Do you guys still need a viper mkII? I’ve been working on one for over a month now, and the mesh is nearing completion. Still need to complete all the cockpit detailing and the landing gear before I start texturing.
Here’s some screenshots, let me know if you think this can be of use to you.
Colonial Ceremonies and Trials - BSG-77 (large images)
Yes, that would be excellent; thanks for your contributions. When you’ve got some updates, just post them here or link us to them
Welcome aboard.
A small update for today, working on the midsection between the dorsal and ventral hulls.


I’m assuming you’re talking to me here…
At any rate, here’s a link to my mkII thread on the sci-fi meshes forum, you can see all the latest updates there, just don’t look too much at the old pics

I go by the username of ‘newman’ there. I’ll post the bigger updates here, too. It’s nice to be a part of this. Take care.
quick post to say hi.
looks like i’m taking care of the Viper MkVII for the project. should be fun.
i’ll start posting wips once i get the main body blocked out.
references shouldn’t be too hard to track down but, if anyone has images to share it’s appreciated.
Also from Toronto!
I have many good references for the Mk 7 I’ve gathered, so I could save you a little time. If you send me a PM with an email address I should be able to help.
Welcome to the team, Gonk! Looking forward to adding your skill to this big project!
We need a low poly Viper and a High poly one, MkVII. I think we may be able to get ahold of a low poly one from a set of game models though but if you feel like making one go right ahead! Keep us updated!
thanks for the welcome.
high & low poly shouldn’t be a problem.
knowing there’s already a low poly backup is good though just incase of a time crunch or whatever.
Hey there gonk, welcome! From one viper modeller to another - I can make you some DVD caps of the mkVII if you’ll need them. Just post here, or on SFM, or PM me on any of the boards.
Take care.
hi nighttrain. whatever you can pass on will help.
i’ve been keeping my eye out for any decent cockpit images you can use. nothing so far but, i’ll keep looking.
thanks.
Well, recently I ordered BSG: mini series and the first two seasons from amazon, and they’ve arrived a few days ago. So, in regard to the mkVII, just tell me which angle you need, and I’ll see if I can find something.
Does anyone know what’s up with sci-fi meshes? Can’t get to the site, been like that the entire day now.
looks like they are updating the site or something
i will be needing an outline of your Vipers so that i can i can make the launchers tubes
so if you can post an outline i can get on with them ok

It´s nice to see these different projects come together.
Are there any plans to fill the scene with lots of detail work (e.g. low-poly Colonial Shuttles in the proximity of the shipyard, unfinished hulls or wreckage being worked on in the different drydock areas, …)?
@nighttrain: Don´t forget that SFM is currently undergoing some heavy maintenance work. That might be the reason. Either that or some admin executed a DROP TABLE query. :twisted:
Yeah I know about the maintenance, but they warned about possible slowdowns, not complete forum unavailability. Hope it’s not another big crash…
Hey guys , just wanted to let you know that I will be modeling the shipyard (or atleast attempting) as soon as Justin uploads some concept art. It’s gonna be awsome. =) And as I said on msn, awsome job on the models. Hope I can atleast begin to meet those standards.
welcome aboard Panzano.
i’m guessing the shipyard will be a pretty big undertaking. looking forward to seeing the concept and end result.
