What Should I Make Now?

Ok, I have finally finished up the remakes for the Star Trek sets, and I have made several other non-star trek sets so what should I make now?

I was thinking about making a Battlestar Galatica set, but have dabbled in both an empire and rebel set for Star Wars. There are some requests for Babylon 5 sets, but the ones I have made have never really been that well recieved. (??)

I know that my talent is a dying breed with the 3d ship model system that SE V will most likey use, and that any ship sets I make now are kinda in vain given the short time we have before SE V comes out. So really anything I make is just an indulgance and nothing more.

However given that depressing nature of my previous statement, I still get board and wanna make things. So the question stands, what should I make?

Perhaps a Ship Set Build Off. Two modelers make a basic set each and people vote and choose the best set of the two.

I jsut realized I also have five sets not yet released, pending the out come the Tournement. Plus the set that Solops is working on.

(That a nice one)

Well enough praddling on. I am going to go spend some pennies and get a die coke.

Star Wars is a definite maybe. There is the Old Republic, New Republic, Trade Federation, and Galactic Empire. I'm sure there are others like Hapans, Ssi-ruuk and Vong but reference material on those is pretty scarce.

I think you are giving SE4 a great sendoff with all of your excellent sets. Keep it up!

Well I could point you to a few SFB shipsets I would like to have made...? I mean if your 'really bored'...

Think up the wackiest ship design you can. Then, make it work.

Maybe you could think about making some components.

I have already made over a 120 + components and such.

I could make more, and most likely will.

Well, why dont you do a nice babylon 5 set ? Shadows could use one, as well as almost every other race. Im doing my best, but it still quite consuming to do coding and graphics

While we are at it, wont it be possible to somehow convert doga made shipsets to the mentioned X format ? If now, which free modeler supports .x ? It seems even my 3dsmax 5.1 cant export into X.

That's becuase X is unknown, so naturally it's hard to write a converter.

There is always the White Comet Empire from Starblazers("da da dada da da dada....We're off, in outer space...").

I have already made one Starblazer set, I guess I could put the Comet Empire in the que as well.

The Earth and Beyond series was only on Fox for a few months. I never did see any of the bad guy ships. I only saw the warhamer and I think one bad guy ones. They had these light lazer mines. Most deadly and devious things they were.
