Ok, here are links to two images of some work I've been doing.

A wing of GTF Dracos (Black Wolf) fly escort to a GTD Tennyson (AKA "GTBCr Tennyson" by Droid803).

A GTD Tennyson flies alongside a TMV Krom ( Unknown Author) and a GTCV Deimos past a cold-cracked planet (One of Aldo's planets from Lost Souls)
I have since updated my fleet with more ships and will have more screenies up soon.

Hmm, looks nice so far. A good and lonely atmosphere.
In the second shot, you should put the planet before the nebula BTW. To do this in FRED, just make sure the planet is listed under all the nebulae.

Here are the new shots.

The fleet has been updated with the presence of a GTD Sirona (c914) for heavy firepower.

Updated background with more nebula next to the planet and a blue sun.
Pretty much, I have assembled a large array of Shivan and Terran forces. I plan to compile more stuff but this is a start and by how its coming together, I do feel that a campaign of sorts is in order.

Not one of mine, by c194 or Herra IIRC. I can't do planets, and certainly not of that quality

Oh, my bad. I found this somewhere along your line of works and I thought you made it. I know now.
Working on a test level I could possibly turn into a 1st fully-fledged mission and making some briefings for it. Just having difficulty with anibuild. I got my files named properly.
1st on is for the Tennyson, so I got it named:
eg. Tennyson0000, Tennyson10000

Your frames should end in 0000 (first frame) , 0001 (second frame) , 0002 etc.

Oh, so thats how you do it. I made a big misinterpretation there. I
I'll test it out.
Edit: Got it working. I've made a few animated command briefs and motionless ones. I was really stumped at the numbering thing.

Do note that I only added some *.pof data for it (and messed it up a bit, I can pass you a fix if you want) and uploaded it to FSMods.
The real credit for the Tennyson goes to Nyx who modeled, and esarai, who did the actual conversion as well as the table for it.
The TMV Krom was made by Trashman, I believe.

I've completed the first mission. I kind of made it go over two seperate levels. In other words, mission 1 goes as 1a and 1b. I'm eager to try compile them as a campaign file to try test it, but im not sure how to about it.

With the Campaign Editor in FRED. Ctrl-click to add the missions in, and don't forget to link them (IIRC, you have to drag each mission onto the next one). Hard to explain, but not too hard to do. Just make sure there is a line between two successive missions. I didn't know that at first

It worked. Quite differently to what I expected but it turned out ok. Now I got the roots of the whole thing covered, I can really hammer away at this thing.
When I've made sure this other mission is perfect, I'll post some screenies.

As promised, some screenshots. I've really worked hard to reach this far. There are some for my revamped mission 1a and some for the 1b.
