MSD, Wells Class
I'm Capt Hensley, of the USS Pabilli, a Wells Class Time Ship.
I've been working in Adobe CS3, Illustrator creating Deck plans and ultimatly a nice Canon as possible MSD, I'm looking for anyone who is working on a simalr project to compare notes with. 2D, 3D, Game or Nongame work that is as close to canon as possible. However any work will be stimulating.
I am a Senior Member of Okudagrams.com, and to this point all my work is exclusivly posted there. I have posted this WIP to give you an idea of how committed to this project I am. BTW it's part of my Masters thesis.
So please any help is welcome, however I have the Relativity episode on DVD, so screen caps from the show are not neccessary. I have also studied ADGES panels, so his work is also a known factor. Otherwise the sky is the limit. All input will be appeciated. Upon completion of my project I plan to make all the work public on my web site. If you help me with source material now I may by pursuaded to relinquish some of my work now.
DEIF and Kmpr_Rak of Okudagrams are great friends and have made contributions, they will vouch for my sincerity.
This preview is old but gives the general idea, I have made many updates to the deck plans, and this MSD. With everyday it gets closer to canon. Your help can make it better. Thanks

Why do you have only a landing gear at the front, and one that would be so short it would not touch the floor, as the deflector dish is higher than the legs would be able to extened?
Yes there is a great deal more, but right now I'm pretty exclusive to Okudagrams.com. (free to join, guest accounts are available, but my work is in membership only thread.) I will put together a better set of teasers, but since it's still very much a work in progress, even the teasers will be misleading to a certain point.
I'm sure anyone who has been doing graphics from scratch with limited resource material like me can attest. It's not the imagination it's the evolution that seems to get in the way. There always seems to be a better way to do it.
Compare and Contrast late 29th century Sci-Fi Treknology with the 20th century non-fiction equivalents. (specifically the Wells Class time ship depicted in the 3rd season episode of ST Voyager called "Relitivity")
Expand on the Sci-Fi Treknology and develop your own Sci-Fi Treknology to complement the missing pieces assumed present, and canon pieces depicted.
Assemble and present Sci-Fi hard evidence that supports your conclusions. Root your conclusions in the known 20th century technology, science, biology, and physics, prove the fictional things have fiber and basis. Current Theorhetical studies are permitted as evidence.
Publish your findings in a public forum. (preferably a recognized format like a book.)
So you see I have my work cut out for me. I am 7 Months into the research, construction, and writing of the new project.
There will be two products from my labor. A Tech Manual, and a full set of ortho graphic deck plans.
I wrote a backstory four years ago, submitted it to Paramount/CBS two years ago, and was shot down this summer. But all is not lost on the story. It became the basis for my new line of study.
Keep in mind I'm a hack-amature, and Star Trek fan, but not a Trekkie.
Thank you for asking.
The gear are telescopic (3, like present day aircraft), based on a polymerized alloy that colapse nicely into the space provided by two or three decks of height. But most Trek fans can appreciate the fact that actually landing a Star ship, or Time ship is not practical or encouraged, and very rarely imortalized on film. And while archaic in nature, they still have a purpose. They consume area in the ship, are by design functional and have basis in canon reference. The Wells Class, USS Pabilli, (My ship) is the only Federation ship to use it's gear in 300 years of space travel. Or so my story says. (it has the bold "James Kirk would do that", feel to it) You really need to see what I have come up with, quite comical, "Big Bird" style chicken feet (sort of) unstable looking, landing stilts. But hey, show me the canon stuff, where it goes, and I'll put it in like it should be. Give me canon or I'll just run with my own ideas as if they were canon.
PS. Don't forget your looking at very unfinished WIP above.
Looks good though!
Far out, some more feedback, Do you have an example I can use for reference, (that is not from the relativity epi)
I've posted this in Bridge Commander Central as well, a little old but small enough to post.

The file size limitation in this forum is very small, too small.
My resource images are caps from the VOY DVD episode "Relativity" and Adam Heinbuch's drawing set which is very close.
