The end caps and impulse engines look great.

Thank you, Chris!  I really appreciate that.

I know I'm jumping the gun, but I started work on the neck lights.

I really wanted to see what a couple of renders from similar camera angles found in Where No Man Has Gone Before.

Fantastic Eric, really need a like button.

I think, from now on, when I like a post, I'm just going to post this image:

Aw!  Thank you, Dean!

Well, that is a great image!  LOL!  "Put him RIGHT under the table!"

Slight, but definite progress.  I hope to cut saucer windows tomorrow.  These are (of course) just tools positioned to be the Booleans for the windows.

Looking Good!

Looking Good!

I concur.

[scifieric]

Thank you, Gentlemen.  You are very kind.

This is beyond beautiful!

If I might make a small suggestion... see if you can borrow Tallguy's energy barrier. That is the one I've used with my models.

Good suggestion.  I'm fairly certain that Bill would share.  He's a very good guy, just like you!

And thank you for the VERY kind words!  Your encouragement means a lot to me!

Some windows and lights.  I will probably be making some changes.  I have to research brightness and color for the lights.

Now working on the engineering hull.

All done in Blender 3D, of course.

The different Filmic render settings drive me nuts.  That you can take the same model and the same lighting and turn out completely different-looking images amazes me.  I also am flabbergasted that there is no allowance for Filmic Color Management in the new version of Blender.  Nutty.

All done in Blender 3D, of course.  The last image shows how that side shot was set up.

It's looking great, Eric.

What? You mean you didn't switch back to Truespace just for shiggles?
