Starfleet Academy Starship Thread

I miss Star Wars: Galaxies.

I had a great scout character I had been working on up till They dropped the CU.
(making it so that everybody could automatically become a Jedi was a completely idiotic thing to do)

There's emulator servers making a comeback both pre CU and post CU.
 
My eyes negate your statement.
I posted an interview in the Prodigy general thread where Aaron Waltke talks about this.

An example Aaron gives in the interview is that when writing Season 1 there was discussions if they'd actually bring in real Janeway. They considered having Riker and the Titan be the ones chasing them, but when they pitched the idea to Secret Hideout, they said they should probably talk to Mike over at Lower Decks first lol.

Sure visually somethings may not line up perfectly, but they were actively working to not step on each other's toes in the story department.

Im guessing the Athena is like a very, very basic ship, seeing how it can't go against pirate ships. Even in the new trailer for the finale looks like it gets beaten the hell up.

I mean, it's one ship against the entirety of the Venari Ral. What would you expect? Besides, how many times did Voyager get beaten the hell up (and then just show up pristine in the next episode if nothing had ever happened)?

Truthfully? Have it take out one of the Venari Ral ships only for two more to show up and overwhelm it.

That shows the ship isn't a pushover, while also showing that it can't fight a war by itself.
 
Connor Lucas, concept and pre-viz artist on Academy, posted a 3D fly through of the Athena sets on his portfolio page, with a 2D cutaway of the ship showing where the camera is.

it's the first video at the very bottom of this page

Animated tour of the USS ATHENA in Unreal Engine. Toward the end of the season, I was tasked with mapping the different sets at Pinewood and their locations within the ship as a video.


Obviously it's all previz stuff, so subject to change next season and such.

the concept art also uses the 325301 Registry number that's also on the dedication plaque, instead of 392023 that's on the ship's model.
