Hi all! I was heartened to see detailed images of Serenity. I would love to see fans post pictures of all the ships seen on Firefly. Come on, guys. Let's see them thar ships!

I have some SFX screencaps from a couple of episodes of some of the ships and Serenity. If you want them I'll need an e-mail to send them to.

I got the firefly.net alert that someone had posted, but no email as of yet. :-(

I keep getting my e-mail back. How many MB can hotmail take? One MB right? My file is over 6MB's close to 7. (I have over 100 jpegs in the file)That's where the problem arises. We have to work out some kind of sending schedule before I can send you them.

Good point, Talrius. Hotmail is frequently size-sensitive.

I think AOL has a much larger cap.

I'd be grateful if you could try willeamtell@aol.com

Thanks,

AOL has like a 15-17MB range, I think. Anyway, I'm in the process of sending the zip, all 6.63Mb of it. So enjoy if it gets there. If not, I'm gonna have to cut the file in half and send it like that. Either way I'll continue to try to send it to you.

I'd greatly appriciate those jpegs as well, for use with my Firefly mod for Escape Velocity: Nova (now available for Windows, in addition to the original Mac version!).

My email is lms@(KILLSPAM)andrew.cmu.edu , just take out the (KILLSPAM) part. (That ensures that nettrawlers can't take my real email from this post.)

If anyone knows people who are working on or have completed 3D models of these ships, help me get in touch with them. I don't need the models themselves, just a sequence of images of them. I already have someone who's making a Firefly-class model and is willing to help.

If you're interested in downloading EV: Nova to get a better idea of what I need (its shareware), go to www.ambrosiasw.com/games/evn .

I should probably clarify. I don't mean to use the exact JPEGs in the mod I'm making, but just as reference material.

Thanks, Talrius. I'll check my box and pray.

Anyone involved in a rendering project of Firefly show ships, hoorah! I wish you great success.

Thanks for sending, but the zip file is reporting an error and I think I know what got messed up.

Would you mind resending it again?

Does anyone know what happened to this? Who ended up with the images? Thanks. =)

AnthonyT got his a few days ago and I'm currently sending Lindley the zip. So, if all goes well, Lindley should have a good start on reference images for the firefly mod. Hope that answers your question.

Yuppers! I was very pleased with the images Talrius captured and sent. Very nice.

I hope someday people can make schematics of these ships, but until then, these images are good references.

Lindley, check back with me periodically and I might have more caps for you. A very kind person is caping many of the sfx shots for me in large sizes, with all their details. If you'd like I could always send the new ones to you after I get them. Anyway, I'm glad you guys are enjoying the caps. I was once in the same boat, scrounging for ship screen caps and I'm all to happy to share what I find with fellow souls.
