Human Sci-fi design for a bright future.
(Mark Rademaker)
Tiny departure schedule for the dock.
(Basically the daily commuting runabout (Pleiades) and some weekly supply/cargo/material shipments by Starfleet.)
Still all work in progress but slowly creeping towards a completed dock.

Inspection of Venetia Starlight.
(Modeled in 2008 but recent renders.)
A star yacht with forward nacelles. Some ships in this class are outfitted with roll out solar sails for a calm (but slow) journey.

A still from "765874 - Memory Wall" by the Roddenberry Archive. (I only delivered the ringship model, they do this magic!) 🙂 youtu.be/fzeznWVQu5o

My design for an RC Crawler back in 2009 vs a DARPA concept vehicle in 2022. :) Convergent evolution. (Or so I hope. :D)

I keep chipping away at a new (friendlier and smaller) habitat for the shipyard. Made some new doors today.

In an alternate timeline:
Shuttle IXL Galileo is (very) near and ready to dock after collecting some atmospheric samples from Proxima B.

A Borg cube I did in 2005. Maybe it was a cube still under construction.

Bussard diagnostics on a New Atlantic class runabout. (Somebody needs to do it!) :)

A Vesta class flyby test animation made a few years ago, during the conversion for Picard. I'm not an animator, I primarily do design and modeling and then I run out of will power. 😀 This exact mesh/model is 16 years old. (Finished January 2009.)

Thanks to last week's Strange New Worlds I got to spend 2,500 words diving into the history and mystery behind my all time favourite USS Enterprise (with a bit of help from @yard2380.bsky.social): www.denofgeek.com/tv/strange-n...
Strange New Worlds' XCV-100 Is a Missing Link in Star Trek History
A "blink and you'll miss it" moment from “The Sehlat Who Ate Its Tail” reveals a ship that locks in the Star Trek spacefaring canon.

HSY workbee prototype for 90% completed. Waiting for some final small bits, texture and decals.

Classic ship from a while back. :)

I will be back soon. Meanwhile:

In other non starship news: I finished building my new bicycle. Electronic gearbox but no motor, so I still have to do all the cycling, but that is how I like it. 😀 I designed a small feedtray so that I can snack while I cycle, making it a zero sum game. 🙂🍫 🍪

Slightly Frutiger Logo, for a couple of months. :)
In other news, after exactly one year (!) I opened my Construction Dock scene again, did a tiny bit of work, but not yet enough to share. The dock will function as a background & environment for all my future "in progress" work.

Is he still alive? Yes he is! :) Here are some very old renders from around 2005. This was an experimental (and as ususal unfinished) ship that would use a spacefolding experimental engine as well as traditional warp.

Still working on un-postable stuff, so one from the archive. (IXS Enterprise). A much larger, slightly further in the future version is on the table. (Although with my current projects and speed it might be 2050 before I start on it...doh!)

Posting Neglect! :D

Slightly obsessed with my current project that is not really Sci-fi but also it is. Have to post some older stuff in the meantime...

(USS Pelican, atmospheric intakes on the pylon, WIP.)
*Also a Pelican't.
