Star Trek - USS Nautilus Work in progress

This is a model I created just for fun, and decided to play around with it and test my skills on some visual effects. Then I decided to toss in some enemy ships to liven things up (not created by me -- see below). I have plans to make this longer, but it's still an early-stage work-in-progress.

Starship U.S.S. Nautlius NCC-31910
Miranda class (late 24th century)

Seen in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Tears of the Prophets"

Created with Maya and After Effects.

Jem'Hadar Attack Ship created by Nine of Nine,
obtained from bridgecommander.filefront.com.

:) pure awesomeness, but tell me, isn't the flyby sound effect of the Jem'Hadar bugs a bit Cylon? ;)

@topasyout

Hah! I suppose it is, at that. But then I looked through a bunch of ST episodes trying to isolate a JH ship's sound; the sound design in any given episode is so damn dense, it's nearly impossible to tell what a bugship actually sounds like.

That's incredible, the details are amazing.!

[andrictheman]

@ygvb1 Thanks!!

Nice 3d work! The tracking is a little off on the star in the background. I'm not sure how it works in Maya but in Cinema 4d you can export the scene into AE and it will have the lights in the project file so you don't have to worry about tracking.

[andrictheman]

@sporefrog Yeah I know what you mean. Supposedly there's a way to do the same thing with Maya but I haven't gotten around to working that out just yet. Thanks for the comment!

Well, thats going to get blown up soon enough..nice work though!

[PaulGrantDesigns]

great lighting and attention to smooth detail

[timeofthelamb]

if you created an enterior than it would be epix

Reliant Class is just a variant -on- the Miranda class anyways. But for it to be around at that time it would have had to be refit at least once anyways.

Anwho, nice job on the CG, its really well done.

[rschaarman]

Looks like a reliant class

[arromac]

...Must be a Miranda Class, no Reliant Class cruiser was ever named Nautilus. Yep, hull numbers confirm...
