Hey old buddy.

Hey, medjai, have to seen the other meshes on this render-folder? Those Romulan-ships are damn fine, aye?

See the Shadows of Darkness, Hear the Scream of Cruelty...

That's why I've became a Warrior of Heart, Defend the one you like, Guard the one you love...

Aresius. I don't know if I understood right, you want me to make a render of a romulan ship in my scene of rendering?
If it goes that I can send the scene for your e-mail.

Hey Folks.

It's really interesting how a design can be changed, when interpreted and modified by another. Really like the fact you're trying to get your own way, medjai but I've told u so before.

The guys are right - the modellightning looks good.

For those who're interested in the original design take a look on:
www.LukasDanvil.de - Ships

Honestly I've not done a sketch in the last two years, except one time, so there's nothing new.
But still it's interesting to see, how design evolves.


@Medjai: I like the Idea of trying to modify the ship into a pylon-narcelled one, but somehow I think the direction of the pylons, which are connecting warpnarcelles to the body itself are breaking the overall flow.
If the Narcelles are not merged with the body you should think about bulky narcells rather soft and rounded.
The rounded and biomorph narcelles looked good as they were merged but now they're somehow wrong. Try something more beefy, more durable with a brute appearance like the mainbody itself.
Same for the hull-narcelleconnection.

Beside that I personally would increase the size of the warpnarcelles at all. Somehow the appear fragile to me, compared to the ship.

See below for a (just one) suggestion. Of course I don't mind, if you ignore them.

I changed the direction of the inner pylons, cause keeping the flow of them would cause the outer pylons to end to far behind the ship, which looks to stretched, imho. Also I made the whole thing beefy, as I said, and I'd rather use narcelles with wing connection on top, instead of the inner side.
It's making the whole thing more akira-ish, which is sad (in the meaning of originality), though.

Anyway. I'm excited to see, what you're ending up with.

Hi Luke! I liked their suggestions, I will try do them, maybe it is a little complicated, and I will take advantage of the nacelles or else I will have to do everything again

Very, very good. You have to do a fleet shot with this and your other starships, that would be awesome!

Yeah, something like that. I never realized how detailed your models were until I saw that image. You have to do some animation with this.
