A spacegoing gothic cathedral. I could see either of them in command of it, but better still Van Helsing (Cushing) in command of a Defiant-class (very easy to underestimate) coming upon this ship, commanded by a very regal-looking Reman Commander as portrayed by Lee.

You know when I drew her out, I automatically wanted to make it a Reman vessel, but didn't plan on her to look so gothic... it must have just been subliminally in my mind. And in hindsight, was for the best, as it homages to both actors, and their legacy as portrayals as some of the most famous villains in history. Both Lee and Cushing have played so many of my favorite characters in literature, and given them new life, and facets that they have, in a way, added much more dimension than their original material, that they became a foundation of the genre.
Thanks mate!

LOL thanks. I would think that if Bat's had a starship, it would be slicker.

I dunno seems lately his Cars have been less slick but still cool and brooding looking.

very very nice...

Pretty great design. But since both of these guys were in that other sci-fi franchise and not this one, why did you choose to honor them from the Trek side?

but his jets have always been slick
Nolan's view of the tumbler as the batmobile was an expression of counter culture to the status quo of "Batman". But it was cool.

very very nice...

Thanks

Thanks, and that's easy to answer...I always honour actors I love with trek ships, as it is the genre I love most to design for.

Why not honour them in Trek? It's all Sci Fi

Fair enough. I can respect that.
