Avalon Station and ships
New content from R5D5. This mod pack includes three new ships (one of which is a construction ship) along with the Deep Space 17 Avalon Station. All of these models are well within what you'd expect in terms of poly count and overall model size. Plus they're a little unusual while still retaining the classic Starfleet elements-- in the case of Avalon Station, it's partially embedded in an asteroid. R5D5 also includes lightmaps, wireframes, buildbuttons and Admiral's Log pics for his stuff.
All in all, this is some seriously awesome mod content, at a time when there isn't much else coming out. A great mod from everyone's favourite modding astromech.

Comments
Concerning the quite unusual hull-painting of the USS Cheshire: the story behind this vessel is, that the female commanding officer was kicked out of starfleets shuttle service for exact such things. Costumising shuttles under her responsibility in a kind of girly-style... and stationed at the edge of federations space, far from high-command -she will not stop...

Indeed, the construction-ships texture is missing. Thank you for pointing it out. I will upload it ASAP.
