3DStar Trek 2009 Shuttle

tobiasrichter

Did a bit of modelling on this one - a few days and some evening later, the model is done - now onto texturing.
I hope it is as accurate as possible, but even examining the BluRay there are some areas never shown clearly, so I had to make some stuff up. There seems to be also slight differences between the real mockup and the CG model used in the movie. Oh well, I guess Starfleet has hundreds of them, so a bit of variation is probably just normal.

great work! I like the "original" Shuttles more but this one is cool too.

PixelMagic

Modeling this for a particular project, or just because?

Excellent modeling, as always. Yeah, you've gotta work with what you've got, which isn't a whole lot. But, you're excellent at working with few references. From what I can tell (from watching the movie) it looks accurate. As for variations, we know for certain there were two different versions, the one you're modeling with the small nacelles up and another with the larger nacelles down. So, it's possible there were other, more subtle variations.

I never realized how much window space the front of the shuttle had.

We'll never truly know.
Joke aside, great work Tobias.

Very cool, always liked that shuttle.

Have you done the big E too?

The shuttle is for an illustration IA’ve been commissioned to do.

Bio - yes, I did the big E a while back, you can see pictures of her in the wallpaper section of our website (www.thelightworks.com) and in the SotL 2011 calendar.

Thanks for the link Tobias, seems you have made just about every major ship from Trek!

publiusr

Very like the Argo..

I'd like to see some original designs...

trekki

Hello Tobias.
Nice work. I love your works.
Would be it not even to be published time again an object?
Maybe sometimes without textures. To see what the users thus from it do.

I totally forgot to post pictures of the finished model....

In the mean time, one of my fellow artists did the Kelvin Evac shuttle...

Hey, awesome on both counts!

evil_genius_180

^Agreed. Those textures almost look real enough to touch. I'm loving the Kelvin shuttle. Both are great designs, but I like that design better.

spacefighter

not keen on either shuttle bu the colour scheme on the second one(with the red bits) is excellent. awesome texturing on both.

biotech

Excellent work.

TALON_UK

I too was not wowed by the design of the hardware for that movie, but these are still cracking pieces of work.

trekki

Great, as always!

BolianAdmiral

Nice work... I always did like the medical livery on this shuttle.

Rekkert

The textures you guys do always take your models the extra mile, I really like these.

Outstanding work as Always! - you have captured the ST09 shuttles 100% : )
But I still really love Ricky Wallace's 2010 TOS/ST09 hybrid Class F Shuttle
