Federation Civil War

XFozzboute · January 19th, 2008, 11:00 PM

Long time no see.

I've working on a idea about section 31 trying to take control of the Federation. These are some of the ships I'm working on. Most are onlt very early rough block ins.
Let's start with two ships designed by Rutgar Warrink.
Two Cardassian ships.

Now for a few federation ships.

The U.S.S. Redwood

The U.S.S. Claymore

The most recent pics of the first ship I started to work on.
The U.S.S. Soval

A shot of what will be the botanical garden.

Nice. I see you posted pretty much everything you've been working on for the last few months. Though, you maybe should've put up an "image heavy" warning in the thread title for slow internet users. Lucky for me, I already had most of it saved to my cache.

Anywho, you know I like the work you're doing.

XFozzboute · January 19th, 2008, 11:47 PM

I am a slow internet user.

A 56k modem and a computer that almost passes for a large paper weight.

evil_genius_180 · January 20th, 2008, 11:18 AM

Yeah, that's me too. Though, because the PCI slots in this thing are fragged, I have an external modem. But there are no drivers for the modem in Windows XP, so it installed it as a generic data fax modem. Somehow (and I'm not complaining about this) my 56k data fax modem connects to the internet at 115.2 kb per second. I don't know how this is possible, but it's friggin' awesome.

some nice work X, loving the details your putting into these...

skyhawk223 · January 21st, 2008, 12:00 PM

Nice work as usual. I like the Soval. Has sort of a Reliant feel to it.

XFozzboute · January 22nd, 2008, 07:31 PM

Thanks.
UPDATE...
More of the botanical garden.

New warp engines for this ship.

I'm also thinking of rebuilding the ship that started it all but was lost when my hard drive died.

Lee · January 23rd, 2008, 02:44 PM

some sweet looking ideas. The flying brick looks interesting...

evil_genius_180 · January 23rd, 2008, 09:42 PM

Yeah, the "flying brick," as LR calls it, is friggin' awsome. I've always liked that design, ever since I first saw it in Star Trek: Insurrection.

XFozzboute · January 24th, 2008, 04:32 PM

UPDATE...
two shots of the shuttlebay door with textures.

XFozzboute · January 25th, 2008, 03:59 PM

UPDATE...
Started to throw down a few hull details and lifeboat positions. The lifeboats are the green boxs.

I'm also playing with Nav Deflector size and position.

evil_genius_180 · January 25th, 2008, 08:43 PM

You should put a big hood ornament on the front.

Seriously, you know I like it.

XFozzboute · January 26th, 2008, 11:27 PM

UPDATE...
Some more detail for the ass section.
For those wondering about the cylinder and box shape. The cylinder is for the M/ARA ejection otherwise known as the warp core. The box is for the ejection of the antimatter pod assemblies. Right now they are just ideas for them. I might just do the as a texture.

A close up.

Lee · January 27th, 2008, 04:51 PM

very nice

evil_genius_180 · January 29th, 2008, 09:26 PM

I like the old school style shuttle landing lights.

XFozzboute · January 29th, 2008, 10:19 PM

Yeah, me to.

UPDATE...
Working out a few details on one of the spoon head ships.

Here you can see the M/ARA ejection and antimatter pod assemblies port. The square at the bottom of the hull is going to be for a tractor beam. I've also added eight lifeboats.

Topside I've added some reaction control thrusters and I'm thinking about more phaser placements.

evil_genius_180 · January 30th, 2008, 10:11 AM

You forgot the little ejection port on the bottom for when someone flushes a toilet.

Seriously, awesome work, bro. As usual, some nice clean modeling on this beauty.

Gives new meaning to the words Crystaline Entity.

LOL!

That's friggin' awesome.

XFozzboute · January 31st, 2008, 06:59 PM

UPDATE...
A small update.
Playing with phaser strip placement. I've got three alternatives so far.

Must be tuesday because the Tractor Beam emitter is being installed. I'll throw on a few small details and it will be done.

Here is the Nav deflector and maybe a ventral phaser strip.

evil_genius_180 · January 31st, 2008, 08:55 PM

If you're taking votes on the phaser placement, I like the 2nd option best.

The nav deflector looks good so far.

XFozzboute · February 1st, 2008, 09:42 PM

I think I'm gonna go with the second option.
UPDATE...
A small detour.
Engines for a Bajoran intercepter.

A quick block in of a one man shuttle pod for the federation ships.

evil_genius_180 · February 2nd, 2008, 12:49 AM

Nice. I like the engines so far. The shuttle is..... a box.

(sorry, there's just not much there yet.)

Lee · February 2nd, 2008, 08:21 PM

Lookin good so far. And I like Option two as well...

Thomas P · February 4th, 2008, 08:47 AM

I really like how your 'boxes' go to detail monsters.

XFozzboute · February 6th, 2008, 10:28 PM

UPDATE...
I haven't felt like doing too much recently but I have gotton a very small amount of work done.
I added winglets to the shuttle and what might be a small storage area above the engine.

Just wanted to seee what they might look like with the ship.

More lifeboats and grid lines.

Thomas P · February 7th, 2008, 08:09 AM

Looks good.

evil_genius_180 · February 7th, 2008, 09:13 PM

Nice work X.

XFozzboute · February 7th, 2008, 09:48 PM

Two more ships. I'm gonna try to cut down on the new designs and focus on finishing at least one or two before I come up with anything new.
U.S.S. Hedora. Might be a Grissom like ship. My original idea was to update the U.S.S. Freedom but it turned in to this.

The Klingon Bird of Honor. I never liked the look of the Vor'Cha or the Negh'Var so this will a variation of the Bird of Prey.
