Bonaparte Posted November 12, 2006 Looking very good Lord Admiral. The front of the ship would require some modification I think. Also the black in the mid sections should maybe go a bit up and around the entire ship. E.g.: -----______----- Or maybe not :-). You probably simulated this already to see the results. Do you plan to build this beauty in the future? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted November 12, 2006 I don't get the Star Trek reference! Someone explain (with picture preferably) what the Lady Washington was in Star Trek. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oo7 Posted November 12, 2006 In the beggining of Star Trek Generations the senior officers of the USS Enterprise-D (the futuristic ship) are entertaining themselves in the holodeck (a room in which interactive holographic images are projected) with a program in which they are portraying the crew of the original USS Enterprise (the historical sailing ship). Lady Washington is simply the real name of the ship filmed in the movie portraying the USS Enterprise, as the real original USS Enterprise no longer exsists. This ship has also been filmed as The Interceptor in POTC. Nice one Admiral espically for me, a Lego pirate and Star Trek fan. I agree with what Lord Bonaparte said and I am looking forward to seeing the designs of further progression. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted November 13, 2006 Ah yes Mr Oo7, I think I know what the reference is now - I did see that movie... Ummm... Ummm... Many moons ago... Enough moons to forget what happened in it... As for Admiral Starwind's MLcad design... The black bricks around the stern are built too high, he should remove the top layer and replace them with yellow plates (or SNOTs) because I think that make it look more like the actual Lady Washington. I have more feedback, however I shall wait for Admiral Starwind to respond on what I've written first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Admiral Starwind Posted November 13, 2006 Nope not removing the top layer and the reason for that is that i haven't put the last layer of plates on the top for the yellow trim. just haven't got around to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norro Posted November 13, 2006 Looking very good, but I am never partial to attaching masts to the front of a lower mast (not that I have a better solution X-D ). God Bless, Nathan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted November 13, 2006 Nope not removing the top layer and the reason for that is that i haven't put the last layer of plates on the top for the yellow trim. just haven't got around to it. But leaving the top layer would make it too high, wouldn't it? I'm just going by the picture, but I suppose it depends how closely you want to match that.

Scouty Posted November 18, 2006 Neat ship Admiral Starwind! I esp. like the top mast design of the two small masts. I also find the curve in the front of the ship interesting, I don't think many have don this? So, two questions 1. Are you using the wide or skinny hulls, I cannot tell. 2. Who are you going to make this beutiful ship to? The Imperial Soldiers...or the Imperial Guards...or merchants? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bonaparte Posted November 18, 2006 Ah yes Mr Oo7, I think I know what the reference is now - I did see that movie... Ummm... Ummm... Many moons ago... Enough moons to forget what happened in it... Shame on you Mr. Phes. Forgetting such a good Star Trek movie (loved the scene were the Enterprise crashed on a planet). I didn't realise immediatly that this was the ship from that movie. Also the Star Trek crew had great uniforms during the scenes on the ship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Roger Posted November 18, 2006 good sip man...li'd like seeing lot of your ships in photos and not only in drawings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted November 18, 2006 Lady Washington aka USS Enterprise(from Star Trek Generations)This is the progress on her so far and i should have it completed soon as i fill in all the insides of the ship. When can we be expecting the completion? Shame on you Mr. Phes. Forgetting such a good Star Trek movie (loved the scene were the Enterprise crashed on a planet). Such a good movie? Are we talking about the same movie that wasted Captain Kirk's life? His demise could have been so much more but no. This is best left for another forum however. I didn't realise immediatly that this was the ship from that movie. See, you're as bad as me X-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norrington Posted November 19, 2006 i seem to notice in your drawings that the hull is white on top of brown, wich i dont belive exsists......are you thinking about modding it with say....electrical tape or painting it? or are you going to improvise. i'd say take a armada flag ship hull and put white lectral tape on the blue parts, wicch i think will look good.

Scouty Posted November 19, 2006 Nope, you can actually take the top off of the hull and mix and match. I believe, somewhere, there was some thread mentioned about this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norrington Posted November 19, 2006 i know, but there is no white top part for a hull, so you might just yous and armad flagship hull and put white tape over the blue to gat an all white hull... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Admiral Starwind Posted November 20, 2006 If i were to make her in real life id take the top layer off spray paint her very lightly and then re attach. More pictures probably today i just have been preoccupied. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scouty Posted November 21, 2006 So many errors in your post Norrington :-/ . Anyhoo, oh. I guess I forgot that there wasn't a white top, ah well. Electrical tape will work, and looks pretty good. I'm not tooo fond of painting hull pieces due to their rareity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Phes Posted November 21, 2006 The Lady Washing is really going to be constructed is it? If not then it can be any colours Admiral Starwind wishes. For example: So my question to Admiral Starwind is: Why haven't you made the hull white? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
