I am new to posting here but I wanted introduce everyone to my blog.
It contains 5view drawings of ships from TMP to TNG. The older posts are cut and paste photo edited jpegs while the newer are PDF published pics created from scratch. I have several Toolkits also posted here.

I will post updates here as I complete new drawings and tool kits I hope everyone enjoys these and I look forward to hearing comments on these ships.

I have to wonder what a tre-bush is. Unless you mean, of course, a trebuchet...

Nice work, though. But engineers need to spell, too. ;)
 
It does come from the word Trebuchet (medieval catapult / sling shot). But it really comes from Using it as a log in at several sites. Trebuchet was not available at all sites so I chose Trebuche. If the Blog was about medieval catapults then you would be correct. But it is a blog about Starships created by a guy who uses the pseudonym Trebuche. I think I created my log in for this site even before I used it for the blog. I think it would be tough for most people to justify the spelling for the their online names :).
 
your 5views look really good......do you have the vector files for them? I'd love to throw together a 3d model of some of them and share them with you.

Boy I feel silly saying this but I'm not sure how to send you the vectors Mainly because I'm not sure what they are. I came from the world of photoshopping JPEG and have only recently moved into the world of line drawing. I can send you the original file format that Serif draw uses to save my work in or I can export it in another format if that will help. The format that Serif uses is .dpp. Let me know what format works best and I will do by best to help out.
 
like a format were I can manipulate and move the lines around......not a picture, but actual objects i can change

It's also the name of a common sans-serif type font, very similar to Verdana and Tahoma.

Can you export the Serif Draw file as a PDF? It should then be possible to open the PDF in a variety of vector-graphics applications such as Illustrator and FreeHand.
 
ok i was able to convert one of the drawings to a cad/cam file(.DWG). 1968gtcs and Bernard if you send me an email i can send you a copy. Anyone else who wants a copy of this version just let me know. tomg9800@yahoo.com
 
Small thing I noticed... the name should be spelled "Bozeman"... you use an S in the place of the Z.
 
This is the final version of the Soyuz(I labeled it Semi final in the blog because I thought I might go back and adjust some things. Let me know if there are some details that I might have missed.).
I am going to try to stick with this format where we have multiple pages for all of the views plus a parts page.

I also republished the Knox Class. I had problems with the earlier versions of this Class having distortion s in the topside view when I converted it to a PDF. This has been cleared up and should be a much better download than before.
