-
- basestar.iobj...............Imagine 2.0 object of a Cylon(tm) BaseStar
- basestar.readme.............this file
-
- This object is the Cylon BaseStar from the universe of the live/model
- action TV show BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (late 1970s). It is based upon a
- Monogram model; BATTLESTAR GALACTICA is (tm) Universal City Studios, Inc..
-
- BaseStars were enormous, and carried swarms of Raider attack fighters, which
- were launched from short catapults found in the radial slots of the design.
- They also had multiple defensive turrets on the inner surfaces of both upper
- and lower hulls. (Like all the BATTLESTAR GALACTICA ships, the BaseStar had
- a wealth of surface detail and "weathering" not included in this object.)
-
- Scale of this object is uncertain, but BaseStars were very large - not in
- the STAR WARS "Death Star" class, but perhaps in the STAR TREK "Star Base"
- range.
-
- NOTE TO PRE-IMAGINE 2.0 USERS: This object can be successfully used in
- Imagine 1.1 or 1.0, but it makes extensive use of the "hard" and "soft" line
- feature of 2.0 which is not supported in previous versions. This makes the
- rendered object look puffy and melted due to Phong shading where not
- intended.

- Freely distributable, but unless this file is included you must credit the
