I took the time to write up another wee lil article about how I design and create the panels on my Akira class variant for my Eager & Excited patrons.

I'm not big on tutorials, so I made a blender file with 10 stages of my Akira class modeling process available on my Patreon.

I also managed to merge the back of the primary hull into the saucer smoothly. It looked weird when I left it months ago. #akira #startrek #firstcontact #ilm #7ftakira #ilmheroakira #enterprise-e #sovereign #fanart #b3d #modeling #conceptart

I haven't looked at the #akira for some time. Yesterday I began tackling the transition of my idea of the deflector area into the saucer section. #llap #startrek #firstcontact #ilm #7ftakira #ilmheroakira #enterprise-e #sovereign #fanart #b3d #blender #modeling #wip

And #akira #timelapse no. 6 is about merging the engineering section with the bottom of the saucer. I'm on a roll today.

In my 5th #akira #timelapse I create the boolean cutouts for the saucer, refine the topology of the catamaran struts, and prepare for merging with the saucer section.

One of the biggest changes I am making in comparison to the original Akira class CGI model used in First Contact, is the primary hull deflector area. Here's the first concept. #akira #startrek #firstcontact #ilm #7ftakira #ilmheroakira #enterprise-e #sovereign #fanart #b3d #modeling #conceptart

Comparing my current state to the concept art makes me confident I can indeed pull this off. I'm gonna blend the details from the concept art into the details of the First Contact CG model, adapt them to my shape changes.

More progress on the Akira class. Overall I'm going for a slightly more streamlined look without sacrificing the features of the original design. www.patreon.com/posts/akira-...

My work on the Akira model continues. This time I refine the catamaran struts and add the first pass of the primary hull including the modified deflector area.

I notice how the original Akira model only has 2-3 phaser strips and no RCS thrusters.
Question is would ILM modelers have added Sovereign class or Galaxy class style thrusters, or designed new ones? #7ftakira #preparation #references #startrek #firstcontact #ilm
