This is an older one of his.. but I just got it on the HD the other day again.. so hey.

This is still in .LWO right now while I work on the registries (wanted to see what they'd look like with the ol' Starfleet standard look) so did up a quick test view of it from a few angles. Think I like it..

Also, put up another of Atolm's works on the site.. but I'm going to update the website before I post a download link.. noone seemed all that excited to see it when it was completed before, so there shouldn't be a big whopping demand to get a link up for download either..

This was a request by me to Atolm for a Vorlon..

Work still progressing on everything else.. still having "fuin" getting the maw effect with the MDM..

you know some of these little connie kitbashes might look good with the sporty yellow FCA textures if they're mapped the same. I should try it. And what is that on the back of the drive hull? side torpdeo?

Drive hull? Do you mean the primary hull (saucer), or the secondary hull (engineering hull)? I'm assuming the latter, in which that'd be another torpedo point..

Great model, looks like a perfect Fire Support Cruiser, the only criticism I have is the extra Torpedo points on the secondary hull, it takes away from the sleek, deadly exterior.

If you are talking about the Yellow CA and Exceli did then No that are not mapped the same. They would require retexturing or reappling the ones I did to the model (both could be allot of work depending on a few issues). its not that it can not be done but would require time to do, and someone willing to do it.

No that's Khaliban's connie - a much superior work all round, unfortunately the mapping of the 2 ships is rather different - this one is P81's connie. Why do people always think P81's stuff is the best?

Besides it's fairly obvious what is P81 and what isn't - the massive levels of bump-mapping that over-emphasise all the shading are key indications of his textures.

VERY clean- thanks for the work! Keep us posted....

Wow Alec-those textures look photo realistic. Azel the mesh is awesome as well. Looks like it was made by someone who has been doing it a couple years.

atheorhaven · « **Reply #11 on:** September 08, 2003, 12:27:25 pm »

Actually.. have some better shots for the update.

Mesh is now in .MOD along with hp/dp'ing, break mod is done, think the only thing to do now are the credits and it's ready to go..

Atolm.. contact me and tell me where you'd like this uploaded..

Rogue NineCH · « **Reply #12 on:** September 08, 2003, 01:13:49 pm »

WOW! I gotta have this one! Fire Support Cruisers are my favorite, and I can't wait to raise hell with this baby.

Ok Alec, Upload it by your site

Second...James the Mesh is not mine...It was a Kitbash that Mackie did for me... it was based on my drawing
that I did awhile back

atheorhaven · « **Reply #14 on:** September 08, 2003, 08:24:00 pm »

Okay, it's up at my site...

http://www.themackiestuff.com/atheorhaven/html/userfiles/ships/trek/sfc2/ophidian.zip

And you'll find the original textures in their own subdirectory under the main one.. (this was Atolm also has his originals out with his ship)..

I'll use this as the fnca in my game. I know it's not exactly to spec for that, that's just what I see/feel when I look at it. Nice model guys.

atheorhaven · « **Reply #17 on:** September 09, 2003, 12:31:16 am »

Actually, it should play well there. I almost *always* put FCL in the credits if I don't know where something is going to fit. But I used FDN hp/dp's (moved around a bit to more fit the model) to cover almost any placing someone wants to put it in.

So go for it, and post a pic here so I can see it ripping into some badass alien.
