Thanks.
Not really an update I have have finalized the names of the first five Soval class ships.
Soval
I made a few changes to this one.
He was the Vulcan Ambassador to Earth for many years in the early days of Earth-Vulcan relations. He originally fought to restrain Earth from sending ships deep into space but eventually changed his opinions before the formation of the United Federation of Planets. He was severely injured in the bombing of the Earth embassy on Vulcan, being saved through the sacrifice of Admiral Forrest.
Kuvak
Minister Kuvak was a member of the Vulcan High Command prior to its dissolution in 2154. When Jonathan Archer and T'Pau presented the Kir'Shara to the High Command, and accused Administrator V'Las of framing the Syrannites for the Earth embassy bombing, Kuvak incapacitated V'Las and ordered the invasion forces headed for Andor to withdraw. Following the removal of V'Las from office and the dissolution of the High Command, Kuvak assumed an important role in the new Vulcan government and promised a less supervisory role in Vulcan's future relations with Earth.
Solkar
T'Pol mentioned that he was the first Ambassador to Earth.
Surak
The most beloved and respected of all Vulcans who ever lived. He was the founder of modern Vulcan philosophy. He instigated The Great Reform, which put an end to millennia of warfare. He was murdered during a peace mission but his work continued past his death. His ideals of logic and IDIC remain foundations of Vulcan society. His Katric Ark was found in 2137 and, in 2154, his katra was transferred to the Hall of Knowledge for all Vulcans to have access to.
T'Pau
One of the most respected women in Vulcan history, a skilled high priestess and politician. She participated in Vulcan affairs much of her life. She was the only Vulcan to have turned down a seat on the Federation Council. She was a descendant of Surak, the grandmother of Sarek, and great-grandmother of Sybok and Spock. She lived well over 200 years but her actual age at death is apparently unknown.
This information comes from here Vulcan Language InstituteAR - Famous Vulcans so don't hang me if any of it is wrong.
It's been mentioned by others that each ship should hava a quote. Feels like a pain in the ass but I'll se what I can do.
Ok I have one for T'Pau
"You'll no longer have us looking over your shoulder. It's time for Earth to stand on it's own."
And one for Surak
"Logic has not won this day. But this day will not last forever."
Solkar will be the hardest since he's never been seen or heard.
That's actually not to bad. I was watching the Godfather and I thought of maybe.
"I made them an offer they couldn't refuse."
Actually I just found a quote by Aristotle that works.
"Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit."
It's just the base color right now. I'm useing the same one that Martocticvs has on his Galor class ship. By the time I'm done with it I don't think it will be too bright.
Wow the Opaka came out flipping awsome. Great work. Its nice to see some color on the Cardi ship as well. Your helping feel my inner treky!
Well don't feel him for too long. He bruises easily.:devil:
This is one of the best WIP threads I've seen here for a while Keep it up man. Loving the stuff so far.
Thank you.
UPDATE...
Added panel lines to the, wings I guess I would call them.
I also added impulse engines.
I have also added an airlock. It's loosely based on the ones used on DS9. I plan on placing another one up front some where.
Nice model so far :thumb: The details are really sweet. Are you going to do a rusty/dirty texture for this one like you did for your earlier model ? (the brown one, I don't know what race it belongs to)

For instance the Surak: The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few."

Looking good there duder.
UPDATE..
Back to the Cardie ship.
Just a few details and the base color.
I think I've finished the spikes at the back of the ship.
I also added two aft torpedoe launchers to the lower spikes.
Well don't feel him for too long. He bruises easily.:devil:
Evil! Also ya momma always told you that you could go blind for doing too much of that! :nono:
Hope your inner treky isn't likea Gizmo from gremlins - don't feel him after midnight!
Frequent updates at our Discord channel!

Looking forward to updates!
The build of the Impulse engine is done.
I've started to play with an idea of doing a Keldon type varient of the ship.
It's based on an old design by Rutger Warrink.
I don't even know what Birth of the Federation is.
But to be honest, I think the Keldon-box there does not really fit the ship.
