Federation FBB Request
« on: February 01, 2009, 03:37:04 pm »
Hi guys. I was wondering if one of the talented kit-bash specialists on this site would be willing to entertain a request. I'm an avid TMP era fan, and I've been using Fallen Warriors Belisarius Dreadnought (GaFY's retextured version), as my FBB. But I was wondering if someone would be willing to mate the primary hull/saucer from the Belisarius (just as it is, with the warp nacelle, 4 "megaphasers" and all) and use it to replace the primary hull saucer on the TMP-era Starleague. Both are available on Battleclinic with the Gotafarmyet white re-texture.

I know this is a bit of a fanboy request, so it's cool if no one likes the idea. I will not take offense. I just figured it couldn't hurt to ask.  ;)

I'll give it a whack.   What do you want to call it?  Name and registry?

Thank you, DeepThought! After some deep thought (no pun intended), I like NCC-3600 Warhammer. Cheesey, but I dig it, lol. My FBB's in SFC-OP are renamed 3600 Wahammer, 3601 Warcry, 3602 Wardance, 3603 Warmonger, and 3604 Warcraft.

Long ago, in a different lifetime, I ran an old FASA Trek RPG adventure called "The Waraxe Incident"... so I'm cool with "Warhammer".

Do you know if the blanks for these textures are online anywhere? It would be handy but not critical.

DeepThought, I just found these on Battleclinic: http://www.battleclinic.com/docks/dock/1461-Blank-Registries-for-P81-models-details.html#1461

They are blank Textures for P-81's TMP Enterprise, Reliant. and some of his other works. Hope that helps.

They might.  If not, I can cope.  Here's what I have so far... is this what you had in mind?

She's done... and she's a big one!  All zipped up she's about 13 MB.  I'll e-mail you a link... can't post it on Battleclinic until I get all the readme's and permissions sorted out.

That looks terrific! Thank you very much for bashing this model so fast, DeepThought. This is perfect as a battleship or heavy dreadnought.

It is simply amazing how much mileage those old texture sets get.
Just to make it easy you don't need premission from me to us this texture set, they are in the free to use category.

If you are going for the SFB FBB asthetic, shouldn't the saucer section have two warp engines? Perhaps one of the model kitbashers can alter the present model that one extra step?

There's already several kitbashes of that model available on Battleclinic that use GAFY's textures.  Also, WZ made the Mars Refit, and I made my Mars kitbash of WZ parts that GAFY retextured.

No, that wasn't the asthetic I was after. I just liked the idea of a Star League with a Miranda saucer and 3rd nacelle. I'm not a fan of 4 nacelled starships; I have no idea why. DeepThought did a great job on this one.

I could easily duplicate the center nacelle and put the new pair on the upper 'megaphaser' pylons.  I should probably change the textures on their outer sides to the non-glowing intercoolers (or whatever they are).  I wasn't in a hurry to get permissions and release this, but if someone likes, I can include the three and four nacelle versions in a release.  Let me know.


Cheers,

Nicely done I'd use that as a DNH.  ;D  For the FBB I'd like to see a 4 warp engine version ala SFB.   :)

Not exactly the same flathead target we're looking for but thanks anyway. We aren't really asking for a purist SFB inspired version.
