It's the body of Ensign Youngblood. The photo is the same Dennis mentioned. You can look him up on Memory Alpha.

Exactly.

Oddly, doing a Google image search I couldn't find that particular photo of him anywhere.

Did these quite a few years ago:

And even used the same template when I was working out costumes for Polaris:

These are the ones! - TOS with a TNG vibe - what if the show was rebooted in the 90s...?

Thanks. Before we started on Polaris another idea a couple of us kicked around was doing a fan film in a sort of "TOS variant" setting. We even had a starship design:

It wasn't actually going to be the Enterprise, but a couple of years later Anthony over at Trekmovie.com wanted illustrations for what the JJPrise might look like, so I slapped the 1701 registry on this one and rendered it out again.

Oh cool. Out of interest what was the premise? Apart from the ship and uniform designs how far did it go? I look forward to POLARIS!

This is what the "JJ-Prise" should have looked like. It looks like the original, but with much more detail. I can accept the torpedo tube, if only because everything else fits with what the original Enterprise looked like, just movie-level detail. I think Vektor (another) and deg3D did movie-detail versions also that were really good. Pick one of these three and put them in the next TOS movie. Drop JJ-prise as soon as possible and issue an apology for it.

That ship is amazing! Is there more pics of it somewhere?

Admiral Buzzkill · December 13 2012, 11:30 PM

I might be able to render one or two more out.

I like the Church/Abrams version of the Enterprise very much, and can't imagine why they would choose now to back off from the design direction they're taking in the features (and I'm quite sure they never will). What I do with things like this is fun - I like it, and I'm appreciative that other people do - but it's not design really. It's a kind of visual pastiche, which is why I put credits on the images for the artists who did design just about every element of it.

These are all great. Looking foreward to seeing more.

I do remember one design which was basically the TOS unifom with what I can describe in a TNG aesthetic. Coloured stripes down the trouser legs. There was some black on each side under the arms. This is not from memory - I have a small pic of one of them.

I've got at least 2 different ones that look somewhat like that on my hard drive SOMEwhere...

I always liked the "monster maroon" pattern, but using TOS division colors for the jacket and pant stripe myself...

Danlav05 · December 14 2012, 04:14 PM

Lol the ones Dennis posted at the top of the page were the ones I was talking about!

Ian Keldon · December 14 2012, 04:34 PM

I LOVE the Dennis/Legion uniforms. His alt-Enterprise is pretty good too.

For some reason, I want to say that he did a phaser I/II update as well? I've seen the name Dennis associated with one.

I would use something very close to those uniforms, and an updated set of hand props for a new tv series. I think though I'd go with MadKoiFish's revamp of the Enterprise though.

Then I'd do something in the tri-colors with one of Longinus' uniforms for the "movie era"

Admiral Buzzkill · December 14 2012, 09:08 PM

There are threads around here somewhere for the other Trek stuff I've done in the last four or five years.

EDIT: Here they are:

Challenger

Phase II Enterprise

Phoenix

I really should redo the texturing on the Phase II ship and release it somewhere.

If anyone has any remarks about either it might be better to necropost in those topics rather than drag Danlav05's uniform topic further off course than I already have.

Not really...I "bashed" them by color manipulating existing images. I've long since lost the credits on them so I'd be leery of posting them.
