USS Outrider Design

This one also goes with the retractable nacelle design which when open reveals the main deflector within the saucer section. She is supposed to fly with the nacelles to the front and the shuttlebay at the rear.

Well, it's a damn cool ship and a great idea, but retracting the nacelles in the way of the deflector is a bit dangerous. The deflector should be fulltime visible in front view, not only in warp-flight.

But I like the idea of the pulling nacelles instead of the classical pushing ones. It's a fancy new idea. Especially your want to have them top-down instead of left-right.

Yup I like the idea too. The ship looks fresh and futuristic. Star Trek designers could take a lesson or two from your drawing

Great tractor, I don't see a point in the nacelles retracting but it's a really cool design.

I can seed retracting the nacelles as a good tactical move.

Any time you present a smaller profile it's a good thing for combat purposes.

But the choice to block your bridge with them? I dunno. I know it isn't important where you put the bridge, it's still not aesthetically pleasing. Unless you reverse the deflector and have the ship going the way I first thought it was going.

Maybe if they were to either side?

Is it just me or does it seem like we're looking at a rear perspective in that drawing? After further examining the details I realized its a front view but my initial impression was that the ship was flying away from me.

Yep, at first I too thought the bridge got wider at the front. Took a few minutes to register properly... I can't decide if I love or loathe the design idea but the quality of the sketch itself is brilliant. How you kept it so clean looking is something I really need to learn.

Brilliant.

Fantastic.

Always nice to see a fresh take on the Trek Universe. We need more designs and ships like this

The longer I look at it. the more the hull design warms to me.

But the warp nacelles just scream to be turned 90 degrees and moved to the edges, but still be up front.

And Keep the retractability.
