PM me. What you can do in AutoCAD is use the SCALE command to bring everything to fit in an 8-1/2 x 11 space and then use the JPGOUT command to do this. Or you could do this in paper space. Or keep everything at a 1:1 ratio and just output the drawings to a PDF set at 8-1/2 x 11. Oh and Im using AutoCAD 2008 so I should be able to read just about anything.KirkTrekModeler said:

Your team is doing great work keep it up
Thanks Bernard, I'll pass on the sentiments to everyone involved. :thumbsup:
If anyone here can take the .DWG files and output them to a standard sized sheet and output them to a readable.jpg file, I'll gladly send them to you for uploading to this thread.
The drawings kick ass. Id love to get a hold of em. Especially to print out the aztek pattern onto either frisket or shelf paper to use as a painting mask for the physical Polar lights model

Just a Hello
Hi, this is OylPslyk.
Just wanted to make an appearance and say hello!
also about an earlier post - Most of the designs by me were actually drawn in DeltaCad, which is actually a .dc format, but I also use PowerCad and AutoCad.
I also hadn't yet seen some of those 3d images of the 2ndry hull yet all put together, looks great!
While the file all those images are based upon is very recend, we have been making many changes of late, and once more completed drawings are availabe, I can provide pdf's for the thread rather than jpegs, so you can all get a closer look.
Anyway, I'm glad to see we are recieving such a warm welcome! we have been puting an enourmous amount of effort into this! I look forward to your future comments and suggestions!
thanks again, Oyl.

Re: Just a Hello
OK, here's some of the more recent stuff along with some of Oyl Pslyk's early work.
This is what Oyl was working on when we met on another forum.
These are enlarged versions of a recent file from Oyl.
Below is some recent work from Mr. Anonymous1.
More to come.

Re: Just a Hello
OK, here's the last of it today. Note: I'll start a build-up thread on the BIG Refit when I get a little farther along.

Yeah, "They" have done a hell of a job. I just helped with info and stuff, little sharing of the wealth kind of thing.

Re: Just a Hello
Honestly, once you have one, you have the other, there are just some variations, but yeah, I guess so.

Re: Just a Hello
Impressive!
I like how you show the saucer without the rest of the ship. This is something I wish tech-artists/mechanical drawing specialists would do with other starship schematics as well. I'd love to see highly detailed drawings of the TOS 1701 in separated mode, as well as with the saucer's landing gear extended. It would also be cool to see this for the Enterprise-B, -C, -D and -E, but I doubt anyone will ever bother. Looks like an awful lot of hard work!
Will you be doing deck plans to go with these external images?

I can't speak for the whole group, but I know that several of the ideas you speak of are in the works. Stay Tuned. :thumbsup:

Whole views
When I am designing I always pull the ship apart into pieces... I do this in order to get a whole view of all the parts from all the angles, Primarily because my way of getting into all this was modelmaking, first r/c, and now card-models.
Also, Yes - I do have all the other enterprises in the works. although none are as yet as detailed as the Refit.
there will also be an A version, and it probably have been easier to work the A up first, since all the best reference material is now the A ship..........lol!!!
you can see some of the other ships and cardmodels (only the NX model is currently available) at my thread at cardmodels.net called "All the Enterprises"

I love '08. To be honest though Im using 08LT but am upgrading to full blow AutoCAD 08 as soon as AutoDesk runs an upgrade promotion. Oh and yes, I basically bought a new laptop to run it. Sorry for dragging this offtopic.Bernard Guignard said:
