USS Voyager NCC-74656:
Currently only 50% complete, this is a 1/2 scale recreation of the Star Trek USS Voyager Intrepid class of the Starfleet United Federation of Planets.
Ships current mass is 3486.6 units, making it a Battleship and I predict it will reach around 9k mass units by the time I am finished building it.
As of now, the ship has no armorments or docking ports . I do plan to make either a class 5 shuttlecraft or the Delta Flyer (I do not plan on adding the Aeroshuttle to the bottem of the saucer, as the the docking units do not support a vertical drop.).
This ship has about 2 weeks worth of work into it; I'm trying to make everything look smooth and accurate (yes I know the naccels are wrong, I may or may not fix them depending on effeciency needs.).
After this ship is done I plan on making an actuall 1:1 scale Voyager, so stay tuned peeps!
May 18th, 2013: Update!
Indeed, it has been a while, but I'm still not done yet! With all these new updates coming out so quickly, I want to make sure Voyager will have all the latest bells and whistles!
New Texture update! Awesome!
I needed more guns, so i went against Star Trek Ethics:
Yes, that is a turret on top.
Tested that small gun, not big enough. It's upgrade time:
I'm almost done arming her:
Stay tuned peeps!

Well then, I have armed both the Primary and Secondary Deflector dishes. The Primary Dish can be seen in action below. Something having to do with shooting beams through hull blocks is messing with the visual, but the beam is indeed origionating from the Deflector Dish.
The Secondary Deflector Dish is located on the topside of the saucer in the front. I have armed that dish with Power Supply and Drain Beams. As of now though, those beams are acting quiet buggy, so I will possibly upload pics of that in action after I resolve the issue.
Stay tuned peeps!

Although I do not like admiting it, I will not ignore the fact that Voyager is not as 'capable' as some or most other ships of the same mass most likely are when it comes to offense and defense. With that in mind, I have installed one Shuttlecraft / Escapecraft to be used should Voyager ever loose a skirmish out in space.
I do apologize for it's non-Trekkie-ness, but given the limited space the docking port allowed, and the limited ceiling clearance, I have decided that effectivness > vanity. This lil' bugger of a ship is quiet fast, and is although pathetically whimpy, does have weapons capabilities.
If anyone can design a more practical ship that could fit inside of a standard docking unit (not upgraded) that is NOT a Borg Cube, feel free to leave some pictures of it below. I may like your Shuttlecraft enough to copy the design and dock it in Voyager.
Stay tuned peeps!

She is almost done. Just a lil' bit of hull needs to be added to the right side. Here is the new texture pack in play.

I must be honest with you guys, building this ship was quiet tedious for me, but alas, IT IS COMPLETE!
Mass:9671.0
Thrust: 11200.3
Dimensions: 173 * 34 * 68
And the rest of the specs I'll just keep to myself...
Here she is..
Yummy
Ooo, that reminds me of this one ship....
That's the rearview if you couldn't tell.
Shuttle bay: only one ship :P
And Astrometrics-- I mean the Bridge.. Yup, the Bridge
Thank you to all those who have watched this post for the 5+ months wondering when I was going to finish this reletively small ship. My next project will not be 1:1 Voyager, as I hate making oval saucer sections. They are deathly to replicate on block format so I don't want to trouble myself.
I plan to do... Stuff... With this ship... Stuff...

Ok, so a lot of people have been coming to me, asking if I will make this public so that everyone can download this ship. Here is is how i responded to that:
"Sorry I do not plan to make this ship public to all users. I beleive it is just a little unfair to the minority of us who actually put lots of work and effort into building their own ships. I think if someone wants a ship so badly they must earn the right by actually finding me, and somehow manage to steal my craft. Personally, it would very much smite me to see my ship designs as part of the fleet of an enemy faction or in the grubby hands of some noob who knows nothing about this game except the flying around and shooting part. That just annoys me, sorry its not going to happen any time soon. Maybe if I build an even better ship after this one and get bored of this one I'll consider making it downloadble to everyone."
