@@TeabridgeX When I posted the earlier work-in-progress versions a few people commented about the lack of audio, and I thought "You mean you don't just hear the Wrath of Khan score in your head like I do?" So that's why this one has the warning about it being silent, although I am going to try to add audio at some point.
In real space this is how it would be. No sound. So interesting how Star Trek would really be if they followed true space for exterior scenes. A well done good job.
Saucer+Plane is such a great configuration, and it's a shame that the Shepard has only been used as a throwaway in the Discovery pilot. I wish they'd give us one in SNW. I am planning on playing around with the NX-refit, and maybe I'll try to kitbash an NX-Shepard too.
@ Since the story is basically "Starfleet: Bear Patrol", I didn't want to give such a boring job to Sulu's Excelsior. But I did want it to be an early ship in the class, with a name that was on the "Excelsior" theme. Somehow I got to "Surprise", and obviously there wasn't going to be anything better than that. NCC-1805 wouldn't make sense an Excelsior class, but I think NCC-1805-A works.
Beautifully done. Just wish you had sound effects. Actually.. dose..look like a collection of Jamaican giant spliffs..from very limited descriptions I've been given. Wundering where they got so many from. Now what do you do with them.?😊❤
@@scottbraun2457 It started as me just goofing around in blender, but I think it turned out well enough that I am definitely planning to go back and add sound.
@chris-s4170 awesome.! Too bad we never did get an origin story for the nasty beast. Then again. We never got one for the borg either. Also..no sound is technically accurate because of no sound in outer space..but...how many sci-fi shows fallow that rule really. Again awesome show..however..it's "easily" fixed..with an observer's prospective and "radio chatter".. from fleet commanders and shipAIs cowardinating maneuvers. Hopefully I haven't overstepped. Looking forward to the continued adventures of headless spacefish hunters..(it's what it looks like to little me watching it when it first was on TV 30 or 40 years ago).
Okay, so the drive section flies the doomsday machine away, like a kidnapping, ( letting the Ambassador escape the tractor beam? ), then doomsday machine ends up in doomsday machine collection yard? And some inhibitor-tech is on it, where each machine cannot run off and cause trouble? How is the Akira in pieces, able to still function?
Initially, when the Gagarin turns around and heads back with the reinforcements I was going to have it just dump the dead Akira in space. But that felt a bit harsh. So I gave the Akira some power (the catamaran has two sides, so maybe it has two cores?), and let it limp away on its own. I'm not sure that any of this really makes sense, but it felt like a better choice.
I like the video, but where's the sound for the video? Also, the conclusion of the video would not have worked for many reasons, namely the Doomsday Machine is way, WAY, to big, and it has it own propulsion system, so it would eventually be able to leave the containment zone.
The original episode is pretty light on details and has a lot of speculation. So my theory presupposes that it just gets lonely, but that when you put a bunch of them together they're fairly well-behaved (at least until they're not...) And sound is coming, once I figure that out.
@@deadlynytshayd2220 I think itt's just a matter of rerouting the primary power feed through the odn relays to create a static graviton field bypassed to the starboard power coupling.
rerouting the primary power feed through the ODN (Optical Data Network) relays wouldn't typically generate a static graviton field, as ODN relays are primarily responsible for data transmission rather than power distribution.
I like the gimmick, but the DD machine, but it's "miles long." Starfleet of that era isn't shown to have anything that can generate a warp field for something that size. At that time, the nacelles appear to take of about a third of the space/volume of the material they're warping. Still, it's a great gimmick. Would've been great to see an episode where an annoying bellicose ship is involuntarily removed from a would-be battle space like a hissing cat. Would've been a great humiliation for a Klingon crew.
My only defense is that the nacelles are a scaled-up version of the warpsled part of the Oberth, which is designed for carrying the long sausage/sensor/cargopod underneath. That's obviously a completely different scale from the Doomsday Machine, but the engineers must have teched the tech?
Mostly because I felt like doing both a TOS Shepard, and also a refit into a TMP Gagarin. And I wanted something with blue phasers. But I also figure that it's a big fleet. We see Mirandas, Oberths and Excelsiors into the DS9-era. A late-TOS spaceframe might still be around into the Excelsior-era. The US Navy's oldest active ship is from the 60s.
Great animation work and a very interesting take on how to stop an "unbeatable" opponent.
I can practically hear the original soundtrack going (which sounds like Jaws BTW) in the background! Nice work!

lol I love this. I’m not sure if it’s meant to be a bit of a comedy but for me it totally worked.
@@奶路牛 Glad it worked for you. I threw the jokey stuff in at the end so that people would hopefully know that it's not completely serious.

A well done good job.
Nice work!! The silent video is interesting, keep up the great work!
Very nice work!
Ooo the TOS and TMP takes on the Shepard class are really good-looking. Wonder how it'd look in an Enterprise-era aesthetic, it's a good design.
Saucer+Plane is such a great configuration, and it's a shame that the Shepard has only been used as a throwaway in the Discovery pilot. I wish they'd give us one in SNW.

Daaaaang! This is good. Though I shudder at a universe where there are several Doomsday Machines.
And starfleet is putting them all together in one place, which probably seems like a good short-term solution. But starfleet aren't always right.
@@chris-s4170 I'd warp them into the star of some remote solar system devoid of all organic life. If the star goes nova, no harm done. 🙂
Nice work!
Excellent! Keep up the good work! :)
Love the "USS Surprise" :D

here come the Doomsday War.
Yeah, putting them all together in one place is perhaps not the best idea.
Okay, so the drive section flies the doomsday machine away, like a kidnapping, ( letting the Ambassador escape the tractor beam? ),

Now there's a hobby. Collecting Rolled up Space Weeds. 😛
I was honestly worried that a few of these shots looked a bit too much like little swimmers, so space weeds works.
@@chris-s4170 They're already lit, waiting for Galactus to come along and smoke them. 😆

Easier to just strap a breeched warp core onto a transphasic torpedo.

Nothing will stick to pure duranium.

why is there a tos era ship

must be a sulu or a Paris at the helm
Some of those pilots are definitely more daring than the others.
tmp is the best
