Phase II Orthos

evil_genius_180 · June 6th, 2008, 07:49 PM

In case anybody missed these (and actually cares

) in Warrior's conversion thread, I made some orthos for this thing. And, since I rarely do orthos and really have no use for them, here they are.

And this I did just because I have the orthos and because I can.

You do know 1964 was a GREAT year, right?

evil_genius_180 · June 6th, 2008, 09:39 PM

Yeah, it was roundabout then that Gene Roddenberry first presented the idea for Star Trek to the studio execs. Though most of what was to be done wasn't finalized (and a lot still wasn't until mostly through the first season) 1964 is pretty much the beginning of the best show ever.

Of course, you probably just think so because you were born in 1964, right?

Darrell Lawrence · June 6th, 2008, 10:32 PM

Nah... Beatles and Mustang in '64... aside from me being born then

cool work man ..

I was just thinking (yes I was) that in your next model of trek perhaps you could add the rear of the bridge the windows as seen in this Andrew Probert concept drawing

That's all right. The other ship in the class that I did textures for is the U.S.S. Nautilus NCC-1979. 1979 was a good year also. Some good movies, Star Trek: The Motion Picture, Alien, The Black Hole, to name a few. And, oh yeah, I was born in 1979.

I don't know how many Federation ships I'll be doing in the foreseeable future. I'm going to enter a challenge at 3DScifi, finish my Klingon Battlecruiser I started last year and possibly do some more alien stuff. However, the windows aren't a bad idea and I considered adding them to version 2 of the Redesigned E but then I didn't.

I'm in some kind of weird ortho making mood lately.

Damn - My outcoming was two years too late to know that...

But - beep - not too late to -beep - see the first man - beep - on the moon live - beep... :laugh:

evil_genius_180 · June 11th, 2008, 09:37 AM

I was about a decade late for that party.

gmd3d · June 11th, 2008, 09:53 AM

awesome work mate .. top class work

evil_genius_180 · June 11th, 2008, 10:13 AM

Thanks dude. I guess one of these days I should release that version of the ship.

gmd3d · June 11th, 2008, 12:19 PM

I looking forward to when their available in LW .. esp the Constitution 11 (does it come in Enterprise name and reg) .. I love to recreate the orignal poster look for TMP ..

mikala · June 11th, 2008, 08:49 PM

No I think it was all about me that year!
I love the pic with the ship specs. Very nice layout Evil!

I never made the Enterprise name & reg for this model. It seemed superfluous since the Connie II version of the Enterprise is the one in TMP, not this model, and I was attempting to make it look as if this model fits into Canon Trek as a Connie II variant.

Textured. Definitely textured. I rarely model text anymore. I've considered making classic TOS-style textures for the ship, complete with the Enterprise name and number (just for the hell of it) but I haven't decided yet if I'm doing that.

ulimann644 · June 12th, 2008, 02:38 PM

Wow, I wish that I could create a mesh like this one day. Today I´ve tried to start the work on my first starship, but after one hour I´ve "discard my nerves" and updated some of my planets...

But I´m looking forward to begin seriously the work on the "DSS_Scharnhorst" in three or four weeks ´cause I´ve more time than as for the moment... :laugh:

No fears - I´m a scorpion-guy, so I know that I would be successful in the end

Darrell Lawrence · June 13th, 2008, 07:36 AM

A fellow Scorpio?

But seriously - Yes, I think so...

Do you know the parable of the scorpion and the fox...

Darrell Lawrence · June 13th, 2008, 04:53 PM

Of course.

But I'm a bit different in the fact I don't sting foxes... I just date them

Not so different as you think... I date them too - and after checking if they have a nice fur I sting them... :laugh:

Phase II Enterprise always catches me off guard, almost movie-prize, not quite.

evil_genius_180 · July 3rd, 2008, 09:12 PM

Yeah, it's what Matt Jefferies came up with for a new ship and then Andrew Probert came in and put the finishing touches on it for the movie.
