I have it on good authority through private sources that it's already in the works, at the very least on a to-do list by a very talented and skilled modder.

For the first ship, it needs to be painted in TOS colors and the fins need to be added to the top rear of the nacelles. Other that that it looks great.


For the second, omg that thing is wicked. It looks like what you'd imagine the mirror universe E would be. Way more militaristic and bristling with weapons.

I'm working on a side project remarkably similar to this  ... It wouldn't take much for me to make the appropriate changes/additions ...

Be patient, though ... it's still in the early stages - Primary and secondary hull modelled ... and I've been rather busy lately, lol.

;)

the next question is, if you start with this, what does your refit (1701-a) and miranda end up looking like?
