Calling all Stargate Fans!

Excellent Sub-Light design
Can't wait to see the finished project

[Dr Lee]

Got a new version of an old design here for you today...





It's a small one man glider thing. It's not designed to be equiped with anything more than an air tank for the pilot and a small Naquadah generator for the engines, No plans for any kind of sheilding or anything like that.

I may include a pair of small rockets and/or a staff weapion-like plasma gun on the wingtips... not decided yet.

The pilot won't be as exposed as the first image shows, they will be clad in an amoured flightsuit i'm considering being reversed engineered from the Kull armour.

The position of the arms and hands are roughly where i'm going to put the flight controls... when i get around to building them that is, the harness isn't finished either... there will be a strap between the legs and a pair of straps holding the thighs to the machine....

I didn't make the man by the way, he was a free 'boned' mesh from a website, though i can't remember where from atm.

Well all I can say about the design is it looks good, except I'd suggest instead of a harness, some kind of "locking" mechanism that would connect from the armor at multiple points to the glider, or as I'm likening to say it, rocket pack.

Oh and after watching this thread for a while, I found on one of the very early pages a concept by s1gunman, called the achillies, I'm gonna try to model it, however I'm wondering if anyone else has some more of its concept art.

Well, it's been a while! But I'm back after a bit of a hiatus and I'm building ships again. I've got 2 on the go at the moment. One is called the Theseus and is based on a design by Choo1701, but I forgot to do any new renders for that and I'm going to bed now so I'll post some WIPs of it tomorrow.

The other is a revisit to my oldest and dearest friend, the Argo. I've recently discovered the joy of curves and I've been implementing them into my designs more, this is the first result. Some of you may remember the original Argo design, this isn't meant to be a better model as such, more a sequel or a later version built by the Tau'ri. So here's a few shots of the ship alone plus a couple of comparison shots of the old and new versions. C&C welcome as always!

Looking good, Jay!
I like the curves!

I like the design, the achilles and argos mix

[Dr Lee]

Curves are good... noting better than a few curves on a model.....

Been doing a bit of work on the Thor GunBoat (Did a bit of checking and it's not a GunSHIP but a GunBOAT).

Mostly it's the ship lighting, but i have started on an interior bridge design, though i haven't got a pic of that atm
