I got quite a bit of fan requests recently for me to finish off the Bowships designs before continuing to the time lord compendium.. to that I say.... Let's Do it! Also I got a few repeated requests to see the Avenger Class and Vanquisher class in a scale comparison.. so here it is from the side view and top view.. thanks for all the compliments..
BTW Starsuperion have you heard of the Jade Pagoda? It's introduced in a few of the novels, it's pretty much a TARDIS escape pod. It's seen on the cover here: http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Sanctuary
yeah I came across that a few times in my TARDIS research.. it is in my Type 40 designs.. I have a couple of huge and massive sized Tardis schematics which will also address the pagoda..
coming soon... By the way, I should have the dreadnought, Battle cruiser, and the Command cruiser up later today as well as the massive Gallifreyan Support ship..
Okay so, I am terribly sorry for continually updating with new designs but honestly, creating a fleet of ships that resemble one another and fit an overall engineering aesthetic, is difficult to say the very least. However, there are times when the light of God shines down upon my work, and brings to life something I have longed to bring out from the shackled corners of my over active mind.. see below.. there have been slight modifications to the ships of the series over time, and I think that now, I finally have the look and feel I always wanted from these Gallifreyan Bowships. The main fleet looks like this chart, 1 dreadnought 2 Heavy cruisers, 3 light cruisers, 4 escort fighters, and 1 massive support ship. escort fighters and support ships coming soon, as well as the warship design and the flagship (Rassilon's personal ship).. I hope you guys dig this:
Actually I think my Favourite is the Gallifreyan Escort Fighters, and Rassilon's ship.. wait till you see them!! Oh yeah, they Rock!
OMG sorry to necro such an old thread but I just stumbled in here via google. Some absolutely amazing stuff you guys have done....... AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! I found this picture in my google searches. This design is one of my favourites.
Just thinking on this if we see the police box when it's flying how is it possible to knock out asteroids with the bomb station on the bottom there? Kind of bends my head thinking how that works. So the exterior TARDIS we see is in our world and the exterior of the TARDIS proper is in another dimension. I guess that's why they can have an observation room with transparent walls. Tegan found that in one of the annuals.
Now that is the kind of episode I would love to see. There was a fifth Doctor story with him and Tegan and she finds the observation room which has transparent walls that allow a view of what is outside and they are trapped inside an giant creature called the Vorvilka (spelling) which is draining power from the ship. It was a bit of a mind bender for me because you had the creature's flesh pressing on the observation room walls yet they exit through the police box shell. So it really messed with my head reading that in a good way.. To this day I remember this story as it was in one of the old Doctor Who Annuals, I think the 20th Anniversary one..
