Polaris – Other Ship Concepts

Jason Lee — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 15:47:02 +0000

As promised, here is a collection of other ship designs for the Polaris project. These are still under review and subject to change, but they were still fun to do regardless of how or if they wind up being used.

United Worlds Ship Concepts

There are some common elements to these designs, all inspired [...]

I’m getting down to the nitty-gritty details on the Polaris concept sketches in preparation for the serious 3D modeling work:

Some concept sketches for additional ship designs will appear in the near future.

Starship Polaris – Going Three Dimensional

Jason Lee — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 01:25:41 +0000

When I originally signed on to Dennis Bailey’s Polaris project I was only going to help contribute some design ideas for the hero ship, but now it looks like I will be building a 3D model of it as well. I say a 3D model rather than the 3D model because I work in 3ds Max [...]

Starship Polaris – Round Four

So, after the latest round of coordination with Dennis, the “sails” have been restored to the design for the Polaris. I had a backup plan in case he decided to go that way and I have to say I’m glad he did. I liked the version without the sails but I like this even better.

Starship Polaris – Round Three

Looks like Dennis Bailey and his team are making good progress on set construction for the bridge of the Starship Polaris, as noted in his latest blog entry. In the mean time, I’m continuing to submit ideas for the look of the ship itself. Here is the latest sketch showing several new design elements:

Starship Polaris – New Concept Sketches

As part of the ongoing Starship Polaris project, I just completed another batch of concept sketches for various configurations and parts and pieces of the eponymously named hero ship. Here are three of the better ones:

Starship Polaris

Jason Lee — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 01:28:37 +0000

Back around 2005, a fellow I know named Dennis Bailey was working on a Star Trek fan film project called Starship Exeter: The Tressaurian Intersection. His experience on that project inspired him to start thinking about an independant film production of his own, one based on the beloved sci-fi adventure films and literature of his [...]
