It's basically Trek - but it definitely has it's own look and style to it

It originally was inspired heavily by the Amargosa Station (which is a lot smaller) but expanded to be a viable habitable station, not just 3 rooms and a whole lot of sensors hehe.

Yeah it has occurred to me to do an alternate 'top' to the station, with just a dish array or something. Might look kind of cool!

But yes the upper saucer is going to be one heck of a mother to model, the panelling alone will probably make me go insane

It would be interesting to know the poly count of the whole thing at this point, but I understand if that isn't possible.

Looks utterly fantastic though! Keep up the great work!

Wow, tobian. Simply wow. You know, most people who start on a project this large and detailed (me especially) usually just give up, or start other projects and get sidetracked. But you -- you keep chugging along, and making a really top-notch, above movie-quality mesh, and working alone, at that. I've got to say Bravo, man. Bravo.

Cheers,
Nick

Haha it's high and getting higher!

But yes, not sure overall, as several bits of the model are in flux, and there's quite a lot of redundant layers liberally scattered round many models

Cheers guys, and I have no idea what keeps me going on this, but I do

Minor update, with small changes, and some improved AA and AS for the grain

Not much exciting changed, but the insides are shaping up... not that you can see much
