Re: USS Grandeur


Well, VEKTOR posted this on Sci-FiMeshes this morning... the nameplate for the hood... minus the hood ornament!

VEKTOR
"Well, it's not much, but I figured I had to show something to prove that this project is still alive.
The gray lines are gaps between hull panels. They have already been cut into the mesh and will eventually be recessed to match the ones on the underside. I'm presently working on these kinds of details all over the ship. The next stage after that will probably be windows."

Image

"With the way my schedule is these days, I can't make any promises, but I am working hard to put together a whole batch of new WIPs before the end of this weekend.

Stay tuned." VEKTOR
---------------------

What he posted looks great! He says that he has several posts he wants to make by the end of the week, so be there and support him if you can. I'm going to try to get him to resign up here and start posting like in the old forum. Captain, see if you can help in that area too, please. emoticon

"...Some of you might find it interesting to know that the hull panels were created by extruding and beveling the gaps between them inward, not by extruding the panels outward. Either way, it's a tedious pain in the butt, but probably not anywhere near as bad as the windows are going to be."
