Hello:
These are renders of the Asgard construction ship for my Stargate AU. This design was created by AtolmAzel:

This is another ship that got a second lease in life thanks to the success of "project Unendings". The Svadilfari class construction ship is a giant ship as big as refit Beliskner class mothership that is now seen roaming again in the Milky Way/Avalon galaxy, so it measures 1400 meters in length. This is another ship that was originally developed alongside the Beliskner and Chariot classes and it is tasked with the construction and maintenance of Asgard space infrastructures, like starbases, research outposts and shipyards.

The design has not been altered except for just upgrading systems, afterall there is no need to fix something that isn't broken.

Hello:

If you were to lose a little bit of the lower tall it would make a good troop transport. Just look at the size of that door/ramp.

Oh, I didn't notive that. Not a bad idea!
Now the Asgard cannot do boarding or assaulting themselves, but who knows what technologies would have for those purposes.

Hello:
These are renders of an Ori cruiser for my Stargate AU. This design was inspired by a ship created by AtolmAzel:

Build in Phoenix Dwarf Galaxy, the home of the Ori, the Praeventor (Vanguard) class cruiser is a new class of starship from what we can call the post-Crusade era. Designed in Ver Isca, the world that serves as the Ori primary shipyards, it takes all the lessons learned from the Semita Vera class heavy cruiser to create a smaller and less-menacing starship but with the same capabilities to make independent missions away from the fleet.

During the Crusade, the main ship of the line was the powerful Battlement class, that acted as a mothership for many fighter squadrons and platoons of soldiers as well as a battleship of tremendous firepower, and then it was the Semita Vera class that acted as it's primary escort ship with superior firepower than most ships the Milky-Way/Avalon could produce and that helped with power projection (mostly to clean-up any resistance in space and on planets). But those ships were used to convert Avalon into Origin by force, crushing every opposition, and that is not what the post-Crusade Ori want since they regret all the manipulation they were subject to.

The Praeventor class is now one of the primary ships used by the Ori, at 490 meters lenght the ship has powerful shields that can shrug-off most fighters, a main cannon and 10 defensive turrets that can target both fighters as well as larger capital ships. As mentioned before it is more than capable of going in solo missions, but it is always in range of an Armiger class carrier as both ships work very well together and complement each other by design.

- Edit: I've decided to give a little more detail to the dorsal area of the inner hull. Not the most noticeable change but I think it gives this cruiser a nicer feel.

Awesome stuff Chile Very futuristic design, truly feels like a next gen Ori ship.

 

[Chiletrek]

Hello:

Awesome stuff Chile Very futuristic design, truly feels like a next gen Ori ship.

Thank you very much! .
I almost made it smaller than the Semita Vera class mostly because the Ori are no longer conquering dozens of planets at once, so there is no longer the need to carry that many soldiers. So this ship is like an spiritual successor.

 

[Hath]

Ooooo!!!!!! I like this one Chile! The flowing lines are great. Really like the side profile.

Hello:
These are renders of the Ori mining freighter/resource collector for my Stargate AU. This design was created by AtolmAzel:

Build in Phoenix Dwarf Galaxy, the Fossores class is the main resource collector ship of the Ori, build in large numbers it is tasked with mining valuable ores from mainly asteroids, asteroid belts and Oort Clouds of a star system. The Fossores class is as small as the Corbita class cargo ship that transport the refined ores gathered by these ships. The ship requieres a small crew to operate so it also comes with fewer crew accomodations, but that is not a problem because it comes and goes from proper facilities, including Space Monasteries.

Also like the Corbita class, the Fossores is a very nimble ship, although it is not a warship and it relies completely on it's shields even if it comes armed with two multi-target small cannons for self-defense and to shrug-off small asteroid pieces.

The roles for this ship were not changed because of the Crusade, although their numbers were increased as mandate of the late Ascended Ori for their war efforts. Still, the rate of mining decreased to not over-strain the crews, the larger number have given the human Ori the resources needed to rebuild and to keep a presence in the Milky Way/Avalon galaxy to support the worlds that freely accepted Origin.

