Kitbash orthos

[Romulus Prime]

Ha! Just in time to save the thread from the depths of the second page.

USS VAL'WALO:
(Upper - complete ship; lower: saucer separated, and foreground engine omitted to show hull).

This was a tough one, since it wasn't bashed from Enterprise parts that I could trace from existing plans. Had to actually loft this from the model.

Here's the model, bashed from a Gundam Val-Walo:

Now for the top view. (Oy.)

OMG - I remember seeing the model for this ship a while back. It's a great combo of awesome and cute - well done!

 

[Forbin]

Awesome and cute! I like it!

USS VAL'WALO top view:

That was a tough one!

 

[Kaiser]

Awesome!!

 

[JES]

Of that I'm sure, but it looks like you managed just fine!

 

[Forbin]

^Those transporter emitters on the model are F-15 afterburner "turkey feathers".

 

[Sarvek]

Impressive work.

 

[Forbin]

Tanks!

The transporter emitters are the gold hexagons, arranged in strips?

 

[Albertese]

Methinks those are life boats. I imagine he refers to the shapes port and starboard of the bridge area.

Gotya. Thanks.

 

[Forbin]

Yup.

 

[sojourner]

What? No USS Val'Kilmer?

 

[Kaiser]

Awesome new Pic showing whats what on that design

 

[CorporalCaptain]

Awesome new Pic showing whats what on that design

Seconded. Thanks.

 

[beamMe]

Yup.

Those warp-engines looks really good. The rest not so much.

I've always liked the Val'walo-Class since I first saw her and I don't really know why. These orthos are pretty damn amazing!

 

[Forbin]

What? No USS Val'Kilmer?

DONE!

 

[Redfern]

BeamMe, those warp engines started existance as felt tip markers, believe it or not.

I still salute you, Forbin, for repurposing them. They're perfect for "Next Gen'" era nacelles!

Sincerely,

Bill

 

[Forbin]

Tanks.

And every time I go to Staples I look for more markers that can be used as nacelles. I never see anything else cool enough.

Actually, these were markers too:
