*ahem*
A stretch back, geek that I am, I found a umod on some REALLY old UT site for original series Stark Trek skins... and it's largely been collecting dust on my harddrive for awhile. This past weekend I dug into them to check them out:
Basicaly they're decent skins, but very pale. A little too pale, they look like they were exposed to brighter light, or there a fog between you sorta thing. The old problem that vertain parts of certain models aren't subject to team colors work against them something fierce too:
Yeah, they've got decent faces. Some are clearly photos molded over onto the skins, which works okay sometimes but mostly not.
Chekov's looks psychotic!
To give an example of contrast, 1 skin the set has is the Gorn (slap yourself if you don't know what that is).
I took the original and enhanced it:
Then I started playing around with it and other things:
The pieces for the Klingon skin are not from this set. I'm a geek, I've had Klingon skins awhile too.
Long story short, I now have Gorn running around my games:
Not done playing around with these yet, working up other skins into a Gorn skinset (4 so far).
Got a basic talk texture done too:
