Dac's NX-01(.5) & more!

Re: Dac's NX-01(.5)

^ Oh my... I don't want to say. But... no. The upper area is actually on the same level as the rim (or E Deck). The lower level is supposed to dip into the area below that under the saucer. You also have the extra 5 feet for the door recess. So the lower launch bay level is about eight feet to long and about 5 feet to tall to fit into the space.

And the outer rim is about 7 feet. But if you look at the sets the ceiling slopes down to that area making the inner areas 8 feet.

Ah. Well, im not going for rivet accuracy with this (dont have the skill nor the patience), but I hope im in the right ballpark.

Their the same height as the people in the launch bay, and if those are about right, that'll do me fine.

Perfect.

Interesting theory guys. I don't wanna get involved cause it will make my brain explode, lol.

Re: Dac's NX-01(.5)

Anyhow, moving on from fitting everything into the ship, back to pretty pichurz!

First up, I caved in and made a rough texture for the saucer. It isn't perfect, but it works (I think), so that's probably gonna stick. Just gotta make some more for the rest of the ship now.

I dunno why, but I found making the crashed Columbia to be really fun. Probably because its something a bit different, and instead of focusing on details I got to rough it up a bit :P

Anyhow, this isn't all I do, I like to juggle lots of projects (even though I really can't). So, here's the Battlestar Pegasus, I've been making it since it appeared in the gods damn show all them years ago, and, well, havent really touched it in 3 years. I really should get around to finishing it though...

Ah well, even though the Pegasus needs some finishing, I decided to take a stab at everyone's favorite federation battleship.

More to come at some undefined point in the future!

Where? All I see is a Millennium Falcon wannabe.

Heh, only if you really care about such things. It's only sad gits like me and AstroSmurf who notice them (With the deepest respect to AstroSmurf of course )

Re: Dac's NX-01(.5)

^ Actually I am a sad git. I have, after all, devoted four and a half years of my life to the black sheep of Trek ships.

And again, awesome work Dac!

I like the texture you made... very nice.

Re: Dac's NX-01(.5)

Heh, thanks for the kind words guys....Im afraid the NX has hit the back burner again while I flesh out the Defiant.

 

[fleetcaptain]

Re: Dac's NX-01(.5)

Starting to come together so nicely. Can't wait to see more of that beauty.

Re: Dac's NX-01(.5)

I decided that she was a little too skinny, so I've bulked her up a bit, and have decided to follow the shape of the studio model, and there's a few different CG ones made for the show it seems and they all played fast and loose with the dimensions.

Re: Dac's NX-01(.5)

very nice Defaint 3D renders

Still plodding away at the Defiant...
