ulimann644´s Fleetyard
 
Hi

Last month I begun to model the STARDUST/DEFENDER-CLASS. (DEFENDER-CLASS with 3 Narcelles for a girls Fan-Fiction Series. I know - the third narcelle UNDER the ship is a horror - but the USS DEFENDER in her series has a Narcelle at this position. So... ;)) Both Designs are WIP.

The second new model is a strategic Starbase for my Fan-Fiction STAR TREK - DIVIDED... (Also WIP)

Actually, I like the 3rd nacelle under the ship better than over it. I'm not a big fan of 3 nacelles, but I think it looks better this way.

Great start on both meshes. :D

It´s a long time... How you doing ulimann ? :)

As you wrote, naceles in the underside don´t looks cool... Looks like a kitbash, and remember the Niagara class. But it´s her design, so.... nothing to do. :)

The station looks cool. ;)

Unfortunately both meshes rest in peace... :( after a HD-Crash (ARRRGH...!!) :bonk::bonk::bonk:

But I think, I´ll make it new next year... :)

In the moment, I work on two new models - the first is a DAEDALUS-CLASS variant created by Christopher Freeman. I saw his Design by writing my FF-MU-Story "Inheritance of the Empire" - and one of the main-characters use a DAEDALUS as his Flagship.
So I decided to make a MU-Version - based on Freemans Design (but a little larger - Lenght 239 Meters...)

The Model so far:



The second project is a model of another Fan-Fiction-Starship, I´ve created in 2009 as a sketch on paper...
The Battleship-Carrier EAS SHERIDAN
Now the first episode of my FF-Series BABYLON-6 (the inofficial name of Military-Starbase: MFB-VI-023, used by the Crew... ;) :D) is written, so it´s time to start with the Flagship of the main-character: Generalmajor Lynden B. Hayes...
This ship was commissioned in November 2291 (ten years after Sheridans "death" in the episode "Sleeping in light")

The Model so far:


Hope to finish the DAEDALUS this year (31. 12. at 23:58 or so... ;) :D) and the EAS SHERIDAN next year...

Never mind... ALmost one year later of my post, a repply!
It´s good to know you´re still alive and kicking Ulrich. ;) I´m sorry about the hd crash.
The new Dedalus lokks to much cool. All the elements were well integrated and works very well together. ABout the Sheridan, I fell the missing of something... maybe the rotating "arms" ? :D
Looks like your skills evolved a lot in the meantime. Welcome back old friend! ;)

Thank you...

Unfortunately I was a longer time in a hospital - so I can´t answer some posts in different forums, but now I´m okay again... :)

The SHERIDAN is a modern ship that didn´t need Rotating-Sections... ;) It should be a mix between the OMEGA- and the WARLOCK-CLASS.

The last two years I tried to learn more about C4D and MAX (not easy, ´cause my true passion is to write Fan-Fiction - and that takes much of my time... ;))

Many thanks - now it´s time to build all the little details I guess... ;)

Longer time in a hospital?! I don´t want to be intrusive but looks like it was serious. Some sort of accident?
Well, hope that all is going fine for now. :)

Re: ulimann644´s Fleetyard
 
Nice work. I was doing that version of the Daedalus a while back, but I lost interest and haven't finished it.

Re: ulimann644´s Fleetyard
 
I´m on the way to test some structures for the Hangars of the EAS SHERIDAN. I´m not sure if I´ll use red or blue lights inside for the final version...



I´m also working on the ISS DAEDALUS - a few Details are now ready...
I think, that I can finish the model this year, but I guess that the Textures will take more time...

UPDATE:
I´ve worked a little more on the details for the Hangars of the EAS SHERIDAN...


Starship December 6th, 2012 04:57 AM

Re: ulimann644´s Fleetyard
 
I think that red works better for the hangar.

Looking good. :)

But I like the blue lights... ;) :D

Many thanks.

I´ve worked this afternoon at the DAEDALUS too...

Great stuff. :D

Re: ulimann644´s Fleetyard
 
Hossa...!!
I´ve worked hard on the DAEDALUS the last days, and it´s nearly ready for duty now.
Only a few details and the Imperial Admiral: John Jefferson Pickett can lead it into action...

The most details (also the red lines) are modeled - I´ve just used four Textures (one for the Imperial Logo, and three for the hull) for this model...

Re: ulimann644´s Fleetyard
 
Nice. Very nice :)

The deflector dish - Just a minor suggestion, but make it a bit darker and more red-brownish in color to see how it looks.

Thanks for the tip - I´ll do it the next days, when I model the four thruster and positiion-lights at the lower half of the primary-hull...

Re: ulimann644´s Fleetyard
 
Though, right now, it's very similar in color to the one on the NX. ;)

True...
My ISS SCHARNHORST-Model is nearly colored this way - and in my Fan-Fiction the ISS DAEDALUS is commissioned just six years earlier...

So I give this model colors that matches with the NX-Class and also with my SCHARNHORST...

Here are the final Orthographics...
Pics of the final model, I´ve posted here:

Really nice...
The first day of my vacation, so I can sleep a little longer, and... I waked up at 03:20 a.m. and can´t sleep anymore... :nuts:

So - this is the result of a sleepless night... (10-11 hours or so...)
The basic-form of the planned MARYLAND-CLASS.


Later it should have two Narcelles at short Pylons at the sides and a weapons-pod, like the SOYUS-CLASS, behind the Bridge... (but a little smaller, as the SOYUZ-Variant... ;) :D)

evil_genius_180 December 20th, 2012 09:08 AM

Re: ulimann644´s Fleetyard
 
I usually don't even go to bed by 3:20 AM. :tongue: Though, yesterday, I woke up at 9 AM after going to bed around 5 AM, so that was probably about the same difference. ;)

Nice work so far on the ship. I've always liked the Soyuz-class, so something based on it sounds cool.

Okay - here is the MARYLAND with a few more Details...

She's looking good so far. :)

In my time zone, I usually roll into bed around 4-5 in the morning. I also go to work at 3 in the afternoon and get done at 11 at night, so that may explain why I'm on a different schedule than some people. ;)

@EG180
I know what it means...
In my time in Vienna I worked four years long from 14:00-22:00 (official, but sometimes from 12:00-01:00 - also Saturdays...) :wtf: :wtf: :wtf:

BTT:
My Ugly Flying Pancake is nearly ready (Now you really know, what UFP means... ) :D

Re: ulimann644´s Fleetyard
 
It's a good looking ship, but the underside is a little plain.

ulimann644 December 30th, 2012 01:51 AM

Re: ulimann644´s Fleetyard
 
@EG180
True.
That´s the reason why it´s still WIP...

I plan to give it - aside from some plates - two Pulsphasers and the contours of the retractable undercarriage. (And than I can use it for some FF-Covers... :))

evil_genius_180 December 30th, 2012 09:59 AM

Re: ulimann644´s Fleetyard
 
Sorry, I misunderstood. Whey you said "it's ready," I thought you meant it was done. :blush:

My bad english... ;)
I mean the visible underside of the "landing gear"...
But I´ve decided yesterday that this "landing-gear" is not visible in flight, like that at the VOYAGER.

I´ve added some more details and the two Pulsphaser-Cannons - and I think it´s enough now - I want to render it later for some covers and for my FF-WIKI more from the upper side... ;)


I know that this model is not very detailed and also really not made professional but I´ve just made it, that people can imagine, how the MARYLAND-CLASS basically looks like.

And I guess it´s not sooo bad for a FanFiction-Writer... ;) :D
