We all start projects, that go nowhere or finish it too fast to start a thread up.

So I though it would be a good idea to start a thread here for the work you want to show off but do not want to start a thread for. Or something you are playing around with but not sure if you will contiune it, but due to the positive feed back could lead you to starting a Thread.

So Let see what you are working on!!

    Okay so to start the ball rolling this is what I have been working over the weekend, as a Break to my space station.
    Not sure if I will continue with it at this moment in time, As I was looking though conceptships.org I can across it sister site ConceptRoborts.org. after looking though the site it inspired me to build what you see before you.
    The first pic is something simple just playing around, but as you can see it starting to take shape.
    As I said not sure if I will continue with this, as I have spent the last three months on my Station and I do want to finish it..

    Looking good freak, me i've been just muddling around without insperation. so I started a simple project the other day, and before you say it looks like something "sexual" in nature, it's the start of a retro Rocket concept, still debating on the spheres though.

    It's not possible to look at that image without dirty thoughts coming to mind, Falin hehe :) Or maybe its just me !

    And that robot face is *really* good freak. So full of character already.

    As for me, ive got two on my hardrive i dunno if i'll get around to.

    One is the starbase/outpost from Picards' painting in his quarters.
    The other is the Excalibur class v4 i was never happy with, which even here was still in its "design/ideas" process.

    At best, the Picard outpost might see the light of day after i finish my current 2 projects.

    I love the idea of making the space station from Picard's painting. You should definitely continue that!

    The other day I was bored and started making a room on a Cylon Basestar, but I'm not that happy with it. I can't get the lighting how I want it, but I don't really need a model of this room for anything, so I probably won't continue with it.

    Thanks Guys. I might do a bit more work on it at the weekend.

    Failn, Rivers3d right, you can't look at that and not have dirty thoughts. LOL

    Rivers3d, I love the idea of building Picards station, I don't think anyone built it. You should carry on with that one, once you finished your current projects.

    Pearse, the room look good. Your right about the lighting, but a few changes should fix that. It would make a great scene in there with a few Clyons.

    Cool thread. I've been meaning to open one of these threads, but never got around to it. :)

    Thanks for making it a Sticky Guerrilla :thumb:

    Rats. Tried making a fancy thumbnail for the forum index, but it didn't show up. Oh well, hopefully people will notice it anyway.

    What if you put it as an attachment into the first post, would it show up then?
  • GuerrillaGuerrilla789 HelsinkiPosts: 2,865Administrator
    I did. Edited your post, but it didn't show up. :p

    Looking at the other stickies in here and in the gallery, it looks like they don't get thumbnails.

    Thanks. :) Yeah, I tried to track down a copy of Will Jaspers' Centurion model that was compatible with C4D, but couldn't find anything. I need to make my own eventually, though, so maybe that'll be a project to work on.

    obrien_jimmy Built one not long ago on 3dscifi.
    I though it had an account here, but I can't seem to find it. Might have been wiped with the site update. I know Ace did alot of house cleaning when he did that.

    Nice work Lee!

    I wanted to work on a particle system to fire phaser blasts, but alas:

    Happens in the Max 2010 demo as well :(
  • FreakFreak1088 Posts: 4,361Member
    Very nice work Lee, your detail work just keeps getting better and better..

    Melak, That suck, someone here should be able to helpout.

    I know that;s why i put the disclaimer in, it'll look less dirty once I put on the wings and other parts.

    Pearse that is one nice room.

    Turns out Max didn't like some of the naughty things I did to my Windows install, another install later (and the same modifications done) it works beautifully. So now I'm rendering away on a short test :D

    I would have to say your test worked out great!

  • Lee80Lee80193 Posts: 458Member
    Melak, the phaser shots look good.

    Badi-Dea nice work so far

    Great idea for a thread. I've been playing around a little with restarting my Forbidden Planet C57D Star cruiser cutaway that I was working on a long time back before my hard drive choked on me. Not really sure how far I want to take it and didn't want to start a whole new thread with the little that I do have. Here's a couple of renders of the whole ship and a couple of just the internal frames.

    trying to find a lighting setup I like for a render with Howie's Chariot

    Number 6, I remember that thread, didn't you get quit far before the HD issue?
    The rebuild is looking great.

    Backstept, once you got that bad boy set up, where going to want to see some pic. there are far to few pic and animations of Howard's Chariot!
  • Number 6Number 6331 Posts: 0Member
    Yes, I had quite a bit of the ship modeled. most of the main deck and a lot of the ships engines and reactor core and internal framework. I was working on the engineering deck and had modeled the little tractor that they had. I still have a lot of the renders but all of the model files were lost so I will need to start modeling from the ground up with all new models. It will give me the opportunity though to correct a lot of mistakes that I had made with the original model but I was to lazy to go back and fix.

    That's some really cool stuff here :D That cutaway looks really interesting #6, reminds me of the NX01 parts that were posted on Doug Drexler's blog. The phaser effect is very nice Leon and that Chariot class is shaping up awesome as well. Here's some of the stuff that I've been doing today :
