I'm all for it, especially now that my skill has just taken a great leap forward :)

Another post-edit pic, starring the I.S.S. Enterprise-E this time round.

Oh wow I love the red back light of that ship. Remembers me of the excelsior, except the red colour xD

Ah btw, this picture is just great, really

ISS Ent E looked good. I wonder who could do an ISS Voyager.

Decided to take a small break from working on Grand Finale to do a small little side project mod. Once again, it will be the Galaxy-Class, and this time it's completely focused on the Enterprise-D.

I'm taking a leaf out of DJ Curtis' book and creating a few variations of the Enterprise as she has appeared. My mod is going to have four variations:

-Season 1-2 Enterprise
-Season 3-7 Enterprise
-Generations Enterprise
-Unending Frontier Enterprise

Pics of three variations below, with a few post-edits

That's some beautiful work. I would've thought however you wouldn't have added the phaser strips to the Unending Frontier version, to have it look a bit different to the series Galaxies.

This is some really top notch work here mate, truly great. If they were bigger I'd probably have them as my desktop wallpaper. :thumbsup:

If you really want a nice season 1-2 Galaxy..you need to make the saucer's edge skinnier..and try and widen out the secondary hull a bit..as wall as making the pylons and such skinnier too...but looks good for a start bro!

edit: p.s. darken the Arboretum windows on the 1/2..they werent lit the first few season..not until the new 4.5ft model was built for season 3-7

Well, I have at times considered making her a Venture Galaxy, but something kept holding me back. I might just change that. :thumbsup:

Yeah, about that.... I'm really bad with modeling programs. I've only used MS3D when I try to convert some models. This little project is really meant to be texture variations, so the best I could do is darken those Arboretum windows. :sweat:

A little section scaling couldn't be that hard to do. Maybe you should post a thread about it and see if anyone can do it for you?:thumbsup:

The pics look great man. I'm loving your custom version.:yum:

The trick to making thoughs kind of changes is to select vertexes not polies. Then rescale or move.

Update: Starfox has graciously helped me with the little model issue, so all I've got to do now is darken the 1-2's windows and get up the bluer Generations Enterprise. I've got a good technique, just needs a bit of working. Pics of my Seasons 1-2 and STUF Enterprise's below with some shuttles of their time.

Okay, once again, more progress!! I've changed the project to Canon Enterprise Variants, because I'm going to re-release the STUF Enterprise at a later date.

All three canon variations of the Enterprise (excluding the 3-nacelled All Good Things variant) are included.
-Seasons 1-2; brighter impulse and warp nacelle lighting, thinner pylons and neck
Early1-2.png
-Seasons 3-7; standardized look, red impulse lighting
Standard.png
-Generations; new impulse lighting effect, blue hull colorization
Generations.png

All of these variations will feature new lightmap schemes using elements from ones released by Jetfreak and Tyler. Thank you both kindly, :worship:
Just needs a little .odf scripting, readme and credits given, and the pack should be on her way within the next few days. :thumbsup:

They are really coming along, very nice attention to detail. I never knew there was a difference in the impulse colouring between the early season and the latter ones. :)

ARISE NECROTHREAD. SERVE THE EMPIRE.

Firstly, I'd like to throw out a big thank you to all who have wished me a happy birthday. :ty: Considering the events that are about to take place, it's gonna be a good one.

Secondly, it's been quite a while since we've been in this thread, hasn't it? So for our little revival, I now re-present the terrifying empress herself, the I.S.S. Enterprise-D, wonderfully redone by Jetfreak. Thank you my friend. :thumbsup:

Again, thank you all very much, not just for the Happy Birthdays, but for being such a wonderful and friendly community. I hope to be a part here for a long time :)

NECROTHREAD. AWAKEN!!! *kicks*

Well, now that I'm back again, I've once again started work on the various projects and stories I've left unfinished. First up, a little something for Borg_Queen staring the Borg Queen.

The Romulans valiantly attempt to fight off the invading Borg swarm, but with the sudden arrival of their flagship, the U.S.S. Borg Queen, even the mightiest Warbirds falter under the combined force of Borg weaponry

Invasion.png

Next up, I was planning a little side story for STUF, and as I was taking shots, I got the Enterprise in a perfect pose of firing her weapons. Took a number of shots. Story should hopefully be up in a week or so.
