CGI MODELLING ARTWORK
|
|
This is a new look art section with a different format. I've basically given each class model its own page, and of course by clicking on the thumbs below you can go to that page. This index contains both canon and non canon models.
Brand new tutorials section covering Lightwave basics for starship Modelling, describing tools and techniques necessary to build, in this example, the Constitution Class starship. Tutorial 1 | Tutorial 2 | Tutorial 3
THE OBSCURE SHIPS OF WOLF 359
The TOS era and Pre-TOS
THE OTHERS...
Some animations of some of these starship models...
Please Email Me fellow 3D starship modellers, I'd welcome your feedback / suggestions...
Please, if you wish to use these images on your website, or anywhere else, please ask for my permission first. Thanks.
ABOUT THESE MODELS Some of the older stuff, like Daedalus Class and so forth was done a long time ago now, so it seems (a couple of years ago). A long time ago insofar as the learning curve of 3D modelling goes. Many of these models I could rebuild twice as quick, and more than twice as good. As with every modeller I'm continuing to improve in all areas as time goes by. These works are by my own hand, using 'Lightwave 3D'. The Daedalus class mesh was the first one I attempted, as it is the most basic of all Trek ships to model. It took a while to get it exactly how I wanted it, and to design the surfacing schemes. It will look basic and unrefined compared to my most recent works. One day I'll get round to doing some new and better renders of it. And indeed, probably remodel it, as well as models such as the Ambassador Class, another oldie. Slowly I hope to build up designs for all the conjectural classes and canon classes, and indeed semi-canon classes with no official design as yet - in conjunction with the ASDB. Monitor my modelling progress and see regular updates to these pages!
