Ok, your Scimitar MK2, Enterprise E, and Klingon "Bird of Prey". Are the only good ones out of that 2nd batch. Sorry but the rest of em are just .... ugly.
I really do hope you manage to fix them. I know it'd cause me a headache.

Thalaron weapon? Not sure, never seen it fire, just deploy. Not sure how to make the tips glow except maybe a really short range beamers but I don't think even that would work or look good. Also you'd have to find a reference pic for the ship, when deployed.

I know I have to fix those things. Some of'em are really horrendous, I admit.

About the weapon, I'm currently looking at screenies from various ST games, so I maight find it there.

I doubt that considering it was a END GAME weapon. I'm willing to bet it's a lot of GREEN though.

I can't make any sense of that first sentence....

And yes. It'll be green...

Did you not watch the movie the ship was involved in? The weapon is practically a planet killing WMD.

Of course I watched the movie. And it's more like a neutron bomb. It only kills organic material.

I has idea.

An uber Frosch, that renders a ship useless. Would have the same effect as killing all the crew. It would also allow me to fire it only when I want it.

Still makes it an endgame weapon. Kill the entire crew of a ship, a fleet of ships. A whole planet. May not destroy material and only organics, but it's still pretty endgame to me.

Frosch could work. Still needs green though.

Can't you change the Frosch's color?

It gives the option yes. Not sure if it works or not, I haven't tried it myself.

Just so you know: I have a few big tests coming up, so It'll be a while before this is finished. Thank you for your understanding.

Just kidding. Here's the armed and shielded Mk II Scimitar.

Of course, with the Frosch gun idea:

Of course, it can still be improved with colouring and the like.

You can make sections glow using the a custom colored aegis, achieve the green emanation effect.

Taht may not be a bad idea...Thanks Squishy.

I've also reviewed a few more of 'em:

Thou like?

(Don't worry 'bout the pointy pieces, I'll fix 'em before I give a download)

Defiant = bad mirroring. The rest are getting better. However, you really need to get away from using jagged pieces for small, round hulls.

In fact, come to think of that, many of them have bad mirroing.

AllStarZ · Post by **AllStarZ** » Sun Mar 02, 2008 9:48 am

The Defiant still looks bad, and the others aren't much better. The scale you're doing them right now, you won't be able to make them look sufficiently smooth and round as they are in ST.

However, I feel that the Bird of Prey looks better.
