    I have taken your advice, and provided two new drawings in addition to what I already had. The new angles proved challenging after all (especially the shading!) but I think I have an idea of how the ship's general exterior shape is. Stay tuned, more is on the way!

    I really like that. The top-right view could use some work, so try focusing on that angle a few more times to work out the perspective a bit more. Grab a toy or model Enterprise for reference and hold it up in front of your face as you work it out. Your lines are crisp and clean and I don't see anything wrong with the shading that won't straighten out with a bit more practice. Art takes work and the passion to see your way through even boring practice that no one's ever going to see.

    I'm looking forward to see where you take this!

    So I improved not only the shading and detailing on the upper right image, but I also edited the proportions slightly. The original drawing is on the left, the improved drawing is on the right.

    It didn't show up because you didn't insert an actual image link (which should end in an image file extension like *.jpg or *.png) but a link to the dA entry. I had a look at it and it seems like dA doesn't easily give you the actual image link. I recommend using a service like imgur.com to host the images you want to post inline in the thread (which is what I did in your post). :)

    It's October so that means Inktober! It's a drawing challenge where you do an ink drawing based on single word prompts based on the day, and today and yesterday I happened to do some Trek drawings so I thought I'd share them here instead of a new thread, since I don't oft draw Star Trek things.

    And here is a digital drawing I did to celebrate Star Trek Day.
