-
- This is my second attempt at recreating the Brakiri ship from the
-
- excellent sci-fi show Babylon 5. This model took me many hours of work to
-
- perfect, but "Metaform" did most of the work for me. :) In creating this
-
- object, I used several movies available on the Internet from "Shadow
-
- Dancing." I am told that it also made an appearance in "Ship of Tears,"
-
- although I didn't have any of those scenes to work from. Also of great
-
- help was a frame that Foundation Imaging made available on their ftp site.
-
- We must all thank them for a job well done!

-
- Brakiri_Cruiser.3DS 3D Studio object file
-
- Brakiri_Cruiser.DXF Autocad ASCII DXF file

-
- What has changed in this version of the model:
-
-
-
- Although the original model had few details, I have strived to make
-
- this one more accurate than the last. First off, the "struts" joining the
-
- front and the rear of the model have been resized along half of their
-
- length. The merging of those same struts into the bridge has been adjusted
-
- to reflect the real model's appearance. The upper and lower wings have
-
- been resized, as have the yellow stripes across them. The guns have been
-
- resized and redesigned to look like the model in the series. Finally, I
-
- have recreated the symbol from the top fin of the Brakiri vessel, and
-
- applied it to my own model. This settles most of my problems with the
-
- model - if there are more you think I should address, contact me.
-
-
-
- Feel free to make changes to the object but please do not distribute
-
- the modified model. If you think your changes would improve the model as a
-
- whole, please e-mail me and tell me what you've done. You may also use
-
- this object in your own scenes, but tell me if you make them publicly
-
- available. Thank you.
-
-
-
- I would like to thank Evelio Perez-Albuerne, who pointed out the name of
-
- this ship, when I was unaware of it. I would also like to thank Dean Scott
-
- for giving advice, allowing me to use his disclaimers, and generally
-
- inspiring many Babylon 5 fans to create models of our own.