Ok Chile you have really outdone yourself with this one. This has gt to be the first time I have ever looked at a freighter and thought "that's gorgeous" I would actually be tempted to print one and have it on my mantelpiece. And yes I know the design was by Atolm but I also know first hand how much work goes into going from sketch to actual fleshed out model. So have a cookie.
I also think I should acknowledge how well you manage to flesh out entire fleets with literally one starting point. You've made a whole fleet of good looking Ori ships from a single mediocre toilet seat. You've made a whole range of Goa'uld/Jaffa ships from the three or four hulls we saw in SG1, and they all look as if they belong and look better than the originals.
So hats off to you because you have the eye for picking up on what makes a specific design aesthetic unique to a faction

Such words have really made my day and week! . Thank you very much!
There is more to come, so let's hope I can kee-up

Hello:
I have been very busy with house stuff, uncluttering the whole thing, but tonight I managed to retouch the Ori Praeventor class cruiser, so it has some more details including new sets of windows, so it doesn't look too bare and more like a cruiser, rather than a larger destroyer.

Still, this ship will be vital in the ingame fleets, s it will open-up extra research options for two new extra cruisers Iwill build in the future.

 

[Hath]

Very nice Chile the widows really help to flesh out your model.

 

[Chiletrek]

Hello:

Very nice Chile the widows really help to flesh out your model.

Thank you very much! And I agree, because it helps with how I envision the ship to be in my lore .

 

[Chiletrek]

Hello:
Merry Christmas for you all! The Fire of Celestis bless you all.
Here is my revamp of the first Ori Heavy Cruiser (there will be another), so it better match the original sketch AtolmAzel posted some days ago:

Polies remain the same, but I like it so much more now!

I really hope the next render I spost will be a new ship.

 

[Terra_Inc]

Good work all around, Chile.

One question though... it seems that most of the windows of the Ori ships point inward, where the big glowy thing would be. Did you or Atolm have any particular reason for designing the ships' layout this way? I'm assuming that the view from quite a few of those windows would be blindingly bright.

Thank you!

I blame the inward structures of the canon ship, although I admit I am not sure if they really had windows . But my AU Ori are people with an advanced culture, because it is baffling how medieval people can build starships even with Ascended guidance, so to not have ships ingame that would be too dark then I imagined they have polarized windows .

 

[Hath]

I always figured the peasants were used to bring raw materials to the ori starship manufacturing machines that used beaming tech to build the actual ships.

Hello:

It makes me wish that would have been specified more, maybe it was planned for SG-1's cancelled season11, since it was meant to be about exploring a bit of that galaxy.

Hello:
First ship of 2023! This is the Seron Dalem class Tirolian Gun Destroyer designed by AtolmAzel:

The Seron Dalem is a gun destroyer designed for the New Republic of Tirol's nascent Starfleet. At 700 meters in length it larger than the Neo Zentradi Rinaedou-Quelamitz class gun destroyer, but it has the same roles as a heavy bombardment starship with advanced sensors to even carry out patrols on it's own if necessary. But unlike the Neo Zentradi who mass-produce one class of gun destroyer, the Tirolian Serom Dalem is seem by many as a competitor design to the Synchrothron-armed Seron Qlispitsz class battlecruiser, as both designs share many capabilities.

The truth is, the Seron Dalem was created to fill an empty niche of having a powerful reflex-canon armed starship that remains near the core worlds of the Sentinels Alliance, allowing the renewed Border Fleets to keep their duties on the outer-edges and not having to immediately return to the core worlds if a situation gets out of hand, buying valuable time.

Two classes were created for this purpose, this is the larger one of the two.

The forward hull contains most of the ship's main weapons and it can be divided in two main sections as it splits to reveal the main reflex cannon:

- The dorsal area of the forward hull contains the command section. This section also contains the crew quarters.

- The ventral area of the forward hull contains most of the ship's primary systems. Two large sensor arrays, cargo areas and secondary hangars.

The aft hull contains the main engines, fold drive, main hangar bays as well as other equipments.

I hope you'll all like it. Please click Download so you can see full details.

Hello:
This is my take on the iconic Stargate, this time the gate featured in my Alternate Universe project of Stargate:

Created by the Ancients, the Stargate is a ring of 6.7056 meters in diameter and is able to connect with another via a stable wormhole, allowing for safe travel between different worlds. This version of the Stargate was created centuries after the one present in the Milky-Way and it can be considered a generation 3 Stargate, it has 39 glyphs symbols that is used to mark an "address" into another gate in Triangulum Galaxy, where a Tau'ri expedition goes to follow the trace of another group of Ancients and their home. the fabled Hyperborea.

