Modeling Challenge Thread

[boberth2o]

Mine is going to be an Apex Enterprises vessel, this is not one for the final submission but i'll do it anyways. The Apex vessel is a mercenary vessel that is equiped with the most advance tech and weapons from Apex. A higher to kill ship. You'll see a model later.

I could be a judge since i'm still learning how to make stuff and i suck at it so i'll take a while.

How the voting coming

[boberth2o]

I only have two of five people

[knowles2]

do you know when the rest will becoming in.

And who is currently leading.

I think need to tell us the results in the next day, even if the rest do not vote. If it currently a draw then used yourself as the decider.



I am probably not going to enter the next challenge, so if you want me to be a judge I will gladly be one.

The Specs are missing so design specs can only be extrapolated from model, however scale of design allows for all features to eventualyl be present unlike other designs.

too small for the features required, looks like an extended midway rather than a space station.

!Congratulations Semmer your our Winner!

The Winner gets this

[Semmer]

YAY!! I won!

Thanks guys, it means a lot.


Obviously I forgot the hospitals, but there's so much room for them that I didn't see it important to mention all the 12 hospitals, 50 cafeterias and suchs.

Defensive platforms were way too small to be added, but again, obviously they are present.




Congrats to all the other participants for good stations as well.

[knowles2]

Well done Semmer

Whats the next challenge?

a quote to a quote

Well I sent the rubric out to all on the committee but I haven't received anything back from them. So if this continues I'll have to do the judging myself, and I don’t want to do that because I don't want lobbyists.

The Second Challenge

Ahhh, The Second Challenge, I've been thinking for sometime for something to do are the second one. After thinking about it before I went to sleep one night (I lost sleep), I decided that there needed to be a Civilian Ship in the fleet(s). So here is the challenge.

You need to create a company that manufactures civilian space craft, weather it’s meant for commercial, industrial, or residential uses. There needs to be a history of the company and the full specs for their ship. You can only use technology that is a real life practicality today and materials that are present on earth or that they use in the show today. There are no set requirements for the size or displacement of the ship, but let it be known that the ship that has the best history, specs, use, and look will probably have the best score. Cheers and Happy Modeling!

Edit: OH! The due date for this will be in one month for tomorrow, in other words November 25th 2008 Midnight EST

I believe that the prize for this will be a Platinum Gate. The Golden Gate as well as the Platinum will be in the style of a Sig for the winner.

post a finished version of your thing, a soon as you read this.

is there a specific timeframe we have to respect :

1 a company involved in current top secret SG program

1' a rogue company (private branch of NID or Trust)

2 a future company (5 to ? years) with the SG program is known to everyone on Earth

3 a far future company (!?? years from now) with the SG program known to everyone but restrictions put on use of alien technology (only way I'd explain why it is limited to tech and materials seen in the show)

4 anything I want as long as it fits with the rules. and when I say anything, I really mean it (alternate realities, Google-owned international space station, alien company interested in Earth economy and so on)

And are we limited to 1 space craft or can we also add support ships and various other installations?

Thx

[boberth2o]

is there a specific timeframe we have to respect :

No, but keep it with in reasonable parameters, no 500 years in the future stuff

1 a company involved in current top secret SG program

One - I dont care

1' a rogue company (private branch of NID or Trust)

One Prime - As long as it's civilian

2 a future company (5 to ? years) with the SG program is known to everyone on Earth

Two - Once again It doesn't matter

3 a far future company (!?? years from now) with the SG program known to everyone but restrictions put on use of alien technology (only way I'd explain why it is limited to tech and materials seen in the show)

Three - Answered by first question, and the parameters already set in the description of the second challenge. Use the Tech but in the show but there are restrictions on the use of the military style weapons and defenses, But if your company develops their own technology without the aid of government information then more power to ya

4 anything I want as long as it fits with the rules. and when I say anything, I really mean it (alternate realities, Google-owned international space station, alien company interested in Earth economy and so on)

Four - anything, anything that would or could be manufactered by a civilian company for either their use or another companies use

5 And are we limited to 1 space craft or can we also add support ships and various other installations?

Yes, one spacecraft, space station, satellite, or whatever you choose. Only one

Thx

Anytime

[thekillman]

what if you have 2 that are used together. IE, the 304 carries 302's
