Nimoy-Class...

LLaP my friend:

I know my friend, we'll all miss him. A truly wonderful design, to tribute someone truly unique and irreplaceable. I had thoughts about doing something similar myself, but have found myself so busy since the beginning of the year. I've been playing way too much on my 3DS, and yet can't seem to be satisfied enough with my progress!

But I would have liked it better if you went with a richer red or orange, maybe even hot rod red, like on the older Vulcan cruisers, back when they had a sense of style, instead of that rust red, because this is Nimoy that we're talking about here!

Very good design for a Awesome Man of Epic

Excellent. I love your marker work.

I really like this. Would love to see someone do a 3d rendering.

Have you given any thought to a front diagram to go with the side and top diagrams you created?

Might qualify to enter this month's contest.

An excellent blend of Vulcan and human elements- very appropriate.

I get the reason you called it the Nimoy Class but Shouldn't this be the Spock Class? Wouldn't that be more apropos? Just wondering.

Atolm,

This is an inspiring design. If you wouldn't mind, I'd like to make a 3d model of your model in LightWave.

Do you have other views you could post, and an idea of overall dimensions for her?

Great work!

I was gonna ask the same

Maybe, but canon ships in the Trek universe are named for fictional and real people alike, so it could go either way.

"Spock-Nimoy Class? Best of Both Worlds!

I also love the blend of elements, Human and Vulcan, and I like the muted nature of the color. Hope you say yes to 3-D!

A great design.

Thanks mate.

Thank you bro. I opted the rust red-brown because I liked the muted serene feel to it, almost like a sailing ship. Something that Nimoy himself always seemed to convey when every time I had seen him in real life when meeting with him.

Excellent. I love your marker work.

Thank you sir.

Thanks. I do have a front view, I will post it up soon along with a 3/4 perspective...I have just been tied up with work. So keep an eye out.

Generally I do not enter contests, just not my thing.

An excellent blend of Vulcan and human elements- very appropriate.

Thanks bro...I also incorporated a bit of Romulan in there as well, as Spock was very much into "reunification", so I tried to incorporate that is some capacity.

I get the reason you called it the Nimoy Class but Shouldn't this be the Spock Class? Wouldn't that be more apropos? Just wondering.

I Called her Nimoy-Class because, generally, when it comes to actors, I name classes of ships after real-life people when they pass; as opposed to Characters. The Class would be named after them while ships within the class would be named after their roles. So like Nimoy-Class USS David Kibner, after his role in the invasion of the body snatchers. And yes that would mean there would be a USS Galvatron.

Thank you. Feel free to mesh her up bro, I would be honoured...I will be posting more of her soon. I place her length at around 350m give or take.

Aye, see the above reply

Thanks a lot. As I had stated earlier in this post of replies, I wanted to blend the elements best I could, as well as adding hints of Romulan as Spock had a thing for Rommies.

A great design.

Thanks always my friend

Such an eligant design, great for a science vessel, I cannot wait to see a 3D render of this

 

[Starship]

I was asking myself when you could do a homage like this and... voila! Here is the ship.
Great design Chris!

Thanks mate. I am sure whomever undertakes her will do an astounding job. Of that I am certain, as there is no loss of talent and dedication in us Trek fans.

/lol thanks bro. I had to do something... and this is the only thing I know how to do.
And as promised some other views.
