People be posting their detailed ship designs. Turns out I have one too! This is my model sheet for the Kobayashi Maru as it appears in my web strip of the same name. My concept of the Kobayshi Maru borrows more from Ridley Scott's design of the Nostromo than a typical Star Trek ship. More industrial in appearance, and with giant spheres to store the neutronium fuel.
Actual sea going gas carriers use gigantic spheres to hold their cargo. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cc/LNG-carrier.Galea.wmt.jpg
Brilliant take! I love the shapes, and feel. in a lot of ways this would fit perfectly with the Discovery stuff, or even NuTrek as an independent fuel carrier/cargo hauler.
Anyway, a [insert dangerous fuel] tanker is always a good place for doom and gloom while ships go boom type of story.. As for Klingons, as long they stay angry, annoyed, easily riled up, volatile and violent I might forgive them the changes..
