No estoy seguro, entre ENT y TOS. Probablemente sea una nave de los inicios de la Federación.

I'm not sure, betwin ENT and TOS. It's probably an early-Federation Starship.

I don't think so. For some reason the angled pylons don't seem to fit the design but I might change my mind as I progress.

I think that a angled pylons should work better. If not, you can try to doing something similar of i did which the Yorktown. I put at same time the angled nacels and straight nacels ... 2 on 1. If you watch care full, you can see the straight pylons, inside of the angled pylons a la NX style

Hi!

Ok, here you have three more renders, two of them showing the underside as it is now. I'm not sure what I'm going to do, probably add a few windows but besides that I have no idea. Any suggestions?

I'm not too crazy about the indentations on the underside of the saucer- is there any reasonable purpose for them or were they an accident that you've decided to try and run with? The rest, however, looks promising.

that is one of the most solid trek designs I have seen!

Lt.Carter · 07-16-2007, 12:18 AM

Very nice indeed. I had not thought of putting the Tos style landing gear on the Bonaventure but it looks like it will work out nicely.

What about shuttlebay doors? or something simillar.

they dont always have to go on the rear of the ship

That's great so far. I also really like this design. *resisting the urge to make on right now.... resisting the urge to make one right now....*

It's interesting to note the differences between yours and NightShadow's meshes since, as you say, references for this ship are scarce.

My intention was to add some detail that looked like the NCC-1701. The only remarcable detail it has in the underside of the plate are those two triangle-shaped thing, which according to what Lt.Carter said are supposed to hold the landing gear.

Thank you very much!

I agree. The original image in the Ships Of The Line book looks like a frame that could have been taken from one of the Trek movies or series.

Yes, I was considering to make a shuttlebay similar to the one of the NX-01.

I wouldn't mind seeing your own interpretation for this design if you really want to give it a try.

Bye
