[gmd3d]

very nice man ....... excellent style .. I love the picture of the Raptor cockpit .. always like those views

[evil_genius_180]

Cheers, Animaniac. *raises glass*

I'm glad you got those problems you were having worked out. As always, stunning work. Your meshing and rendering skills are most impressive.

They're all excellent, but I really like that one with the Cylon soldier and the ships flying over, it's stunning. I've never seen the new series, is that Blackbird Laura from an episode or something you created inspired by the series?

[animaniac]

Yes, its from the 2nd Season of Galactica 2003+, they developed this Stealth-Fighter from Parts of a damaged Viper MKII and make the Hull with Carbon-Compositives, so it´s nearly invisible for the DRADIS-Radar System. After Starbucks First Flight with it they named them "Laura" like the President of the 12 Colonies Laura Roslin. Unfortunatley they make only 2 Combat-Missions, a RECON-Mission to Scan the Cylon-Resurrection-Ship (A Ship where Dead Cylons Reborn in a New Body after Dead) and a Second Mission to Destroy the FTL-Drives of this Ship, but seconds after the sucessfull Complete this Mission, Piloted by Apollo, they was Destroyed by a Cylon Raider.

Here a Second Version with Darker Hull, AL3D (Alain Rivard), the Artist they have made the most Models of the Series has told me the a darker Hull is nearer to the Original.

[gmd3d]

I like the second one more :)

[animaniac]

Here now a 3rd Version with the Writings of the Developement-Crew, hope there on the right Place, at the Screencaps and the Episode are not realy Visible where they are.

Excellent Image .. perhaps a little more of a golden glow around the lower part of the hull .. but that just taste :) ....

[animaniac]

Thanks! Reworked Version with retracted Pods, darker Background (like New Caprica) and edited Texture and Flames. There two Galacticas, the normal Textured one and a 2nd half-transparent with only the Glow-Texture.
