New Ship, not sure what to call it yet
Hi Everyone,
I've not been about much, but I have built this ship, it actually started as a different ship,the U.S.S. Challenger, which I wasn't to happy with, but I did like the saucer section, so I kept that and built the rest of the ship around it.
I've got another image somewhere, and a link to a fly-by, I'll add them a bit later
Cheers
Billy

I'm also building a couple of interior props for this, I'm part way through the bridge, I'll post some images when I have something worth showing
Cheers

Wow, very nice! I especially like the style, the looks are really classic TOS. Bussards as well, really well done!

Thanks Erik, I've been a bit side tracked, so I haven't done much to the bridge in a while, I'm hoping to get a bit more done over the next few days though, I'll render out an image of where I'm up to at the moment and post it for you to look at

I restarted the bridge, I wasn't happy with some parts of it, here's where I'm up to atm, the renders aren't too great as I've yet to set up the lighting correctly, and I also need to tweak the textures, the chair supports are too silvery, and the floor texture pattern is a bit too big

I like it! Nice blend of classic and some more modern Trek, also nice scaling compared with the character.

Thanks Erik, slow going right now, real life is back rearing it's ugly head, so I've had almost no time to work on this

Thank you both, still not much progress on the bridge, I'm back at work and in the process of moving to a new factory unit, so not getting much time to work on anything at all.
