Having started this one back in 2011 (take a look back at Part 1), I’ve taken advantage of the increase in spare time that 2020 has so graciously given me to get all the materials and maps on my Constellation-class starship sorted out. I’m calling her finished now… but you never know! There’s still some […]
Historical Naval Architecture & Future Work
As you may be able to tell from some of my project choices, I have a significant interest in naval history. Specifically, developments in the field of naval architecture from the mid-18th century through to the Second World War. My King George V class project, initially started way back in 2004, is an interesting subject […]
Supermarine Walrus Mk.I – Part 2
Modelling work on the Supermarine Walrus Mk.I is now complete! This took a lot longer than intended – as ever, real life gets in the way. I have gone into far more detail than is necessary for this, but I figured that if I was going to make this thing, I may as well do […]
HMS Agamemnon (1781)
I originally said I wouldn’t be reposting old work on here, as it’s all still there on my legacy site. Since Google has started heavily penalizing websites that don’t follow the latest design trends (even if it’s just a part of it), I have decided that it’s time to shutter the old site. Having looked […]
Supermarine Walrus Mk.I – Part 1
They’re most famous for the Spitfire, but Supermarine mostly made flying boats. The Supermarine Walrus was an amphibious reconnaissance aircraft, carried aboard Royal Navy capital ships and cruisers during the Second World War. Many were also operated directly by the Royal Air Force. The Royal Australian Air Force and the Argentine Navy had examples in […]
HMS King George V – Part 1
I started working on this model of the British battleship HMS King George V way back in 2004. To be fair, I considered it finished, excluding textures, sometime in 2006. However, I never quite did get around to making those textures! A mere nine years later, in October 2015, I decided to try and finish it. […]
Constellation-class (USS Stargazer) – Part 1
I’ve always had a bit of a soft-spot for this slightly ungainly kitbash design. It comes from an early Star Trek: TNG episode, representing Picard’s former command, the USS Stargazer. It seems like a long time ago that I started this one. Well, it was – back in 2011, in fact! I tend to work […]
McLaren-Ford MP4/8
The MP4/8 was McLaren’s entry to the 1993 Formula One World Championship. Honda had pulled out of F1 at the end of the ’92 season. McLaren then had to use the unsatisfactory Ford and Peugeot engines for a couple of years, until they began their very long partnership with Mercedes. This is a repost of […]
Cheyenne-class (USS Naiad)
Just a quick project I worked on in 2009. The Cheyenne-class was one of several kitbashed models that appeared very briefly on screen in the TNG episode ‘Best of Both Worlds’, in the Wolf 359 graveyard scene. I decided to flesh the design out properly. This included some slight reworking of areas that I didn’t […]
Cardassian Galor & Keldon class ships
So when I said I wasn’t going to be reposting old stuff, that wasn’t entirely accurate. For whatever reason, there are some things that I never got around to posting to my old site. I am going to drop a few of them in here – starting with the Cardassian Galor class ship, and its […]
