Ya know, that's kinda how I imagined DS9 was going to look like when it was first announced. Good work!

Yeah, I'll see to smoothing things up later on... Remind me if I forget

In the meantime, I'm trying to think how to make the pylons look more streamlined with the rest of the hull...

The pylons are perfect that way. It looks like it was made for the starbase instead of being just stuck there. Very nice.

I always quite liked this design, so it will be interesting to follow the remake - good work so far

I agree and good job on the space doors.

Will you be releasing this version (PLEASE say yes

) I've been using the original version in my story as Alliance Station.

Hey Nir, I remember that... Also remember the words "Don´t shoot, cause we come in peace", or something like that.

The old and good SFA times... I never finished a mesh in that time. My first one is, in fact, the Enterprise-B.

Back on topic, nice to see you´re working on her again. I still have that old mesh, and it looks good. One interesting addition could be "real" windows, but I believe it could lead the polly count to higher values. The new arms looks good, as the doors.

Suggestions: You can add some insignias, as some weapons and hatches too.

Thanks guys.. I'll be making sure not to disapoint anyone

Cassio, real windows all around will probably mean my computer pulling out a gun and commiting suicide

but I am planning on putting some large windows here and there - the smaller ones will have to remain a texture.
As for hatches and insignias - there'll be planty of both as for landing pads, cargobays and shuttlebays...

oh and yes, I will, of course, release it - otherwise it doesn't worth the effort

Added some more hatches and intial grid lines

Looking forward to this one as well.

Does that also mean you'll be releasing your kick-ass Mekh'Lar class Klingon ship cause man I'd love to get my hands on that mesh!

(Quick addition: not to alter it mind you, to admire and learn from it and to post some artwork of it should I ever get good enough to do it justice

)

I would sure like to give you the Mek'hlar and all other models I've made thus far but the main problem I have right now is downsizing the mesh to a less insane size...

So far, hasn't had any luck in that - 125MB without the textures so if you have any suggestions I'm all ears.
