Never seen TOS scenes...round 3

One of the very few decent things to come out of ENT were some of the ship designs. The best of those was their new Romulan BoP. The problem was that the new design actually looked like a successor to the TOS BoP rather than a convincing century old predecessor. The new BoP looked more like TMP era.
And so in that light and considering I accept ENT as an alternate universe anyway, back in this universe here's the TMP era Enterprise encountering two new Rihansuu BoP's.

Forgive a little self promotional gushing here, but I just got a chance to see some of my photomanip images on a 32in. Samsung LCD tv and frankly I'm a little buzzed. I thought my images looked okay enough on a computer monitor up to about 20in., but I had no idea that some of them look really good on a big screen. Now that I've seen them this way I'm inclined to be even more critical of the CBS remastered images. Some of my shots have a tangible sense of depth and the ship can look really 3D and substantial, all the while retaining that familiar TOS feel and aesthetic sense.
So forgive me for feeling a little proud of myself for a moment.
Mind you the big screen also allowed me to see some flaws (not major) that I can now correct for in the future now that I'm aware of them.

Pretty cool! :thumbsup:
The TOS/TNG crossover that should have happened…
I do have one nitpick: Will’s head is a little big, and Jean-Luc’s is a little small. (Kirk and Uhura look interesting me thinks...
)Still, it’s a hint of ‘what could have been’ in a season of TNG….
Actually, I was going to say that Riker and Picard were looking a bit large in the cranium... but excellent nonetheless! :thumbsup:
Well in TNG's first season Picard's head did look a bit big for his body. And everything about Riker started inflating after the second season. Christ, look how long it took Shatner to get really inflated, but just about only a decade after TNG Frakes has really gone to seed.
That's actually one of the best shots I've seen of those ships. Where did you find your pics of them?
BTW, I'd have to agree that this ship looked more advanced than the TOS version. I know the classic Bird of Prey was originally planned to contain technology stolen from the Federation (explaining the similarity to the Enterprise), but the Ent BoP was very similar in design to the TNG Warbird.
One of my favourites has long been the "what if" we'd gotten a season of Pike era Trek in, say, 1965-66 before TOS. So here's a made up promo shot of Number One and a few stills from an imagined episode where Pike is cut off from the Enterprise and finds an alien ship occupied by a strange apparition.
I added a tough of blur, grain and blue tint to "age" the pics for a bit of vintage look. (-:

^^ I wish they had managed to have some form of field jacket for TOS.
Here's a promo shot for our fictitious Pike era season of '65-'66.
Because of the spikes on the engine domes I tried for a different way of lighting up the nacelles as if you could see the glow of energy from within.
