Default Anyone got a Galactica mesh?

I'm looking for a Lightwave Battlestar Galactica mesh. I already have one but the textures don't seem to be working correctly.

Any help would be appreciated.

C'mon over to:

http://www.battlestarpegasus.com/gallery/

and search under "Models and Meshes." At present, I only have one Lightwave model/mesh of the Galactica, courtesy of H. Gibbens. The framework is good, but the detailing/dirt is lacking. Hopefully we'll see a much more detailed and accurate model from someone in the months ahead.

Thanks a lot Michael. I'm looking for a lot of ci-Fi tuff that in't part f the really huge shows.

So far I've managed to gather the Draconian and Buck Roger meshes. 90% however seems to conist of B5, tar Trek or Star Wars.

The Galactica i an amazing ship, though two others that come close for impressive looks are the Draconia from Buck Rogers, and the USS Cygnus from the Black Hole.

Oh yes !!
The Cygnus and the Draconia.... really great ships. Don't forget the Searcher, from Buck Rogers too.
I collected a lot of references from these (and other) shows. If interested, visit my page.
I'm looking for a looooooooong time these meshes, but I can't find them. Somebody knows where can we find them ?? :guard:

Actually, I mean Higher Quality, Greater Detail, not for Web but for Print at higher resolutions.
I primarilly want the CYGNUS - the others would be nice, but the CYGNUS is the primary need, without it, I dont need the others. Oh yeah, forgot to mention, Im using either Lightwave 7 or 3DStudio Max 4

Thanks

Well in that case I'm afraid your going to have to build them yourself. These are the only meshes I've ever seen from the film and they are both very, very old and of low detail.

Well, not quite true. There is a second higher detailed version of the V.I.N.Cent mesh but that ones not for general release.

There have been two attempts to build the Cygnus that I'm aware of but both modellers abandoned the projects not long after starting for various reasons. Theres plenty of references out there for the Cygnus so you should not have any problems getting yours to be acurate...

Default Galactica

This site has the Battlestar Galactica Colonial Viper in Lightwave format.

Battlestar Galactica Colonial Fleet Downloads
Requires joining the forum and 25 posts before you can download but they
have several models in Lightwave format.

Colonial Viper and Cylon Raider
These are Poser format but maybe you can convert or import.

I saw that reference to the Draconian flagship (wasn't it just called the Draconia in the pilot?)--but nothing in the follow-ups--anybody have a mesh for it?

I have a Galactica mesh of the original Galactica...no the new one:
http://www.seansgallery.com/newpics/galacticaGI.jpg
http://www.seansgallery.com/newpics/galacticaGI2.jpg

It's about two years old now, but there a lot of detailing.


I also have a cygnus mesh I abandoned about 3 years ago:
http://www.seansgallery.com/gallery/...cygnustest.jpg
It's good for distance shots but won't hold up under close-ups.
