Klingon Carrier
« on: December 21, 2008, 06:10:33 pm »
So we have this Christmas contest at a2files and I starting making this, I am making a carrier becuase I was inspire by Smiley's Britain class, the reason it's Klingon and the textures look like that is because I fell in love with the textures from Raven's E7. It's only 2000+ polies so I dont expect rave reviews here but I'm quite happy so far. I am naming it Notqa'jev which according to a site I found means big, black bird storm... a bit of poetic license and it's storm of crows class.

Humm...now I know what I am competing against.  lol

The ships lokks great and the textures are top notch.  I think Raven needs to write us up a little tutorial on texturing Klingon ships

 ;D Nice. I take it this is a Post/TNG design?

yeah early post TNG, I reckon they'd be pumping these out soon after the romulans start dropping Norexans.

updates, well today I did a lot of work underneath finishing of the pods and neck, also made a start on the upper/inner wings.

Textures make the ship mate, and it looks great.

Looks real good. Shows that you don't need a lot of polies to make a good looking model.

Thanks for the positive comments all ;)

well yes, I'm going to make something a little larger in polies next time... it's been pointed out that it looks a little flat.

I've recently got time to work on this again so expect further updates. Fallen Warrior has been incredibly helpful and made me replace the windows at gunpoint.

I have just started continuing my Klingon Carrier, I redid the windows, thanks to Fallen Warrior for his help, he made me redo the windows at gunpoint.

Looks real nice. I would think that the Klingons would have less windows, though. Usually in groups, rather than lining the hull like that. I'm no TNG expert though. The newer designs might well be that way and I've never paid attention. Great work, anyway.

It looks like you are using one area of the testure sheets to cover the outer edges and flats o n the sides. You might want to consider using multiple areas for this instead. One it allows for easier changes and two it breaks up the appearence better makes it look less repeative.

Other than that I like the looks so far
People always said they wanted the government to listen to them and now the government is listening, taking notes and names...and coming to see you soon!

America-Not the land of the free anymore...

Remember the axiom of big government bureaucrats: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. When, finally, under the crushing weight of taxes and regulation, it stops moving, subsidize it.

Outstanding for a TNG era Klingon Carrier. Do you have any TMP era designs coming up?

Cool design!  Do the flight decks run the length of the hull, or are they four separate bays?
