Really wanted to find this ship and 'butcher' it using Pataflafla's Northampton and Chandley textures. Also does anyone have blanks of those saucer textures from Pataflafla's ships? They're pretty class and the FASA collection is looking much the better for his efforts.

I have it, with the textures he did before releasing his D2 high resolution pack.

I think there are still saucer blanks for D/L at Pataflafla's site. If not, than just drop me a line.

Site's down at the mo and I'm tired with splittin' headache so I'm done for now - I'll get the blanks 2moz. Here's my 'efforts' so far on P81's old Kiev - one of my fave FASA ships, if it's scaled properly...

This is early work, as you can see I need to detail the extension behind the saucer and add some detail around the torps. The original textures map so unevenly on the torps BTW. I also replaced the nacelles with P81's third Connie nacelles. All textures so far bashed from Pataflafla's Chandley, expect the torpedo texture which is from his Northampton. Feel free to rip the p!ss out of this as I know it's really cr@p, just wanted to see what I could do with textures beyond renaming ships.

I found a Thurfir at www.multiplayer.it/sfc/ but there was no D/L that I could see for any of the models, I really need to brush up on my Italian B4 the summer...

C'i videamo piu tarde tutti.

I also have the Thurfir. I'll send it if you like.

Just a heads up, I've been planning to retexture the Thurfir, Andor and Swift as well. The Swift will be beyond easy. I've run into some problems with the Andor and Thurfir though because the meshes are even less detailed than the Chandley and Northampton were. I'm beginning to feel like a new mesh is in order for these two models.

Wouldn't want anyone to feel like I was stepping on their toes by doing a similar project. Oh the other hand, at the rate I work it might be next summer before I get an Andor or Thurfir done. lol

If it'll fit into my pitifully small Hotmail acount then could ya send it Pataflafla.

I'll post those pics in a new thread coz I just love the way no one said anything about it. If I ever finish the textures and think they look half decent would you consider having it up on your site Pata? As they are pretty much your textures - the aztec I'm using for the kv.bmp is taken from one of your textures and replicated out to cover a 1024*1024 texture. Also I checked your site and the only blanks you have are from P81's textures - I'm guessing you still have blanks left over from the Chandley and Northampton, do you reckon you could send them to Bungle485@Hotmail.com?

Well, back to the Kijev.

I have been trying to do a updated mesh for the Andor, but so far i ahve failed to make it work, of course I am a novice at modeling, so eventually I'll get there.
