Original Starship Design Thread

[ManiacMike]

You could use some detail on the command bridge. The window could use some depth too, like pull it in some, while adding an outline to the outside of it.

Its looking pretty good so far.

Ill see what I can do. I just finished my aurora model, might as well start fiddling with it to make some different classes.

Theres a number of models on your deviantart

Do you use these, did you ever finish them?
Any help would be appreciated, cant wait for the valkyrie

[ManiacMike]

The flute and cargo ship were both WAY early in my modeling days. Like the first ships I made. Their poop compared to the stuff I can do now, but If you liked them I can probably do a few render's of them.

The cruiser, I actually started to remodel it but it was too weird so I stopped.

[Murcielago]

My latest project pretty much completed.

I like it.

I haven't worked on a ship in a while, think I'll fire up SketchUp now...

[Dr Lee]

Tep, can you please convert Dr. Lee's helo and the F-302 model in the GWVF pack from .max to .3ds format and send them to me?

I've modified the Wasp quite a bit in the last few days, So if you want i could get a .3DS file done for you and E-mail it to you?


I've added a pair of the Mozzie guns along with missile pods and used the landing gear, that was 'borrowed' from a 302 file, from the Mozzie as well

That'd be great. It's

E-mail sent

Out of interest were you requesting the file because you're about to do a scene?

Enjoy

Asgard matter creating thingy

BACKSTORY:

After the destruction of the Korolev and the Prometheus the tau’ri fleet was down to 3 mother ships and a few squadrons of F-302s. Earth needed a more rugged battle cruiser that would be able to take on hive ships and ori battle cruisers 1 on 1. After 4 years of designing and continuous construction they had a new class of warship the Libery-class heavy attack vessel. Designated BC-307 USS Heracles (aka Hercules) is the most advanced, largest, and powerful ship ever conceived by the Tau’ri. Jowever it does have a huge pricetag about twice the cost of the Daedalus. After the evident destruction of the ori, it was dispatched to the ori home galaxy to procure ori technology to use against Michael and setup a permanent outpost in that galaxy similar to the atlantis expedition. These ships are very tough and are expected to stay in service all the way into the year 2042



G-404 Reconnaissance Interceptor

Hull: polarized trinium/titanium plating with an organic shelling and reversed engineered cloaking from a Tel’tac

Armament: dual X-699 laser weapons

Size: 10 meters long 3 meters wide (size of a dart or an ori fighter)

Propulsion: Mark II Naquadria enhanced hyperspace generator

BACKGROUND:

Created in Area 51 from a downed Ori fighter and and a stolen Dart, the G-404 is used as an interceptor to attack mainly other fighters. More maneuverable than an F-302 it can another ori fighter 2 to 1. It is also used for reconnaissance, having a cloak and a faster hyperdrive than an F-302 but needs a longer time to recharge. Currently only serving on the Heracles and has a single squadron nicknamed the Ori obliterators.


Comment plz...

[_Famrir_]

btw the the G-404 is single seated

[SG-Kamikaze]

G-404 Reconnaissance Interceptor
Size: 25 meters long 40 meters wide


More maneuverable than an F-302...

btw the the G-404 is single seated

25 Meters long and 40 Meters wide and only one seat? Or am I missunderstanding this?
How can something of that size be more maneuverable than a F-302 which is around 6 Meters from wing to wing?

PS. Sorry if I'm sounding negative, but I'm not just somewhat confused.=P. DS

[Dr Lee]

I'm in need of a bit of advice.....

I've had a file on my compy for a while now that was going to be a Tau'ri space station. The idea was that it would be a builders and maintenance yard for the ships in the Tau'ri fleet i've created.

This is the latest render...

Spoiler:

The red blocks are a basic blocky representation of the DSC-304, and as you can see the station is designed to have up to four 'docked' at any one time. Also, as shown by my revised Prommie design it can have up to 12 BC-303-B's docked.

It's also got a pair of twin runway Fighter bays and a pair of cargo bays big enought to hold Four of my Churchill cargos ships each.

The problem i have is i'm starting to think i've hit the fanwank limit. And i don't want to.

ATM i've set it up to be armed with 72 massive cannons and a lunatic amount of Missile tubes. Sorting out these will be the main job for today

What should i do to take it away from the Fanwank catagory?

[Crazy Tom]

The number of wepons is overkill....a few asgard ebams strategicaly placed would do the job just fine, suplemented by some railgun turets.

[Dr Lee]

Maybe an Asgard beam on the end of each 'arm' of the station?

I'll leave the guns on the main tower where they are i think

[Crazy Tom]

actualy i think a beam on the ends of each arm, and two on the top and bottom of the hub fo maximum coverage.

[thekillman]

the central station having 6 beam weapons[3 on a turret, one top, one on the bottom]
and the arms having a point defence system[several vls launch systems for LRM's, and some railguns] should be fine
