VRML Models - Firefly, Falcon, TOS Enterprise
 

Hi Guys;
You may not have seen my posts under Trek Art.
I build VRML models - Virtual Reality Modeling Language
VRML models are great because they're interactive in real time
and they can be built to simulate life-sized architectures.

I have 3 big models on the go right now...
Firefly Serenity, Millennium Falcon and the TOS Enterprise.

I just thought I'd share some pics and banter details with you - you the experts on everything Sci-Fi!

So here's some pics of the Firefly Serenity.
I build ships life-sized and from the inside out.
I've only started on the crew quarters:

Is this a trick question? Of course I do!

This is one of the sources for the Firefly model, just in case you can't quite make it out!

Very cool. I especially like the anaglyphs. Luckily I had some 3d glasses.

Do you put the outsides on when you're done, and then able to peel them away to look inside?

Re: VRML Models - Firefly, Falcon, TOS Enterprise
 

Yes, something like that.
The way you describe it sounds pretty painful though!!
I was considering a cross-sectional cut-away view and
the skinless view and a full ship view.

Nice to hear from Vancouver!

Re: VRML Models - Firefly, Falcon, TOS Enterprise
 

That's still pretty sweet. Keep us posted.

And that's the first time I've heard someone from Toronto say anything like that! :guffaw:

Re: VRML Models - Firefly, Falcon, TOS Enterprise
 

Well, I lived there once, lots of family there... you're very sensitive!
