I've looked at several sources, and moslty trying reverse engineer the studio model.

Found some nice refs yesterday showing the model unaltered in profile so will line mine up to this one.

If anyone has a better set of plans I'll be happy to look and use them.

One bit of suggestion tho. Don't use the Greg Jein model, but the original one. The Jein model is missing a lot of the detailing of the original and isn't 100% accurate to it either.

I agree with you there the Jein ship looks somehow wrong. The only model pics I'm using are the ST3 model.

Was not really happy with the hull base texture so scraped the old one and started a fresh. Much happier with it now and the pylons are done.

Much better - umm still not 100% sure about the colours In the pylons, look better now they're not so bright, but not quite sure lol, otherwise the shine dont bother me as i know the specs will do that but she's LOVELY!!

Awesome, I reckon the shinning is so it shows off the speculars.

i think the textures and model look superb

sovereign001 · « **Reply #3725 on:** February 10, 2012, 09:21:25 PM »

Can someone please read my posts instead of just ignoring them?

I said the textures shine a lot, is it normal? (It looks now like a baffled up ds9 that went through a superb metallic nebula or some kind.) Or do you need to add the brown coloring still?

Sov it is just the way I rigged the light to make the specs pop out it will or subtle in game.

(runs for cover for stating the obvious

)

Bones · « **Reply #3731 on:** February 14, 2012, 03:44:19 PM »

It's a ghost neck !!!1

baz1701 · « **Reply #3732 on:** February 14, 2012, 05:35:20 PM »

No as everyone moans that tmp era necks are thin an weak I decided that there is a force field holding the two halfs together and you beam between the two.

JimmyB76 · « **Reply #3733 on:** February 14, 2012, 05:37:02 PM »

and here i thought that section of the ship was just cloaked lol

Killallewoks · « **Reply #3734 on:** February 14, 2012, 05:38:59 PM »

Was the neck piece was made in France?

CptBenSisko · « **Reply #3735 on:** February 14, 2012, 07:26:05 PM »

The neck won't be installed until Tuesday

@ CptBenSisko
Sir, you get a cookie just for that. :-P You gave me a good laugh.

@Baz
Awesome ship btw.

King Class Scout · « **Reply #3737 on:** February 15, 2012, 09:23:21 AM »

nah, it was probably made here in the states, but they had to send it back 'cause it wasn't built to metric measurements

well, either that, or the trek equivelant of British Leyland got the contract!

baz1701 · « **Reply #3738 on:** February 15, 2012, 09:56:27 AM »

Ok back to the business at hand.

Docking ring well under way. I have also added the thruster ports as well.
