Federation Commander

Gorn Battlecruiser in scaled version. The scale pattern is repeated on the bottom.



Another shot of the regular Gorn Battlecruiser, smoothed and grooved to match the classic miniatures.

Kzinti Battlecruiser

Moving on to the Kzinti capital ships, the Kzinti Battlecruiser borrows a few design points from the dreadnought mini, such as the rear wings and the larger engines compared to the older miniatures.

Juggernaut Destroyer

And baby makes three. The SSD shows no horns and no tail, so the DD is a much more compact outline than the larger ships.




CA and DD in FUD for comparison: https://i.imgur.com/wUM7YqV.jpg

Juggernaut Missile Dreadnought

After drawing and rejecting half a dozen different designs for this, I decided just to go for clean and sleek. The phaser layout is taken from the original 8.5" resin mini.

I made a few attempts to panel the entire ship, with one ...

I had originally tried building up some fancy superstructures for underneath, but stripped it down to the basics after deciding to go back to smooth on the top.

Juggernaut Heavy Cruiser

Mid-Sized extra-Galactic threat, flipped over to display chin-mounted phaser-4.

Tholian PC pinwheel

https://i.imgur.com/CUBsVf4.jpg

All of the pinwheel models are made from combining three regular models with a custom three-prong stand topper and printing them out as one piece. This format allows for customized pinwheels, either by removing and replacing a ship on a one ...

Tholian Battleship

All of the Tholian bits and pieces were leading up to this thing. This version shows the fully refitted battleship without the Spiders and Arachnids found on the Stellar Domination version of the ship. (I believe an updated SSD will be in an ...

Kzinti Scout Frigate

I've spent decades staring at the nice neat row of sensor boxes on the SSD.

I guess I never really considered what they actually looked like on the ship until now...

The initials of the artist/sculptor are added to the filename so we can keep track of who did what. "WEM" means it's one of Will McCammon's models.

Tholian War Cruiser

This ship went through some significant design changes going from SL2400 to Shapeways. The metal miniature was significantly too small, so it was stretched from 120 meters to 148 meters. This stretching also opened up some space on the forward set of fins for another pair of ...

Tholian Pocket Battleship

Basically a CW made from with two Destroyer hull, plus extra phasers and disruptors. And fighters. And PFs.

Tholian Web Tender

This ship went through half a dozen designs through forum suggestions, swapping my original Tesla coils on the roof for something slightly more web generator-ish on the sides (and another half-dozen tries before Shapeways agreed to pint them).

Years ago I started on a story that ...

Warpage was one thing I was worried about when we got to the larger conglomerations like the battleship. I've made a few fanciful designs that have all printed straight - and stayed that way.

Kzinti booms were another concern, but so far they look good.
