Having A problem with New Race

Atrocities · #1 May 18th, 2002, 06:51 AM

Well it was bound to happen sometime. I have hit a brick wall with the race I am currently developing.

I am working on the Kazon race and have found that they have only used 3 ships in the series. The problem I am facing is that I can not get good images of all three, and no top down shots either so I have to make them from scratch. DOGA is an excellent program, but limited.

Sooooo I either have to make them all from scratch and say to hell with the three from the show, or try to make three ships that resemble them.

So what do I do? Do I go ahead with an original set and for go trying to find images that I can use from the series or should I try to find images for them and use them. Or simply bag the Kazon and move on to something else?

This is what I have done currently;

Bases:
Space Station
Battle Station
Star Base

Race Main
Explosion
Shields
Drone

Race Portraits & Minis

Weapon Platforms Small, medium, and Large
Troops Small, Medium, and Large

&

Mine

Your help is always appreciated.

Just make them try to resemble the ships from the show, and take a bit of creative license.

I don't remember if there are Kazon ships in the BOTF game ... if its the case we could have shots of them in the BOTF 3D battle game.
Anyone remember ?

Birth of the Federation
- set in The New Generation

Kazon... something.
- set in Voyager, some years after New Generation.
