CGI MODELLING ARTWORK

NORWAY CLASS This class of ship has seen little in the way of actual coverage on screen. A ship of this class was briefly seen in the background of the battle with the Borg in Star Trek: First Contact. I've set about to build this difficult class of vessel, with only a few reference pictures. It has also been challenging as it is quite different from most other ships, having some uniquely unorthodox features. As I said, there is little in the way of official pictures, so some areas are vague in my mind, so as such this mesh is a little bare bones in places, for the time being.
Reference Pictures of the official design.
As you might be able to spot there are a few weird Boolean faults and smoothing errors yet to correct. Building this ship has not been an easy assignment.
A basic texture here for now. Kurt has chosen not to go with the green/brown textures of the ILM model, but with a more traditional greyish colour. And I think he's wise, the greenish one is pretty nasty, and more consistent with Klingon ships, it doesn't really reflect Starfleet schemes at all.
A few other brief pics here showing a number of modelling amendments, and refined textures.
UPDATE - SEP 25TH 03 New look for the Norway, with updated textures...
