    Frame four suggests it is MEOW time.

    If the Empire has leased the property,
    any local city council trespassing,
    is potentially creating an international incident.
    That will allow their Emperor to get involved,
    disbanding the council.
    Since criminals in prison should be banned
    from serving in a government position.

    Mission briefing is not generally held in a launch bay.
    It might happen if you have a rapidly changing situation
    and need to brief everyone right before takeoff,
    but this feels more like something planned well in advance.
    I have no idea if drawing a briefing room would be harder
    or easier, so feel free to ignore if it makes it harder on you.

      But the launch bay is more visually
      interesting than a briefing room.

      Dramatic license plus it is more visually interesting.

    Family members of the now defunked wanna-be empress?
    Someone trying to lay claim on their land maybe?

    Last minute briefing, usually a sign of a intel that was just
    updated maybe. Either way, a small, fast, Dagger screams
    a gas attack. knock them out, inform them of the latest
    Motha BS, move on to the next targets. I’m guessing, who
    knows but PC where this is going.

      “land claim” – 2 other comics hinted at,
      your land , but you have to do what we say.
      and one said rather have the money now,
      than on the long haul…
      i’m guessing it’s those same people,.
      saying “you ready to do it our way.!

        I’m doing a re-read now,
        I’ll catch up soon enough.
        I think I know who you mean,
        but I’ve slept since then,
        heh.

    PC, I give. I have tried everything I can think of
    including following the directory path you gave me
    and absolutely CANNOT find any of those ship 3D
    models. I’m going to work on various ideas and
    send you screen caps of the basic models. I also
    plan to put screen caps up at my DeviantArt page
    to let the gang here look at the preliminary work
    and vote on what they’d like to see.

    In the interim, can someone recommend past epi-
    sodes with decent views of core warships? If no-
    thinig else I can hokey up reasonable stand-ins for
    PC’s actual models.

        Okay. Gonna have to think about where they
        might graft FTL equipment onto those shapes.
        Looking at the capital ship I’m getting ideas
        of what their FTL gear might look like. I see
        it as very angular and almost rough looking.
        The Empire’s will be similar but sleeker,
        cooler looking ’cause it’s the Wolf Empire. 😉

        Also I’m assuming the smallest
        class ships do not get FTL gear.
        Only the 2 (or maybe 3) largest
        classes can go FTL.
        You agree?

      • Bill Mullins

        It’s pretty evident that whoever executed those
        models was more heavily influenced by Star Wars
        than Star Trek. That gives me a direction.

        Can you resize/reorient as needed? Otherwise
        I’ll have to buy at least the Capital ship to get
        the size right.

        Also, any place I graft FTL gear onto any of the
        shapes it’s gonna occlude weapons’ arcs. It’s
        unavoidable. I’ll try to design the FTL gear to
        go on as far aft as practical.

          simple: 2 generic rings, fore an aft,.
          just big enough for the biggest,.
          6 connecting tubes each, 3 per side,.
          IF left on, ships are at disadvantage.
          (expensive, easy to damage, interrupts normal ops..)
          IF removed, tubes have Q.D.’s..
          then biggest ship brought a tug,.
          to pick up rings (an tubes) an hold till depart…
          this way, art in the long run is not changed.
          just the arrival an departure.

            Except I’m trying to build something that looks
            like it was made by the same folks who made
            the Daz models PC is using. Also I want to do
            something that is worthy of OC’s art.

              was thinking ‘ jankey build ‘ so like this. or this

              i thought this was a.. greble build anyway,,
              2 different ships thrown together,
              as last ditch to work..

              also these are all free daz ships…

        FEKKING GREAT! I spent the money to get the
        Capital Ship and it won’t install using DAZ install
        manager and the manually downloaded ZIP file
        will not open! Okay it was only $14 but it still
        hurt! {sigh} I guess I’m still gonna need the
        .obj files to get sizes/proportions right. But
        until then I’ll keep plugging on.

          It might have been a bad download, I’ve ran into that
          before, did you try to re-d/l it? Some .stl and .obj files
          I’ve d/l-ed did the same thing from both thingiverse
          and printables websites. .zip files are bad about that,
          sometimes I use Winrar to get them to open.

          third party files are not “DAZ safe”.
          an will not copy.!
          manually open the file.
          manually move each file.
          to the DAZ ds file…

            Except I bought this at the Daz3D site.

            Scars. I tried using manual dl but WinRar refuses
            to open the zipped file. Oh well.

              I just found the original zip files in my downloads
              directory and unzipped them to “My DAZ 3D Library”
              with 7zip.
              If that doesn’t work, you might have a faulty download.

                would it be possible to email me the .obj and .mtl
                files? That’s all I truly need. I need those files so
                I can get the model size and orientation correct.
                The .obj files are the 3D models and the .mtl are
                the materials. with those I can use the same ma-
                terials for the new models as on the existing.

                Note: Unfortunately I cannot spend more than a
                couple of hours at the computer. I am an in early
                of heart failure and my hands and feet swell. It
                gets pretty uncomfortable.

                  The files are far too large for email, and my copy of the RAR
                  creator is out of it’s trial period.
                  Can’t you download the files from DAZ manually and then unzip
                  them to a folder on your desktop?
                  I just did that and it worked fine.

    If this is the same Ariste Jaerkan as in the hunt sequence,
    she has lost some colour. Then she was pink(ish)…
    Top story. someone seems to be aiming for some hurt.
    I suspect it will not go as the party crashers had imagined 😉

    Catman, Isuspect it’s gonna take some time to
    construct decent looking FTL add-on gear for the
    core ships. I have some pictures in my head but
    actually realizing them (and regaining proficiency
    in the 3D modeler) is gonna take some work.
    Unfortunately I’m sure it will not be ready in
    to be used for the attack on Lepordia. I’m gonna
    keep plugging. I’ll send you screen caps of my
    WIP to see if you approve of the direction I’m
    going in.
