[Free Download] Cardassia Republic Uniform G8M/G8F by Ryselle-Chan on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

As part of my project "Cardassia: 2375 - 2405", covering my ideas for the events in Cardassia between the end of the Dominion War and the events of "StarTrek: Picard" I created uniforms for the Cardassian Republic, the successor of the Cardassian Union, a democratic body, looking into the future - but will it prevail with forces from the inside and the outside looking to impose their version of a new or old cardassia?

The uniform has four parts: A shirt, a belt, pants and the shoes. Natively, and when not rendered with Iray, the uniform is grey. But if you want colors to represent diverent branches of the military, police or otherwise, you can change the colors of the so called "Diffuse Overlay".

Next, you will find, on the right side of the torso, four fields. Those are supposed to show the ranks, who go as follow (at least, this is how I will use them in further illustrations):

The numbers (for example 86/86/86) represent RGB-values, to set in the color field in the shader parameters

1 Trainee (Mirgulak) (Three grey (86/86/86, one white 255/255/255): Started his journey as crewmen or serves her/his civil year

2 Junior Crew (Gardakrel) (2 grey, 2 white): Basic training (1 year) completed
3 Senior Crew (Gardaklon) (1 grey, 3 white): Full training (3 years) completed
4 Teamleader (Torimdar) (4 white): Senior Crew(wo)men with additional qualification who leads teams up to 8 as appointed by a Group Leader
-
5 Group Leader (Gultorak) (Three grey, 1 copper (255/127/127)): First officer rank, requires a former position as team leader and a 3 year degree from either Starfleet academy of the Cardassian Fleet Academy. Coordinates up to 5 teams.
6 Section Leader (Gultordak) (2 grey, 2 copper): Head of a specific section like communications, weapons, security and others on a Starship or a similar ground or combined force
7 Vice Captain (Dargulak) (1 grey, 3 copper): Every captain has at least 3 Vice Captains to serve as deputies. If 2/3 or more of the Vice Captains see the Captain either "unfit for duty" or "in conflict with ethics", they can either vote her/his command or even remove her/him from the position
8 Captain (Gulrek) (4 copper): Head of a Spaceship or a self operating ground force, or head of a police district
-
9 Colonel (Gulmar) : (3 grey, 1 gold) Commander of a squadron, which normally counts up to 8 ships

10 Brigadier (Gultorimar): Is either in command of a fleet with 3 - 8 squadrons or the forces of one planet

11 Admiral (Gulredak): In charge of the defense of one system or at most a few systems. Admirals are to the Admiral Marshall like the Vice Captain to a Captain when it comes to controlling them
12 Admiral-Marshall (Gulrekmar): The head of the fleet, only responsible to the Departa-Council and the elected president

The uniform is dForce (simulation) ready. I strongly recommend to

attach hair only after the simulation

, else it will slow down to much.
