JJ-Trek versions of other starfleet vessels

[Jiraiya]

I can't wait to see NuTrek versions of older designs from TOS (particularly Franz Josephs designs).

And then there are the revised ships from other races too, such as the Klingons, Cardassians and others.

I'd try my hand but except for miniature painting, I am not much of an artist.

Madman has done it already his work is incredible. Check it out.

There was a brief clip in the film where Pike leads a whole bunch of Fed ships towards Vulcan. One of the ships looks a bit like an Akira.

 

[Admiral Buzzkill]

There are ships with one nacelle, three nacelles...

Thank you

Jist what I was looking for

I saw one that looked like it was similar to the constellation class, with a saucer section and four nacelles

 

[Gepard]

Assuming I'm thinking of the one you are, it had two nacelles on top, connected by a curved rollbar, and two secondary hulls below.

 

[Kaziarl]

Was it hulls underneath? You're probably right, but it was the one immediately to the right of the enterprise, and as they were warping out it was directly in front of the enterprise.

As mentioned upthread this is awesome.

For a Star Fleet Battles/Federation Commander player like me (which is based off of FJ's ships), this is 100% as far as I am concerned.

The only changes I would make are replacing the bottom dome on the primary hulls of the Saladin and Hermes with sensor arrays, otherwise it is just as I imagined.

I want a model of that four engine jobbie

 

[sojourner]

Did any one notice alot of the ships looked like the Matt Jeffries sketches for different layouts of Enterprise? Pretty cool that.

 

[Admiral Buzzkill]

Yeah.

One thing that JJTrek has done is ignore some of the nonsense design rules (like the "matched nacelle rule") that Roddenberry (not a design artist himsefl) laid down in an apparent attempt to de-privilege Franz Joseph's work. So fan artists don't have to play Starfleet Colorforms to quite the extent that was encouraged before.

 

[BolianAuthor]

Yeah.

And yet, Mr. Roddenberry is the creator of Star Trek, and responsible for its very existence.

That must bug you to no end, lol.

Has anyone ever thought of what a JJ-inspired Enterprise-C or -D might look like? Or even Sisko's Defiant?

 

[Falconfire]

not really, because he also was known to be a raging asshole sometimes, the FJ argument, and screw over of Courage being two prime examples.

Of course not. You've both produced a logical non sequitur and missed your target completely.

"But like a poor marksman, you keep missing the target."

Come on Dennis, that was the perfect oppurtunity to quote TWOK.

You lose 2 nerd points.

I got a drawer full of pre-war nerd points here somewhere. I'll get by.

Is that you in your avatar? You look like "Farmer Ted" from "Sixteen Candles" in it.

I saw that one too! Two deflector dishes must come in pretty handy

 

[BorgMan]

I'm busy with JJ'ing the Carolina, I've continued work on it yesterday so I think I can show you some progress renders tonight
