I animated a sequence with my new TOS Enterprise model I feel shows off the scale of the ship nicely. youtu.be/Vnqu9henmEs?si=w9Eg… #StarTrek #Blender #CGI #Render #StarTrekTOS #Space #Art

Hey @BirdWatchIE I would like to report a very insistent corncrake at Roonagh point in Mayo, calling through the night. Just on the left 3 fields before the pier as you approach.

Made a couple of animations with my Star Trek Phase II Enterprise while fiddling with materials in Blender. #StarTrek #StarTrekPhaseII #StarTrekPhase2 #PhaseII #Phase2 #Blender #Animation #Creativity #3D #Render

While playing with material settings to perfect the look of the ship (see my Imgur log imgur.com/a/enterprise...) I came up with a new inexpensive technique for making nebula clouds, which then informed the shield effect. Not happy with the behaviour of the shields yet though.

The view from the bridge (made with a screengrab of the Phase II bridge explorable on Roddenberry.x.io) is just on a card in front of the camera with a hole cut out for the viewer, and I messed with the material settings to make the change to red.

The camera shake is a noise modifier on the camera's X and Z coordinates allowed to affect it gradually and fade out over a constrained number of frames. Funny thing is there's no sound on this render, but I hear the rumble of the ship shaking every time it loops.

Base colour done… some of the larger rendering… now going back in and detailing further before I colour grade the final.

Reality is catching up with fiction. Today's Starship 7 launch felt like a scene straight out of Gravity.

You just got quote tweeted from space, Joe!
This. Joe is spot on. What a time to be alive . . . the freely available resources online to learn and explore in your free time are amazing. In some of my downtime every week on Earth I keep learning in areas like CAD, programming, imagery, and circuits.

This is an EXCELLENT explainer for what parts of the booster catch yesterday were hard, and which were surprisingly easy. Still an incredible, unbelievable achievement - and if you want to know more, watch Ryan's video.
If you haven't already, be sure to check out my new video about how SpaceX will catch the Super Heavy booster! Flight 5 is right around the corner! youtu.be/ub6HdADut50

PSA for Trekkies of all stripes: Prodigy is great. Season 2 was some of the most imaginative, adventurous, heartfelt and compelling Star Trek in the whole franchise. If you haven't watched it, do. (slightly rocky start on both seasons, FYI - push through the first hour or so)

After troubleshooting communications, flight controllers have confirmed Odysseus is upright and starting to send data. Right now, we are working to downlink the first images from the lunar surface.
