USS Coventry 2.0

Well... Ive been working for a long while on this over at SFM. And now that the designer and I have worked out all the details, Im starting in on version 2.0 of the Coventry. So here it is. Not much but its a start.

Is this the whole size of the warp nacelle? Seems like the bussard is more than half the assembly! Nice effect - looks promising.

Just the camera angle. Ill get an ortho shot tonight for you.

[Starship]

AWESOME EFFECT !
Good to see a new version of that ship, therefore, I never saw the finished version one. Can you post some pics of her ?

[evil_genius_180]

Yeah, it's good to see you doin' another one of these. I like the first one really well.

As requested here is the original shots of the original Coventry mesh and a side view for the nacel.

[evil_genius_180]

It looks more streamlined already.

Looks great . like everone I love the effect

Thanks... Still not quite happy with the bussard coweling. Im trying to apply a liquid metel vid onto the red glass, but Im having trouble finding a balance between the effect and still being able to make out the three light bulbs.

[gmd3d]

Still ! It looks super and very clear gives the impression of Power..

[Thomas P]

Ahh.. now my old eyes can see it . Still looks very promising!

Small update... Not much.

[evil_genius_180]

Looks cool.

Wow I have never seen so much detail inside the bussard section before. Like so many models I have seen since coming back to 3D Gladiators this is awesome!

More and more people are trying to show more of the insides of the model inorder to do close-ups.

My goal... Build a ship room by room.

Sigh. Everytime I see work THAT good, I sometimes wonder if I'll ever manage. Lovely detail on the warp drive. Heh.
I get lots of ideas from the pics here. None worth showing yet, though I'm planning something that LOOKS promising, if
I can get enough reference material to do it.

um... I don’t know if I should be showing this (out of shear embarrassment), but this is how I started. It was a spoof film series that a friend asked me to help with for his church group.

…actually Im not going to show it. I cant get the file. Maybe later.

[evil_genius_180]

Looking great. I love the shapes on this one.

Thanks... Im still working on the blue section. Its not quite to the shape of the design ASR set forth.

[evil_genius_180]

ASR does some badass Trek designs.

Yea... He's doing my Phoenix. Or helping to fine tune the design.

[evil_genius_180]

Is that one you did a bridge for?

Lets see... (too many projects)

For the Coventry Iv started in on the Ship, Bridge, Ready Room, Observation Lounge, and an Engineering section

For the Legacy Class, All of deck 1.

For the Phoenix it will be Ship, Bridge, Ready Room, Observ Lng, Engineering, Sickbay, Transporter room, Shuttle Bay, Fighter Launch bay, Hazard Operations and Locker room.



And then… World Peace


By the way... Here is ASR's dorsal of the Phoenix

[evil_genius_180]

That's awesome. She'll be a tough build but I have faith in your abilities.

...just not my time

At the rate Im going I wont get at this till next summer

By the way... If anyone is interested in helping with any of these, I would be eternally grateful

[Lee]

wow that looks great...one of the best nacells i have seen...

Unfortunatly... If you want to see a REALLY BIG render of this you will have to check out SFM

Actually, They were too big for even that site... Click Here
