|
| | | Hi all, As promised, here she is, the Trifecta: (URL) Trifecta is heavily influenced by Paul Hartzog's Triumvirae: (URL) sports three blaster cannons, three big mean wing-things, and some interesting SNOT construction.

| | | | | hey, I'm into the mad hingework on the inside of the crafts fuselage. shown in (URL) that 3 side method looks like it might work for a 5 sided craft. I'm totally going to play with that Idea on a futrue spacecraft. taking a look at it from this (...) (22 years ago, 4-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | | Thanks Travis. The hingework was from Paul's ship, and with a bit of creative changing, could be used for a 5-sided ship. Have at it. -Chris (...) (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | As promised! Very intersting configuration...I can imagine it would be challenging to get all the tabs and slots to match up. A great design tho'...looks so modifiable to fit different roles. Cheers, -G (...) (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

One direction and one direction only is no problem, but when you get SNOT going on each side, it's interesting. I found that the 1x2/1x4 plate hinge and 1x2 (...)

| | | | | (...) The Trifecta reminds me of the TIE Defender from the X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter game series. Very cool looking. -Mike Petrucelli (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

| | | | | | (...) Thanks Mike - I never did think about the similariy between the TIE-D and the Trifecta, but it's pretty close. Maybe it was a subconscious thing. :-) -Chris (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

The entire ship was built upon the white curve-slopes configuration. That's the only color I had (...) (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)
