Title: TMP Centaur (requested) ALMOST DONE! First work too :D
Post by: F9th0mega on April 04, 2006, 05:58:56 pm
Mesh = JUST ABOUT DONE! Just needs some touch ups from the more experienced modellers (i tried :P )
Textures = a nice hodge podge of textures from VARIOUS ships :D permissions to come later :D

If ANYONE can finish touchin it up it would be GREATLY appreciated, i cant do textures for shat, and im not great at making faces either 0_0 milkshape is confusing sometimes...

and now for teh money shots...

[edit] man im not good at letting things be :P i moved the shuttle bay down, and shrunk it on the Y, so it has engines now :lol:

ANNND i though of a name... i dont care what its called in the original thread :P Minotaur Class, NX-2220 (greek myth to go with centaur :D )

Please post the schematic pic as well so we can see where it needs tweeking.

only part that needs tweaking is the area in the bottom left pic really, its SLIGHTLY different now, but thats still the only problem :P and as i said, hodge podge textures :P

It looks like to me you just need to move some verts and weld them .  To prevent texture bluring/warping move the non textured poly verts.
Lookin good so far  :thumbsup:

Oh for... ModelsPlease, here http://www.dynaverse.net/forum/index.php/topic,163365408.from1143498223.html is the schematics Omega is working from. Don't you recognise it?

Admittedly, it is more of a TMP Centaur that the design shows. Good first model, though. I think I'll retry my hand at this modelling lark.

I deviated a bit :D creative changes ill call them :D :lol: all i did was move the shuttle bay dow and keep the impulse engines in the normal spot...

isnt that ship impossible in the specs? its got no impulse whatever crystal... (the blue thing)

[edit] Weeeee im getting better :D fixed my errors for the most part :D (add me on msn if you want to help :) white.eagle.14@gmail.com :) )

It's an awesome first attempt. Mine just needs regs. I can re-adjust the impulse engines if you guys think they're too pointy.

Hey Marky, can ya slap some regs on mine ?

I am quite impressed by this model and the idea of a TMP Centaur.

Would you allow this model, upon it's conclusion, to be used in Universe At War?

Mine is done includung the saucer front mount torp, and less pointy imp engines ;) NOW I did some research and the original picture is labeled wrong. The Amerind Class is a Franz Joseph designed scout with 1 nacelle similar to the saladin. THIS ship is the Cerebus Class designed by Russell Nel. FYI Russel Nel also designed the Pleiades Class  and the Sagittarius Class.

So I did my thing.......................

OUTALANCE SHIPYARDS
U.S.S. Cerebus NCC-1606
Cerebus class Frigate

Owner : United Federation of Planets
Class : Heavy Combat Vessel
Availability : Unlimited Deployment
In Service : 2275
Out of Service : 2320
----------------
Built in the 2270's, the Cerebus class was a forerunner of the Centaur class.
Intended to operate with the Constitution, Excelsior and Miranda classes, the Cerebus' where to act in the role of scouts and conduct general support missions during fleet actions.
They where designed to be very small and agile, and as a result the Cerebus has limited weaponry and a relatively poor standard of accommodation.
This has prevented them from being used regularly on long duration missions, a problem which recurred with the Centaur class.

Last teaser prior to release. Regs are about finished and I added phaser turrets to the saucer and ventral pylons.

you shoulda kept the phasers the way they were went you sent me that pic. I kinda liked how they were subtly noticeable with the panneling. Gave an interesting look it it rather then the normal tmp ones. Oh well.

Yeah 9th Omega and myself came across a design called the Saggitarius(basically a centaur with an EntB saucer), but it was a little lack luster so we came up with idea of adding a roll-bar and shuttle bays. Omega did all the work, I just added shuttle bays. Hey 9th Omega I think your new ship deserves a fresh post of it's own  ;)

Hey all,

Well done on the Cerebus, it looks like you had a lot of fun making it. MP, I do know that the Amerind is a (rather silly-looking) single nacelle scout, but I don't like the way it looks so I placed a design of my own in there instead. The Cerebus also isn't quite the ship I envisioned as the model, but it's one of the closest (along with the super destroyer USS New Haven I found somewhere).

I also think it looks better with the standard nacelles instead of the ones in the schematic.

Congrats!
