right here or 2 ships that i am working on, need some feed back on them
-
Hmmm... strange. Looks interesting so far.
-
here is a up dated picture of one of the ships
-
A lighter hull and bigger bussards would be good imho ^^

good job, what class is it? what role would it fill? science ship??
-
I like the voyager looking one, is that a long range scout? I hope so lol. Plus I like the Small one, it's kind of quirky.
-
I'm definitely feeling the 2nd ship..(voyager style) It reminds me of a troop or passenger transport..Primary engines for interstellar flight remains in orbit while the transport with the secondary engines prepares for atmospheric entry. I especially like how the secondary engines on the transport are tucked in the body. Reminds me of a sky diver planting his arms by his side and shooting towards the ground :D Nice job.
-
The first screenshot looks really good - a sort of modern Miranda class?
Great concepts!
-
just a quick up date with one of the ship
The Mayflower class MVAM ship ship hard points are coming along
here is a picture so far
-
work on improvong those textures and I think you got a couple winners.
-
lighten up those "lines" and add some aztec-ing ^_^
-
Here goes:
For ship NR.1: take of the bump effect from the aztecs, and in the future, try to draw aztecs by hand, don't use generic patterns, believe me, it's more rewarding that way. Also, I do not see any clear indication of a shieldgrid. The escape pods are not of a uniform size, they seem to the biggest on the saucer ventral, smallest on the dorsal saucer. Things that that ship is missing are as follows: thrusters, teleporter pads, some machinery (you really need to look at well made fan ships and cannon ships on this one), sensor grids.
For ship NR.2: take the shieldgrid opacity down to about 30-40%, add stuff that are missing from ship NR.1 (excluding the shieldgrid, since you obviously unaware, added them, they're the machinery on the saucer edges, but that doesn't mean that all ships should have it that way) and aztec her.

What everyone has said is feedback and constructive criticism. IMO, it would greatly improve your work.
-
1; Right the 1st Ship is on old at this time
2; The 2nd ship has been name the May flower and is hard pointed but i am going to rework the textures, here the information about ship (thanks to Gmunoz)
Mayflower Class Colony Support Ship
274m
Commissioned in 2420, as an effort to reduce costs to re-supply deep space stations, explorer ships and planetary terra-farming communities, the United Federation of planets envisioned the Mayflower Class as being the colony support workhorse for the Federation, serving many diverse roles. They are lightly armed and shielded and although classified as medium-range starships, they cannot outmaneuver ships designed for combat and are dependent upon an escort for protection. Mayflower class ships are capable of atmospheric flight and surface landing in direct response to the development and use of a stable form of transporter inhibitors and subspace scattering fields to impede ship to shore and site-to-site transporting of personnel and equipment. For long distance deployment, they can be attached to specially designed Warp Sleds which increase passenger and cargo capacity and have a small shuttle bay that can hold two Type 6 shuttles and are also capable of operating as independent ships.
3; the 3rd ship design is taken from Star Trek The ship of the line 2007, july ship. What i think is the Altair class here some screen shots of her so far
-
Nice! There are some major smoothing errors on the bridge, though.
-
wow, that's great ^^
-
update pic
-
The nacelles look a bit squished.
-
I like it, looks like a Federation Romulan ship. Or something from the Future of Trek. I would push the nacelles down and give them an enterprise J look. Then we'd have another Future Tense ship.

He's attempting to make it look like this, featured in Ships of the Line.

-
you should stretch the nacelles out a bit, they are actually the same as the ones on the Enterprise J
Doug Drexler did a couple of blog posts about the ship on his website, http://drexfiles.wordpress.com/ (http://drexfiles.wordpress.com/)
-
Well, I never bought a ship of the line before, but they do look Enterprise J like :P
-
its the same class as the ship in The ship of the line, plus the mayflower class has been hardpointed but i am reworking the textures
-
oh heres my gorn ship
i ve got too much time on my hands
-
Wow, I want that Gorn ship. That's one of the biggest races that I miss from the TOS. Yeah the Feds were enemies with the Klingons and Romulans, but the Gorn started it all.
-
the gorn ship started off as a fed/vulcan/Romulan mix but she grown in size and power.
here is the 1st draft of the read me for the ship
The Gorn battle ship is big, around 2400m. due to the size of the Gorn (ie an average height of approximately two meters) and is the the main type of ship used by the Gorn Confederation.
Gorn Confederation is a powerful empire located coreward of the Romulan Star Empire, also bordering the United Federation of Planets and the Interstellar Concordium. It comprises three genetically related races, each from a neighbouring star system, knows as Ghdar I, Ghdar II and Ghdar III.
History
The Gorn had contact with the Orion Syndicate as early as 2154 and from that day they still use them to steal technology. To outfit there ships thats why this battle ship has mulitpul technology
During the Dominion War the Gorn were allies of the Cardassians and the Dominion, and fought against the other Alpha Quadrant powers.
-
Here is an update to the Gorn ship. The pulse phasers have been replaced with pulse cannons and several more lateral facing cannons have been added to give this ship a devestating barrage capability.
-
I think you guys have a good thing going here, but you need to fix those mesh / smoothing errors around the windows :)
good stuff
-
here are some more of the gorn family the battleship is ready but the other are still very early in design
-
Ooh, I like :P
So a Gorn Dreadnought, a Battleship and a Cruiser... Nice! (Hm, maybe I play a bit too much EVE Online... at least I didn't say Titan...)
-
I can't help but think that they look like an X-303 with a Vulcan warp drive. Awesome!
-
I was thinking that the medium one was a Vulcan ship...
Real neat design though!
-
These are nice, I hope they're balanced towards the TOS though, I downloaded a few ships and they're way too powerful for standards. Cause I never heard anything of the Gorn past TOS.
-
I really like the Gorn ship, the only thing i think that you should change is the colour of the windows, i think if you went for the normal white look it would help give the ship more depth.
-
The TOS Gorn has already been well established and redone several times so these ships are intended to be balanced for post-Nemesis as a Gorn "Resurgence". I think we need a new but familiar enemy that is formidable due to the Klingons members of the Federation for some time now, the Dominion?s but being kicked, the Romulans opening diplomatic relations after the events of Nemesis, the Cardassians basically a bunch of wimps and the Borg licking their wounds. However, opinions are welcome.

