And here's how I determined the actual shape 15+ years ago. Thankfully it's just a bunch of circles and vertical lines, which makes it easier to match the perspective of photos and screenshots in a 3d tool. #lw3d #lightwave #spacedock #startrek #3d #modeling #accuracy #tsfs #tuc #tng #ilm
The old version uses an army of super low poly shuttles to decorate the hangars. #lw3d #lightwave3d #startrek #3d #tsfs #tuc #tng #3d #modeling
How I determined the scale of the #spacedock interior back then. The scale of the Enterprise and the door was the entry point, and from that on I used photo projection to find the scale of all the little shuttle bays and hangars. #lw3d #lightwave3d #startrek #3d #tsfs #tuc #tng #modeling

Beginning to remodel the center column. Dug up the old file where I used projection mapping to make sure all the details are placed correctly. #lw3d #b3d #startrek #spacedock #3dmodeling

Every now and then I find time to work on the Spacedock interior model I made 10+ years ago. Reworking it entirely for better geometry and textures. #lw3d #b3d #startrek #spacedock #3dmodeling
