DS9 resurrected

[ThunderChild]

So thanks to D-whale's reminders I have resurrected a project that started years ago.


I have finally finished creating the internal support structure. Getting various parts to interlock was a fun puzzle!

I'll be starting (er... restarting) the test build soon. Watch this space!

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

I am glad to see that you are picking this project up again!!!
I will be watching this thread closely!!!

 

[Revell-Fan]

I'm looking forward to seeing MOOORE!

is this in 1/1700 scale??

 

[zathros]

This will be interesting!

 

[ThunderChild]

is this in 1/1700 scale??

That's the general goal yes. Size controversy was a head-scratcher. I decided to go with a station that is 1,451.82 meters wide. The model should be 85.40cm wide when done.

Small update, I only have the Upper and Lower Pylons left to unfold. The road ahead is daunting...

Wow, looking forward to how this unfolds The 3d model looks neat.

 

[Revell-Fan]

Absolutely ingenious!

 

[vipers7]

Great! A real worthy project !!!

 

[zathros]

Pretty awesome framework there!

 

[THE DC]

Ambitious project!

Where are you getting the artwork from?

 

[ThunderChild]

Thanks for the support guys!
DC, I did everything from scratch, mesh and textures.

 

[zathros]

I thought you were. I've never seen anything like that for DS-9.

 

[coffeeramblings]

Looks interesting!

ohhh I already love it and cannot wait to see it built. my question though is if this will be to scale with that "tough little ship"?
