    Using splines on this build?
    Each day we draw closer to the end.

    I'm gonna do the TNG version, Though I suppose the TOS one would be a qiuck modification.

    MKF: No splines are involved, just a bit of SubD. But as you said before Eaves' ships have a couple "anti-SubD" parts, so a lot of "manual work" :p

    I tried speedmodelling this one using the schematics he posted, but any 1 view conflicts with 2 others...so I'm just sticking to the 3/4 drawing and trying to match that up.

    This was one of the designs for Perpetual's ST Online, and it shares a common nacelle design with most of them.
    here is the drawing I'm working off (click to enlarge):

    Thanks!
    Ozy, didn't you say you wanted to take a crack at one of his designs too? I'm looking forward to that, can never have too many of Eaves' ships modelled :D

    Hope to have an update for you guys later today :)

    Nice start. I've been thinking about doing the ramjet myself, although this is a really cool design you've chosen.

    SWEET!! I had no idea that John Eaves had a blog!!! I'll definately add the link to "Star Trek: New Worlds", (both the yahoo group and geocities site.)

    Wow, thanks everyone :)
    I've mostly been trying to figure out how to make the bottom look, so not much of an update yet - I did start on the nacelle though:

    Looking great man. I know what you mean about consolidating some of the orthos. I tried blocking out the ramjet this weekend and had a little trouble consolidating the views. I might take your approach and just use the 3/4 view. Your's is looking really great.

    Thanks for all the kind words guys!
    I've been quite ill the last couple of days, getting better now. Sorry no update just yet.

    jay-mo, I know exactly how you feel, I tried modelling that one real quick when Eaves posted it, but went nearly nuts :D

    Can you show us a wireframe? IA’m intrigued how you built the "saucer"... It started with a booleaned sphere, boxmodelling or splines?

    Keep at it Melak, I think a few of us here all seem to be focusing on a different ship each, would be cool to get an image done at the end of it with the entire collection for STO :-)

    A wireframe, your wish is my command :cool:
    Basically I just created a cylinder, deformed it, and deleted half of it for the front. Extruded straight to the back and cut in the cutouts manually.

    Suricata: And then we can show Cryptic what they are missing out on, having dumped or redesigned Eaves' ships :p
