So me and my friends are attempting to create our own Star Trek series, Since I’m the only one who uses Blender it’s up to me to build up the ship designs in CG form both interior and Exterior, The Hero Ship is going to be a Franklin-Type Starship that has been in service for over 50 years before it was retired in the mid 2250s and later stolen by a wayward crew of Temporally Displaced Humans, Outcasts and Misfits, What I need is Your input on how to go about making it look like the ship was refitted to the point that it is virtually a new ship while retaining the same basic layout as the Franklin.
One of the Other Things I want to do is actually emulate the Production Styles used in Star Trek TOS such as the camera lenses and angles, Flyby Shots and lighting Schemes (Basically with the thinking of “Could they have done this with the 11 foot model” in TOS) I’m putting this post out there so That I can get a little more input on how to go about doing this.
