I came in touch with Star Wars at about 13 and have been a dedicated fan ever since. Today I work as system admin and webdesigner and try to find time and muse for some OPTing every now and then. I played X-Wing when it came out in 93, visiting a friend until I got my own computer, with X-Wing Collector's CD being the first game I got for it. Finally came into contact with the X-Wing Community in 2000, when I got my own internet access. I've been drawing and painting since I was a kid, proceeding into 3D modelling in my late teens and progressing and improving for over a decade. Well ... here I am, writing about my life.

Update on model remakes

Vince_T Blog

Via one channel or the other you may have heard that I'm currently busy remaking several of my more prominent models, some of which have long since found their way into other mods for games such as SW: Empire at War.

Alongside my current WIPs for the XWA Upgrade mod, I'd like to post a small showcase of what else I've got cooking. Really just a small digest of the vast collection of WIPs and unfinished models that are collecting dust on my HDD *sigh*. So for now here's a preview of the following ships:

  • Predator-class Star Destroyer/Carrier
  • Vanguard-class Frigate
  • Valiant-class Republic Cruiser (original Design by Kyle_K_Ski)

I'm alive!

Hello there!

Wow, 15 or so years since I've last been here, yikes! I am still alive, working on mods for X-Wing Alliance, working closely with my colleagues of the XWA Upgrade and testing the boundaries of that old game.

About my mods ...

  • The XWA Upgrade Mod is my current priority, obviously. I have pretty much taken it upon me to remake all the star destroyers and picked up a few in-progress from retired Modders like Marco Antonio and Dragon.
  • The Episode III Shipset is currently undergoing revision to make it compatible with the XWAU Mega Patch and update the mode to look its part in 2022.
  • The Blue Phantom Chronicles TC has sort-of been put on hold due to conflicting priorities. I'm still working on it from time to time tho.
  • The Battle for Scarif is a new shipset which I've started out of a whim. Not much info beyond it depicting the climactic battle over Scarif from the Movie Rogue One.

Alright then, time to wipe off the dust and get this profile back up to speed! There's much to show and more to do.

That's all, now go out there and have fun!
