Let me be the first to introduce ya all to the most feared
ship in the Narn arsenal, the Bin´Tak Class Dreadnought is a very unique flagship since
their was only eight of them ever constructed before the shadow war its very existence was
denied and was classified as a "secret weapon" - for no ship has ever lived a
head-to-head combat with the Bin'Tak. Stumbled upon this ship at Agents
of Gaming, the creators of the table top wargame: B5Wars. and since they have B5 license
to make their own ships design & stories, this makes the BinTak a semi-canon creation
that exists in the B5 universe.
I began modeling BinTak as soon as i got all the specs right, only the modeling
part took me 3-4 weeks and the texturing one or two weeks alldo the modeling part was
actually FUN and i could still today continue on it and make it MORE detailed i decided to
close the thread and end this project for now, the texturing was a pain the rear end!,
repainted the "camo" layer to the BinTak a couple of times but it turned out
very nice.
I would like to thank all those that has help me out with the spec/backgrnd
info, thanks! you know who you are. And AoG for designing the most nastiest piece of metal
on this side of the galaxy!

If you have LW6.0 installed you will get alpha channel layer in the
materials incorrect, you will have to fix it your self, since in LW6.5 corrected that bug,
and the converting from v5.6 to v6.5 works now fine.
If you have any ideas on how I could improve the model then feel free to contact
me. I don't mind if you modify the model, as long as you don't distribute that version.
Other than that you are free to use it, and if you use it in pictures or animations I'd
really like to see what you did with it. :)