Great ships (and designs)...but they all need better smoothing...

[offtopic]You know, you could use the Fen Domar mentioned in Endgame. Not even the Borg killed any of Voyager's bridge crew and not that many crewmen. For example, if Voyager did continue on its course rather than take the transwarp tunnel, they would have met the Fen Domar in battle. Voyager obviously survived if Janeway got back to Earth, so they must have won. Well, here's the timeline I envisioned.
If Janeway didn't go back in time-
-Voyager runs into the Fen Domar. They deal a crippling blow, but lose some crew in the process.
-Because Voyager did this, the Fen Domar are set back significantly (possibly a planetary battle in which the leader of the Fen Domar government is killed, or releasing slaves almost solely supporting the economy.)
-Voyager makes it home, and the Fen Domar are unable to trace them back to Earth because they have their own problems to deal with.
Because Janeway intervened-
-The Fen Domar prosper without the encounter with Voyager.
-They spread like a plague.
-They reach the Federation and wreak havoc.
So now you have an excuse to make a new enemy for the Federation.[/offtopic]
Can't wait to see what you do with the Gorn, fellas! :)
-
right heres a new ship. This picture is not the best as soon as i got some better screen shot i post them, the class is a advanced battle cruiser the barrier class yes its a sov kitbash but i think i have done it well
-
Very curious, I quite like it! :)
-
here more updated pictures
-
That's pretty cool.
The only nitpicks are in the textures. It looks stretched out in several places, especially in the impulse engines and shuttlebay.
-
That is quite cool. I like the jetplane/weapons pod as well!
-
Wow, those are some really beefy pylons!
-
interesting... can you choose a brighter system though? the first two pics are hard to see....
-
That jetplane/weapons pod is actually a Multivectoral Attack Wing!
-
Hmm, an MVAW...fascinating. :P
-
Indeed fascinating. I was thinking of giving that a pass(Sovvie bashes aren't really my thing), but that's pretty darn neat.
-
Almost complete. Here are some update shots:
-
now that's what I call creativity :D
-
yup, the MVAW is and awesome idea! 8)
-
you just keep getting better and better
-
just a update on the Barrier Class ive sent it to bc file front so should be ready for download soon he is the read me for the ship, a big thanks to GMunoz for doing it
Barrier Class Federation Battle cruiser - 527m
Barrier class ships are pure battle cruisers based upon the primary hull characteristics of the Sovereign class but in a more compact design, thus resulting in a stronger hull and higher impulse speeds and maneuverability than the larger Sovereign. Most of the interior space is devoted to shuttle bays, propulsion systems, and weapons with little in the way of scientific capability or modularity. The Barrier's armament is potent for a vessel its size and is arranged to deliver devastating alpha strikes and full 360 degree phaser coverage. Regenerative shielding and several centimeters of Ablative Armor serve as defense, along with the vessel's surprising agility.
This ship has one unique feature: a detachable weapons pod that operates as an independent sub light Attack Wing providing the Barrier with Multivectoral Attack Mode capabilities. It is a formidable craft for its size, equipped with advanced targeting sensors, weapons systems, and defenses, its sleek design gives it good handling characteristics in an atmosphere and provides fleet and base defense as well as support for ground troops, and securing planetary and small space targets.
ARMAMENT
22 Advanced Burst Phaser Arrays (18 main hull, 4 attack wing)
13 2-shot Photon Torpedo Tubes (10 main hull, 3 attack wing)
2 Quantum Torpedo Launchers (1 main hull, 1 attack wing)
4 Heavy Pulse Phaser Cannons (2 main hull, 2 attack wing)
4 Light Pulse Phasers (attack wing only)