There is a particular feature in this Stargate and is the presence of the same group of stars on several glyphs, that is what we call NGC 604, a massive HII nebula in the galaxy.

 

[Hath]

Great Gate Chile! I hope if they ever do a reboot of SG1 they contact you and use this idea.

As a side note if anyone gets the "Comet" network on satellite or cable they have started rerunning SG1 episodes.

Well, to ne honest Joseph Mallozzi once saw my original Hyperborean fleet and he liked it! It would be amazing if he gets to see my reimagined ideas, but I lost m Reddit account .

Not my case, but cool for who does have it!

Hello:
These renders were made for me to write a bit about my Alternate Universe of Stargate.

As mentioned in the Lore of the Ancients, the Great Schism was a war that erupted between the Alterans who were ever-expanding on the Milky Way/Avalon galaxy and the Ori, a splinter faction that follow a religion called "Origin", but were took-over by more extremists members and waged a war for supremacy of the original human race.

But after the invention of Zero-Point Modules and drone weapon that gave the Alterans an enormous advantage, another group of Alterans that grew tired of fighting and didn't want to push the war until the inevitable complete fall of the Ori, separated to follow their own path, but they did in good terms with the rest of the Alterans and they started calling themselves Hyperboreans. Their original main world been a colony closer to the galactic rim beyond a frozen world that was contested between Alterans and Ori because of the rich mineral deposits present in that system.

Not too long passed until the Plague started killing every human being in the galaxy, the Hyperboreans evacuated their remaining worlds before it was too late, but their cityship didn't follow Atlantis and the rest to Pegasus Dwarf galaxy, but rather decided to colonize a new galaxy and they chose Triangulum.

Triangulum is the third largest galaxy in the Local Group, having survived a near-collision with Andromeda 2000 million years ago, it is a very active galaxy and a big challenge for the inquisitve Hyperboreans, who scouted the entire galaxy and mapped it, over time creating a Stargate network and finding a new suitable home for them. After some centuries they entered in contact with the rest of their kind on Atlantis, they remained on their separate ways but there would exchange information on a regular basis. However, this new-found happiness won't last forever because a few Hyperboreans returned to Avalon to check on the state of the galaxy and without knowing they brought back the Plague to Triangulum, and so they all started dying-out, but been around for as long as the Alterans, they discovered how to Ascend.

The last Hyperborean to ascend did 10000 years ago, and without any more people, the Plague disappered, this time for good.
---
A couple of years ago, the Tau'ri Atlantis Expedition found in the database mention of the Hyperboreans, so a new team from Earth was sent to Pegasus in order to investigate and to find a trace to perhaps some last living Ancients. The address was finally found and then a new Expedition was created on Earth and they departed to Triangulum via Stargate arriving to the first world the old Hyperboreans set foot on many thousands of years ago. Once there, the Tau'ri settled on an abandoned Hyperborean outpost, which had many advanced technologies similar to Atlantis, like Puddle Jumpers; but with some reminiscences of technologies found on board the Destiny, like Kinos and Repair Robots.

They've also learned about Hyperborean ascension 10000 years ago (not long before the Ancient-Wraith war), but something was not right, because the outpost's logs had no failures but they mention the base was abandoned by it's original builders less than 50 years ago.

Hello:
This is my take on the iconic Stargate, this time the gate featured in my Alternate Universe project of Stargate:
<snip>

It looks great, and I like the combination of green and blue. My only point of criticism is that the chevrons are just one hue of green (what looks like 0x00FF00 on my display). I would suggest modifying the texture so they actually look like they're lit. I might see if I can mock up what I mean tomorrow.
Maybe you already meant to do something like that and I'm ranting about nothing, sorry.

Thank you very much! Oh well, I am still learning bits and things about drawings so if/when I release these Stargates then I'll try to make them be fancier with an effect.... which is curious because I do give effects to many texture features .

Sadly I won't be redoing the renders.

Ooh, that sounds spooky.

It is the start of the mistery! .

Hello:
These are renders of the Hyperborean Eleutheria class Exploration ship for my Stargate AU. This design was created by me and fleshed-out by AtolmAzel:

The Hyperboreans are a new humanity created by the ascended Ancient Hyperboreans 5000 years ago, with the objective of fullfiling their wish of peaceful exploration of the universe. For that purpose, the ascended ones guided their new humanity to ensure the survival of the species in the chaotic Triangulum galaxy. As centuries passed, the new Hyperboreans (re)discovered space flight and the use of Stargates, eventually develepping their own ZPMs and designing starships on their own instead of rebuilding the original fleet of their ancestors.

The Eleutheria class is their primary exploration ship, they constantly come and go from Hyperborean worlds or space stations to different destinations. The ships carry a small and permanent crew, but they have more than enough accomodations for science teams that would come and go during travels to interesting locations. For that purpose, the ship has two large side hulls, that ressemble pods, and with each having a large hangar for Gateships and that can even accomodate a single Gaterunner. The ship also comes with a central inner hangar in the main hull, in front of the habitation pyramid, where a shuttle + spare parts are located. The shuttle is mostly used for different missions and by the crew of the ship itself.

The Eleutheria class can also serve in defense duties as a 250 meters lenght frigate protecting larger Hyperborean ships. So it comes equipped with powerful shields, 12 Anti-fighter Energy Cannons, 6 Anti-capital Energy Cannons, 1 Heavy Energy Cannon and 2 drone launcher (one in every side hull). Their energy reserves come from a single Red-ZPM, but it also comes with auxiliary generators that can be filled with stellar matter, with the ship flying into a star, a technology used by their ancestors hundreds of thousands of years ago.

 

[Terra_Inc]

It's a cool design, well done.

Why a pyramid though? I would associate that with Goa'uld tech.

EDIT: Oh frak, I just realized it's based on the design of the Destiny... which has this kind of pyramid shaped structure on it. It looks more like a Mesoamerican pyramid than an Egyptian one, but the structure is there. So yeah, my bad.

I just saw your edit, and yes, the design idea of the ship has always been to mix elements from the Destiny and the Aurora to create something different but that you can still recognize as Ancient. And dont worry .

So the Hyperborean and Ori factions in my AU are new humanities with technologies that start to rival those of their forefathers.

Hello:
These are renders of the Hyperborean Tharsaa class Defense ship for my Stargate AU. This design was created based on a design by me and fleshed-out by AtolmAzel:

The Tharsaa class was born on the sudden need of ships that can protect Hyperboreans and friendlies from any hostile forces, and while the Eleutheria class is a potent ship in it's own right, it is a ship designed for exploration so most of it's systems are geared for those endeavours. The Tharsaa, however, was created as a combat ship, with better shields and more cannons that can fire at a faster rate.

To simplify construction and maintenance, Hyperborean designers thought of using the Eleutheria class as a base for the Tharsaa, but with a larger hull to accomodate the extra weapons, it also comes with two large side hulls, that ressemble pods, and with each having a large hangar for Gateships and that can even accomodate a single Gaterunner. The ship also comes with a central inner hangar in the main hull, in front of the habitation pyramid, where a shuttle + spare parts are located. The shuttle is mostly used for different missions and by the crew of the ship itself.

The Tharsaa class is 300 meters length and it would be classified as a destroyer by the people of Avalon (Milky Way galaxy). Tt comes equipped with powerful shields, 12 Anti-fighter Energy Cannons, 10 Anti-capital Energy Cannons, 1 Heavy Energy Cannon and 2 drone launcher (one in every side hull and have a larger stockpile than the Eleutheria class). Their energy reserves come from a single Red-ZPM, but it also comes with auxiliary generators that can be filled with stellar matter, with the ship flying into a star, a technology used by their ancestors hundreds of thousands of years ago.

Hello:
These are renders of the Hyperborean's new Gateship, otherwise known as their new "Puddle Jumper".

The Gateship you see here is a reinvention made by the Hyperborean's new humanity, who saw the usefulness of their forefathers' design, but made some changes of their own:
- They gave it a larger aft section to accomodate more people and/or cargo.
- An enlarged engine area to compensate for the extra mass.
- The retractable cannon was redesigned and enlarged, so now it deploys from dorsal retractable hatches.
- The cockpit window now has "blinds" for better defense.

The drone launchers and magazines remained unchanged.

Just like the original design, this is a small spacecraft that feature retractable thrusters that allow them to travel through a Stargate and a cloaking device to avoid detection.

I hope you will all like it. Comments are very appreciated .
