Thanks Mattress: Can always count on you (even with a new job). I was never really sure if I had uploaded to the right spot.

I'm happy that the community likes the images. CB

Could you do an identical set of images, but without the blurring of the background elements? I hope that won't require too much work. And obviously you don't have to do it if you don't want to. I'm just interested in seeing what they would look like.

I'll send them PM first and see what you think.

Here are some shots done with new Lightwave Core

Looks great.

Does anyone think it would be worth seeing all of the Tech images with this technique and color scheme? Thanks for your input in advance. Also, Zeleni, I would still love to see you take one of them, round off the corners (make transparent) and do your shiny button effect with it. Captain Bashir.

Damn you vjeko, you broke the emoticon chain!

It might be an idea having multiple versions of the images in this fashion, Captain. Would it involve a lot of work though? My personal favourite is the second one. As for Zeleni invisibibling the background and buttonising it, I imagine the first image would lend itself best to that as it has a solid coloured background already and has the least amount of stuff near the edges.

looks crispy

Hope crispy means good. It won't be too much work. I'll fit it into me schedule. CB

In game look if anyone is interested:

crispy

Image is perfect Bashir any additional touches will be counter-productive.
Guys I'm very busy lately so i didn't produce nothing new regarding 2d images and insignia and in near future this won't change but I'm happy seeing you progressing each day, just keep up!

Have discovered that in my computer crash I lost the computer image and part of the weapons image. I'll be working on them. What I have is below with Lightwave Core touches to all but the computer and weapons. Biotech has a completely new background molecule. I also tried something different with Propulsion and hope to get the lighting on the other background images similar to it. Hope it is crispy. CB

Yes, very crispy.

Sorry about the crash.

You should've told me mate, you know I make backups of everything you send me lol.

Thanks. Comforting, wise move. I keep backups as well. Unfortunately, what I lost was the original Light Wave model, and that only because I had just made it. It is relatively minor since I can quickly remake what I lost in about 30 min (I'm getting faster at it). The models I lost were of a background image that need re-coloring in Light Wave Core. Bashir Inc.

Here are the dark ones ("Come to the Dark side.") The Lightwave Computer image is Backed up. CB

Very nice an backed up as well

great, simply great

Thanks, you two. Its for the love of the game... and maybe the applause too. OK, I admit it. Capt B.

I learned some new modeling techniques and updated the Klingon Bird-of-Prey Disruptor. CB

Ooh more spherical...less edgy...meh you know what I mean. Nice update mate.

Looks excellent, only thing I've always found strange that there is two models of one weapon and one of the other. I could help to have something else other than torpedo and disruptor in the background. Perhaps something Romulan or Cardassian phaser (one from the pictures I've posted couple of months ago, on that DS9 had, either the small cylindrical or big rectangular)

Yeah, that has bothered me too. It's time I did the phaser. I'd have you do it but since I have to use Lightwave to turn it and light it to fit with the rest of the images, I'll need to have the polygon model in my format.

Thanks Matress and Vjeko.

Here is a Weapons image with the mini-torp turret. The disruptor is Klingon, the Launcher is from a Cardassian station, and the torpedo is Federation. Enjoy. Captain B.

Now all we need is to add a Plasma Torpedo, a Polaron beam, a Quantum Torpedo, a...

No words, just
