Redirect to original
Description A little project of mine (yes, another) That I had the idea of doing with Kim at one point but decided it would be better as a standalone.

Technically, that would be MY ship... and by that I mean a ship that I would either command or serve on were I in a Star Trek universe (When Star trek Online hits, you can BET I'm getting it)

Class - Steamrunner Light Cruiser refit
Name - U.S.S. Arcadia
Registry - NCC - 83276

Type X phaser arrays
Deflector Shields
Ablative Armor over critical components
4 "tube" rapid fire torpedo bays (2 fore 2 aft)

This is a 3d model ripped off of ST: Armada 2 with a custom skin upon which I added some extra detail (both the skin and mesh) I could have redone the complete mesh, but in the end, it would probably have been as polyreduced as this model.. it's the only thing I'm good at doing. Plus now I'm sure I have the correct proportions ^^

EDIT Re-uploaded a new version of a better rendered/textured ship Huge one

I love the Steamrunner! I fly one in STO and it handles great.

Awesome pic! Never been much of a fan of Steamrunner class, always been a fan of crusiers such as Akira class. VERY nice work though

I just downloaded the game, but it's asking me to choose between 2 "account types". I can't seem to understand what the difference is between "Perfect World" and "Cryptic"...

Lionheartcartoon In reply to clampfan101 [2012-02-07 14:38:23 +0000 UTC]

I have no idea either. But being that those are names of software developpers, I'd say it asks you to choose who hosts your account.

clampfan101 In reply to Lionheartcartoon [2012-02-07 15:27:45 +0000 UTC]

who "hosts" it?
(if it makes any difference with deciding btw, I'm probably just doing that freeplay thing)

With star trek online, have you had this ship flying around yet

Lionheartcartoon In reply to foxman4 [2012-01-31 13:47:22 +0000 UTC]

I would have lost the bet. When Star trek online got released 2 years later my interests changed. While I still have a spot for 'ST:Arcadia' in my workplate, I couldnt get around to playing STO with everything else in my life.

However I did see some ships of similar design and I don't know if I could get something THAT close to a steamrunner.

Have you heard of StarFleet International? [link]
Largest Star Trek fan organization on Earth.

As far as I can tell, there is not yet a USS Arcadia in service of SFI.
So... get 10 friends together, all sign up for SFI. You and one other (your XO) will have to take a couple courses from the Academy (that's free. it's just to show SFI that you two have read the manuals and know how a SFI ship is run.)

For me the type of vessel form that period I like, and it was under development at the same time, was the Akira class vessel I think it was called. Sleek but deadly. A warship and borg killer class, nothing more or less.

But love the pic!

That would be awesome.

Gabrial-Dragon45 [2009-02-18 03:34:39 +0000 UTC]

the steamrunner class is pretty much my favorite star trek ship class i mean u probbly remember how we all felt when we saw the galaxy class ship design and various other designs for the first time and btw i think atm the only ship ppl are callin ugly is JJs ship not this one.

snarkyVansnarkson [2008-07-18 17:50:43 +0000 UTC]

I was all ready to compliment you on your design, but you say you took it from someone else. Anyways, well executed.

There should be another TNG/Voyager/DS9 era movie that focuses on the war with the Borg. If the Defiant was designed to fight the Borg just imagine how many other ships you could roll out.

no one can't say I at least didnt respect the original author. I juiced up the texture and did minor alterations to the original model. But no, I didnt do it all myself.

I like the design. Simply but consistent with the Star Fleet designs. Look along the lines of the U.S.S. Defiant.

Though how did you come up with the name "Arcadia"?

Lionheartcartoon In reply to StarDragon77 [2007-05-15 22:24:19 +0000 UTC]

It happens to be the english name to a spaceship from a cartoon I watched as a kid "Captain Harlock". I just had to name the ship in honor to my childhood hero

Oh, I thought I had commented on this, very cool specs for the ship, I might do something similar with my personal ship anyways I was wondering if you had star trek armada 2, and if so, you wanted to play around online abit.

I'd have to reinstall it along with its patch ^^ I also have Legacy installed at the moment

Well if you ever get an itching to play star trek armada again just tell me, I have yet to get to play aginst anyone online, which is a bummer.

Fantastic ! I miss the good ol' days of Trek before Enterprise started screwing with the time line. Forgive me, but you don't *do* that. Might've been because they had uninformed writers. I would love to see Peter David's New Frontier series as a television series, but it will never happen...
(sigh) Ah well. Stupendous work my friend, as usual.

Lionheartcartoon In reply to WarriorofLight [2007-05-11 02:59:37 +0000 UTC]

Thanks And I know what you mean. From the pilot, Enterprise really didnt grab me as a star trek series. Just not the same.

I have to come up with some ideas myself, but I'm in no hurry. As long as I have a bit omy art to remindme, I'll be fine ^^

WarriorofLight In reply to Lionheartcartoon [2007-05-12 02:54:54 +0000 UTC]

I can't wait to see what you develop. I have quite a few ST fanfics on my fanfiction.net website. I even did a version of Lupin the III that took place in space (a Cowboy Bebop inspired idea, along with hints of Angel Links and Outlaw Star). It's been a while since I actually looked at my scripts and fics, but I haven't written a descent Lupin fic in a while. Still to this day, my most beloved character *has* to be Dominique. She's a bit like me, except I am not a thief.
