I'd make the Bussards more red to match the CGI scenes in the game.

  Canon is what people argue exists on ships that don't exist.

Keep them as they are in those pictures.
Red bussards and blue nacelle grilles are canon to Federation ships. If the Kessok were meant to have red bussards and blue nacelle grilles, they would've been shipped with such textures when the game was first released.

indeed - nothing in any of BC's CGI movies look like anything in the stock game (ships, backgrounds, sets, graphics, etc)...

I have a very good memory. The first time I saw a kessok ship in the cutscenes with red bussards, I died a little. Keep the bussards the way you have them. I am begging you.

I agree with Billz here. It makes far more sense to me that the bussards would be a different colour.

Yes, keep them as they are! The first time I saw the end cinematics all I could think of was that the people doing them, and designing the game, sent each other black and white pictures...
Although I suppose it does tie in with Star Trek on a whole doesn't it? Continuity errors were everywhere right?

Too true... Anyway, I've decided it'd be better just to keep the warp engine colours the same for now. If some people really want the BC CGI colours then I guess it shouldn't be too difficult to re-colour and release variant textures. Also, I've begun work on the Kessok Heavy. I don't paticularly like the pattern on the nacelles, but it seems to work OK: Images Removed - See page 3

Well, It's been a few days since the last update, so here's the Kessok Heavy Battlecruiser complete. Again, if there's any ideas you want to put forward about it, then please don't hesitate to say.
Also, I'm completing the Specular maps for the Kessok Light Cruiser now, so it'll be in game soon.
On yet another note, I've been thinking about creating another Kessok vessel. I knew I'd need some 3D software, and Milkshape seem a little... basic (not to mention you still have to buy it!), so I had a look about for other 3D programs. Then I came across Blender, a free 3D program that seemed to look quite good. I'll be having a go with it soon. (PS: 3DS Max looked good until I saw a price tag of over $3,000! :shock: )
Finally, I'm adding textures to Rob Archer's Kessok Freighter. Pictures will be coming later...

After days unwrapping, configuring textures and trying to find the right combinations; I'm happy to present my initial attempt at texturing Rob Archer's Kessok Freighter. I'm aware of the various texture lines and irregular textures at this stage, and I'll find a way of sorting them out later. But for now, here's the first stage:
