You can find Gorn, ISC, Hydran, Bolian, Vulcan, Romulan, Feds, Klingon (from pre-tos to 32nd century), reman and dominion ship concepts at present. Some are rough but most are quite heavily detaild. Have at it guys.

That's some fantastic work, Atolm! Thanks for posting, starforce. I would love to model some of those. No time

HawkHart · May 4th, 2004, 08:30 AM

Some really nice designs there, if I was a Start Trek modeler I'd be tempted to say the least

021310061976 · May 4th, 2004, 02:57 PM

i'm seriously tempted, but i have more or my own projects unfinished right now than i know what to do with.

really nice work... reminds me a lot of the design work of john eaves.

I have opened a gallery for finished models and another for WIP's and added some pix.

none of the links on your web site work, damn

021310061976 · May 5th, 2004, 11:57 AM

it's slow, but the site loads for me.

May 5th, 2004, 03:02 PM

they were doing some server maintenece. They said wednesday sometime which probably explains it. They got afew more issues comming up for upgrades and stuff so if it's down that's why.

shipchaser · May 5th, 2004, 05:50 PM

Damn!...That Atolm/Azel stuff is cool!

Alot of It has that organic/fossil look to it that you'd expect from the perfect blend of Star Trek, palentology and one hell'uva lot of talent.

I vote Atolm for head art director at Paramount!

May 9th, 2004, 10:14 PM

Again I just love this stuff, I really really do

Great work Atolm

Might I ask what your inspiration other than Trek is?

May 12th, 2004, 03:28 PM

You know what would help? being you are constantly hiting up sweet new designs...puting a date in the corner so we tell what is new vs. what is old

give it a thought eh?

Interesting stuff man. Most of my die-hard Trek friends don't like you stuff, they call it Anime. But I really really like it alot. It just speaks to me on some level, guess that makes it art

Sorry to say this but some of the most Die Hard Trek fans have forgotten about Sci-Fi
(not yours specifically but you know what I mean...SW vs ST, or continuety errors)
I have to make 2 quotes... both said by Kirk
"What V'ger needs to evolve is a human factor...our ability to leap beyond logic"
and my personal favorite
"Come now, Mr. Scott...Young minds fresh ideas Be tollerant"

I know that alot of my Designs are far fetched...But I stated from the start that they would be...I love to push the envelope...to see how far I could get with a particular race's design before it no longer looks like their design.
Look at it like this ever seen WW2 German concept aircraft??? Now those was very revolutionary and highly radical designs/concepts, but they did work and furthered our knowledge of aircraft design and flight.
The same could be said of the F/A-117 Nighthawk...As nothing in the history of flight looked remotely like that jet and still it was proven to work...
That's the way I approach design...not by taking the "next logical step", but by rather taking an idea or theory and running with it...

As for my designs looking like anime...well that may be possible as a few I did design to be very Anime-ish, but sometimes the result is very misleading as I draw and color in inks...I donot use ang fancy progam to do schematics aor drawings...I just draw and scan

Thanks for your support as I am deeply honored

why am I unable to view the USS Premonition image? says unavailable due to maintenance for over 4 days now......hell of some maintenance

May 19th, 2004, 02:00 PM

yea it's getting a little sickning. I wish they'd fix it.

May 20th, 2004, 02:14 AM

From what I can see in the thumbnails they all look good, Atolm...but your server is having troubles again apparently, and I can't pull up the full size shots...

May 20th, 2004, 12:09 PM

darkwing duck..lol..I remeber that show.

Thanks! I've been around and about...spend a lot of time over at TrekBBS these days, and some lurking at Flare. For awhile this place kind'a went dormant, but I heard about this thread elsewhere and decided it was time to put in another appearance...

I like the new look, btw!

Now if someone could just figure out why all the pics are "down for maintenance"...

seanr · May 24th, 2004, 01:24 PM

Looks like the idiots hosting atolms pics corrupted their disk and were too damned stupid to keep backups.

http://fotopic.net/help/may04_disks.php

NEVER reply on free providers - they screw you every single time (I'm starting to think they do it on purpose).

BTW, I'm still trying to figure out why atolm never posts his own work... *confused*

May 25th, 2004, 03:06 AM

Hey Sean! Been awhile! Got any new bridges in the works?

I've asked the same thing myself.

seanr · May 25th, 2004, 07:17 AM

Not really. Been very busy with other (non-3d) stuff.

May 25th, 2004, 08:19 AM

I kept ~some~ of Christopher D. Reyes' work (but unfortunately not ~all~ of it) on my site, including one he didn't feature on his site...the Tyrannus-Class (Intrepid/Defiant hybrid) in the photos area ("Best Of Atolm" folder):

I couldn't find that folder...is it still up?

You have to join the group to view any of its files. Get that site the heck off of yahoo and get a real host.

Yahoo Groups ought to be shot down due to excessive shazbottiness.
