It docked upside down, did it not?

obviously a problem with the Nash's gravity generation, i postulate that the graviton polarity has been reversed some how.

A cookie for the

, nice hobbs.

But seriously, there are references to the Nash as a separate smaller class. Hobbs found a good pic of her, hobbs can you post it here please, he has a shot of the model that clearly shows its a Sydney upside down put the letters are right side up. My only beef with it is that the nacells are clearly upside down and they left the bridge model on the bottom. So what do your guys think, i'm going to build her anyway, smaller, but do you think that i should fix the nacells and place the bridge on top or build it as seen on screen, a Sydney class upside down with the lettering right side up. Also what should we call the class, another Australian city?

i think i was confused about all this talk of upside down ships docking lol, so i found some screen shots (not good ones) that do show the ship (the nash) docking with DS9 but upside down... i think i understand now.
the nash was built correctly but it was filmed wrong. so the model below is correct but the shows film crew messed up lol

bankruptstudios · « **Reply #324 on:** December 08, 2009, 12:26:28 PM »

So in looking at the regersty, the lettering is upside down, meaning the ship is up side down and that is why it way filmed up side down, so the nash is a sydeny, up side down.lol

hobbs · « **Reply #325 on:** December 08, 2009, 12:32:14 PM »

or the lettering is upside down and the model is right way up and they filmed it wrong lol

I think the moddeling part is done. Let me know what you think. The rest of the detailing will be done in texture.

I'd say the Nash was upside down, considering that the name is backwards. It looks like it'd be viewed from below.

I don't think so. You can see the bridge and deflector crystal on the same side as the name. The production team probably didn't care that much about which way the reg went cos there weren't any close ups of it in TNG. And also the nacelles are currently facing the right way up if we call the TMP Connie's nacelles "the right way up".

hobbs · « **Reply #329 on:** December 08, 2009, 03:31:17 PM »

yes. i personaly think it was a standard sydney class and was used by the film crew wrong.

bankruptstudios · « **Reply #330 on:** December 08, 2009, 04:21:58 PM »

the film crew didn't do it, it was the modeler, but since it made it into the show it's now considered canon. my question is, since the model is upside down, should I make the bridge on topsince the model has it on the bottom an turn the nacells right side up?

Dalek · « **Reply #331 on:** December 08, 2009, 04:38:19 PM »

All this upside/not upside/bottom talk has confused me.

I think it looks best like it is in those model pics made for the actual show. So nacelles above the bridge and deflector crystal. As for the reg, I'm sure you can use the creative license rule and put it the right way round.

bankruptstudios · « **Reply #332 on:** December 08, 2009, 04:47:07 PM »

I'm hitting the sack. Tomorrow i'll post a pic of the nash in DS9 so you will see what i'm talkinb about. And i'll post a pic of a model that i think it should have been. Cheers.

Those warp pylons are not correct.

I might have gone a little zelles on the damage, but i think she's close. Let me know what you think. Also, would you like damage skins or normal, i thought damage because of the show. Let me know and enjoy.

Bones · « **Reply #335 on:** December 14, 2009, 11:34:00 AM »

I think you should replace crack-damage effects with burn effects, also area around windows is squared clear and that looks kinda cheap,
second thing is registry, Jenolan was TMP ship built around ST5-7 time period, so registries should be black with pale-red outlines.

tiqhud · « **Reply #336 on:** December 14, 2009, 11:44:55 AM »

I think the scratches are fine, she was not in fire fight [hence no phaser damage] she did nt catch fire when she crashed [as far as I recall]

bankruptstudios · « **Reply #337 on:** December 14, 2009, 11:57:08 AM »

Thanks for the nitpicks,

jest kidding. Your right about the reg, i'm jest used to making 24th centry ones. And here hull was in a crash not a fight. The crash cracked her up and the structural integrity field was the only thing holding her together. I'll scale back the damage some, making it more to the studio model, but i need to get some pics of the show caps so i can see it in a darker light.

Bones · « **Reply #338 on:** December 14, 2009, 12:27:48 PM »

Here's the best shot of what I meant about the damage

indeed it looks more like crash now, but you could make it more burned around those cracks just like in show ;) oh I just noticed that registry shouldn't be that tall... I mean it's far too horizontally streched

bankruptstudios · « **Reply #339 on:** December 14, 2009, 12:35:25 PM »

you need to upload the pic, hot linl does not work, or post a link so i can see. Jest so you do know, i do value your input.
