Battlestar Galactica - Botanical Cruiser 3D model

BY EVE-Kaneda, April 2024

Botanical Cruisers are ships with bio domes that serve as civilian transports, possible vacation spots, or are used as greenhouses for specialty food or plant-matter production. Known as Agroship in the original series of Battlestar Galactica, Botanical cruiser is it's modern reincarnation in Reimagined Battlestar Galactica TV show.

Model features and usage:

• 1.024.191 polygons
• 2k and 4k UDIM textures with diffuse, normal and roughness layers.
• Highly detailed and (mostly) accurate model
• Lights
• .obj, .fbx,. lwo/lws and .blend
• Material slots

The ship has 3 material slots - hull_base, dome_window and dome_trees. Only hull_base and dome_trees have textures, make a standard window material for the dome_window slot. hull_base is using numbered UDIM textures (1001-1034.png), dome_trees has separate diffuse only layer with alpha mask (Botanical_cruiser_diffuse_trees.png).

Textures are UDIMs!

Lights - FBX includes basic point lights on the domes and along the hull. Adjust as necessary. Not compatible with Vray out of the box. You have to convert/fix them. Lights are not included in Lightwave 3D files.

Please report any issues you encounter with my models. I will do my best to fix them.

Special thanks to Mike Hanson for advice and testing out this model.
