Can someone help me with Chippy Voyager warp nacelles?

**22point8** · #1 04-06-2010, 12:47 PM

They're the only parts I'm stuck on, I just can't make them, can anyone make a tutorial or something? Also, how do you make them movable like D-Whale has done? I tried e-mailing Zousho as his version of Chippy's Voyager looks to have a different nacelle design, aswell as being a better colour, but he either didn't get the e-mail or hasn't responded, the link to e-mail him on his website comes up with some japanese text that I can't translate in google, so I typed the address.

Well, Chippy is a member here, and his nick chippychua so you can send him a pm to ask him the same

and maybe he will respond to this post

Thanks, I'll PM him, although I have e-mailed him before and he said he lost all the original designs when his hard disk failed in 2003.

Incase I never get a response can anyone else who has built it help?

Well, haven't heard back from Chippy, can anyone help?

I know that you are trying to finish the job but some modelers and designers do not check their builds or mail frequently. May be D-Whale may help you with that problem, he usually checks in at least once a day. Try notifying him.

I don´t know what and where the problem is!?

some of the parts are totally wrong: Impulse engine, bussard collector, underside of the saucer,...! Hard to say but true!

It is also hard to modify the ship with moveble Nacelles!

It is not the first time, that i tell you (22point8), that you should try "Nothings" Voyager! If the 1/1700th version is to small for you, you can also build the big Voyager!

if you don´t like the blue Voyager, you can download here in the forum the grey version! Or you wait a little bit and you can download the best one ever! Look here at the thread:

The enclosed images are what I mean. I'm not skilled enough to do the 1:800 and the 1:1700 was the hardest model for you to build wasn't it? I might try the Gary Pilsworth Enterprise D, I've managed the Saucer section and nacelles before, but isn't it 1:2043 or something, what % would I have to print that on A4 to get 1:1900? That retexturing looks really nice btw.

Can i tell you my honest opinion abaut pic 2 and 3? put it in the trash and restart your build!!!

NO! the NX01 from Clever in 1/1700 was harder!

It is, how it is! I can not change the 3D-Modell! Sorry!

107,5%

Yeah I got them out of my failed attempts (paper rubbish) bag to show what parts I meant, I've actually built all of the rest of Chippy's so its just the nacelles and I'm done. Thanks for the percentage I have to print at for the ENT-D. The post at zealot where I read you say the 1:1700 was hardest was from 2008, so I guess you built the NX-01 after.
