U.S.S. DAVID
« on: April 16, 2008, 10:07:53 am »
I was browsing the internet yesterday and came across a nice TNG Oberth design that i thought i could build myself, I belive the modifications to the original oberth where done by Medjai

So Today I have started to build my own version, using his ideas as a point of reference for the build.

Scale I was thinking slighly larger, at 160m

Armourments - will be upscaled but not overly

MutiVector - it will have the ability, tactical purposes asside, once in location, the ship can divide into two in order to speed up the work, whether it be scientific or medical etc.

WIP...

*has an acid trip*  Now that's one nice mesh there.  I will definately download this when it is finished.
The pen is truly mightier than the sword.  And considerably easier to write with.

Looks nice. Good to see some fresh blood around here.

how much would it take to dissolve a 2 floor house?

Probably it's equivalent weight in hydro I'd suspect.. but go for overkill.  :)

Update... only minor additions but very important ones.. added more polies to the deflector rim area and sorted out the bottom of the pylons.

I like it.

THough I find it interesting that everything on the Oberth would be refitted except for the saucer and the aft deck.

Still, the way you rendered the nacelles and saucer seems to bring them together somehow. I'd have thought bringing together two styles would have clashed.

if you cant open up the file you may want to try looking in one of the "autoback" files. if this is the only ship you have been working on recently it still may be there.

Ok, one slight nitpick. Just smooth the transitions of the walls of the deflector housing. Now, it looks like someone at Starfleet Engineering had a bad day at work lol
