The Galaxy and The Prometheus

(Click thumbnail images for larger version)

Polygon Count (triangles): 4,888 / 6,882
Defuse Mapping: None.
Light Mapping: Everything.
Normal Mapping: Nope.
Ship Builder Hardware Mounts: Yep.
In-Game Hull Size: Large.
Time spent "making it so" : 1 hour / 2 hours.

Here is my obligatory conversion of the Galaxy class, along with the Prometheus. I admit that I have been struggling with lighting as of late. I just can’t seem to get the lighting quality that I want for these hulls.

Those of you who are planning on using this hull pack, please go here and submit my form so that I can track how many people are into this sort of stuff.

I am trying to keep the lighting consistent between the hulls, yet add enough character to each model to set them apart.

Also, I am desperate for more ideas for Huge Federation hulls. The Galaxy and Sovereign are clearly the largest ships in the fleet. Check this out. There is really nothing else that comes close in the federation fleet. The Niagra is “Ew”, and the Ambassador is “Blah”. I guess I will have to go with a couple of non-canonical ships that would fit in that size category. I could always cheat and say that the Federation captured some Alien ship, and then use another race’s design. Don’t tell anyone.

Stay tuned for updates (use this form if you want to receive email updates when new ships are available).
