I think she's a damn good looking ship that fits TOS era.

The 3D bridge illos. from the second link are phenomenal.
The running-through look is kinda cool, but the aero engineer in me is screaming.![]()
What does the engineer in you say about the Reliant, from TWoK?
I mean, was there no other way to mount the photon torpedo launcher?
And, how does the crew get to the launcher bay? Use the transporter (during combat with energy spikes)? Tiny stairwell accessways? It's totally automated?
the larson is FASA-Trek.
So is the Loknar.
Now, the Miranda version with the Ent. Secondary hull upside down doesn't work well for me, either... since it's too OBVIOUSLY just a kitbash.
Now, that Antares does work for me... kind of...
It does??
OK, admittedly the last image is tolerable.
Now, that Antares does work for me... kind of... but I guess it's canon now, eh?
It does??
I was about to say the only vessel that looks even more like a kitchen implement is the Donozev. :devil:
OK, admittedly the last image is tolerable.
The overall proportions are about the same as the enterprise. She's ugly as sin, but she's proportioned right.
I LOVE the Donosev!
Yep. What's interesting is that the design first saw life in the Animated Series. There's an article on the net that discusses how the ship's designer took that vessel, from TAS, and slapped a pod on the front for the crew (as TAS vessel was robotic).
Look again. The Antares is actually much smaller than just the Enterprise's secondary hull (although it's almost as long as the secondary hull). Given the Antares design, it's volumn has got to be about 30% of the secondary hull of the Enterprise or there abouts.
