New Star Trek model WIP

**Perry** · #1 03-20-2011, 04:55 PM

Hi All!

After finishing my last model I decided to take a "rest" from military vehicles. So my next one will be based on star trek! I've finished the computer-phase and I'm going into the test-build.

After that I'll release it free ( my Trek models will never be for sale ) and you'll find it in the download section

I'll post a picture of the parts on this tread... without saying what's the subject

... let we see if there are some real trekkers out there :D ( it's very simple, I think )...

first one to reply rightly will be able to choose a personal name and registry number to add as alternate version

PS: be aware! the parts are not orgonized cause I use it for test build and I want to save paper ghgh... the release version will be much less confusionary!!!

WHAT IS IT????

Good model! - in the absence of mistake is a travel pod, I will wait anxiously, salute.

Thats the El-Baz. First seen in the Time Squared episode of TNG.
Named for Farouk El-Baz who worked for NASA during the Apollo
missions

Very cool! Keep the franchise going!!

Right guys!... shuttlepod type 15 from TNG

My model will be available in all the complete screen versions ( I'll not release versions where you cannot see name or registry ) for a total of 6:

El-Baz, Ley, Pike, Onizuka and Voltaire from Enterprise-D, plus Cousteau from Aries

the 7th one will be chosen by vulcan8630 :D... If you decide to use a canon mothership, I suggest you to choose a TNG-era one.

Also, as you can all see, there will be the option for interior.

Stay tuned
Alberto

Beautiful "interior" option! This is one piece I'm going to try my hand at! Thank you for deferring me for the final or "seventh" shuttlepod name....I will be going with "canon" and request the name "Campbell" (of the USS Enterprise-D) (from STTNG eps. "Power Play") to be the seventh Type 15 Shuttlepod name. Thank you Perry! Looks like a GREAT build!

What scale are you aiming for?

Me, i´ve built the late Ulrich Prahn´s shuttles at 1:33,
mostly because i already have some airplanes in that scale.

As other modellers prefere other scales, could you be persuaded
to release the shuttlepod in, let´s say, 1:33 and 1;48?
(just a suggestion)

Rescaling quality is always highest if done by the original designer...
