Opened up my file of ships to do, picked at random and hit this one. I think it's coming along nicely...warning though, it's 5614 polys. Took me a little more than 2 hours to mesh it out. Now for the agony of texturing.

It's always nice to see people building models of Starfleet Museum ships. Keep us posted.Post by: James Formo on March 30, 2003, 11:58:15 pm
Also glad your back is better. I imagine it will take a month for it to be fully up to speed. Its hard to rest a back. It gets used for just about everything we do.

You're meshing skills are just rockin' along man. I'm getting left in the dust!

James, my back has been bad since I was in the Army...medical discharge. Told me I stood a good chance of being in a wheelchair by the time I'm 35...34 now.
Figure every day I'm able to move around is a good day. 
LS, Thanx for the encouragement...from a modeller of your caliber, it's high praise indeed.
Pata, my meshing skills are better, but my texturing skills are lagging. You do more work with textures than meshing; I do more meshing (should see some of the stuff on my hd that isn't textured). From the stuff I've seen, you're not that far behind me, yet I'm lightyears away from your texturing skills.

WOW!!! No that is a smooth mesh. I didn't know there was a Pre-Tos ship that looked like that. Reminds me of the TNG Trident (Obviously because of the nacelle config.)

Hope that gives you enough info, Pataflafla.
Oh, and good job on the mesh, Sandman, very detailed.

Thanx!! Didn't get much done last night...back still bothering me; was only able to work for 4 hours yesterday before my back was hurting so bad I could hardly breath. Anyway, started on them dam textures and got a little done...no pics as I'm on my wifes machine; I use hers to chk things in the morning while waiting to take kids to bus stop. Hopefully will be able to do more later tonight. I'll keep ya'll posted.
