Nice image but too small. I can't see it.

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 05 Apr 2010, 02:07

Very funny Marcel!! (I removed the image of the blimp, becuase I am taking this in a different direction.)

marcel · Post by **marcel** » 05 Apr 2010, 13:17

it look like the Nautilus by jules verne. A kind of submarine floating in the sky.

Indeed. I thought the same thing two. 20,000 leagues above the sea!

It has something to do with those guys?

Now seriously... I think that a great start!

Yeah I am having a play on words with this MMC. Glad you are in the spirit leon, and got it. Gotta Love that picture. They look like they are in drag.

Ok here is an update. I have been racking my brain on a body for this ship. I think I have come up with one, with a little helpe from the Clone Wars cartoon.

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 06 May 2010, 20:11

Small update. I moved the lift motors to the underside of the ship. I like that better.

Nice modeling so far Rjeff.

Nice work, the two parts should go together nicely i think

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 06 May 2010, 20:59

thanks guys. Still got alot to do.

theuns · Post by **theuns** » 07 May 2010, 21:49

looking good so far rjeff, I like it

Finis · Post by **Finis** » 07 May 2010, 21:58

Like it.

How about something to provide air to the lift motors? Some kind of ducts from the sides or top.

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 08 May 2010, 17:17

Ahh..they are lift motors, but they do not require any air intake, as they are powered by fuel!!

No problem then. They just looked like short jet engines to me.

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 11 May 2010, 02:05

Well a jet enigne is where I got my idea from. So in a sense you are right. Here is an update.

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 12 May 2010, 20:37

Ok here is another update. Added the engines, and took of those things on the wings. I think I am also gonna update the lifter engines to look more inline.

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 14 May 2010, 05:01

Ok here is another update. I redid the lift engines..still got some work to do on them, I also started adding detail to the ship itself.

theuns · Post by **theuns** » 14 May 2010, 10:08

love those window panes

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 17 May 2010, 05:16

Ok added the open "public" areas on the upper deck. I also added the port holes for the state rooms.

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 19 May 2010, 13:41

Ok I have added some hulll plating and a glow to the engines...I still need to work on that.

Finis · Post by **Finis** » 19 May 2010, 14:31

This is great RJeff! It should be in sci-fi movie.

The latest version has the 3 rear sets of "cones" removed. I liked the cones. They balance the big ones at the front, create a theme, the skylight or window on top of one set is cool, and the asymmetrical positioning along the ship's length adds interest. If you decide to put them back then I'd blend the rear ones into the wings/engines.

theuns · Post by **theuns** » 19 May 2010, 15:00

looking good rjeff

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 19 May 2010, 15:38

Finis..those cones are still there..Here is a new agnle for you to look at.

marcel · Post by **marcel** » 19 May 2010, 17:34

this topic begin to be interesting. The two cones at the front could be rescue capsules.

rjeff · Post by **rjeff** » 23 May 2010, 05:07

Ok gonna be done with this one. Now I just ned to get some more angles.
