Thanks bro!Lovely design
Thank you brother!Awesome!
Hey thanks bro!

Just an option I was considering.

Thanks a lot!Great design, Love the way how the two engineering hulls are embedded into the saucer, looks a bit like a sunfish with the saucer that way.

Look like station nodules
I could see those blades inserted into the grooves in a fractal arrangement....a space-lane segment...something like this:

These would replace Regula One type stations.

LOLI'd build all of them! Would confuse the hell out of the enemies!
That could work, but seeing as this is a starship proposal, I'd have to rethink many things
Interesting designs for stations, @Atolm
I will admit, without meaning to diminish your amazing as always artwork, at first look, I'm wasnt personally getting a Federation vibe. Probably because of the lack of some form of circular core or modules (K-7, the orbital TMP station, the same module upside down for Regula 1, and Earth Spacedock).
The Type I especially giving me a Cardassian vibe, due to the vertical sails.
Yet, at the same time, Epsilon 9 in TMP was very horizontal, as was the Argus Array in TNG, so there's the precedent. So these could be science or monitoring stations. Did you have thoughts as to their purpose?

That is all well and good, but... these are starships, not stationsInteresting designs for stations, @Atolm

Oops!?That is all well and good, but... these are starships, not stations
Well, they're definitely different from your typical distinctive Federation designs!
Thanks... The first one was my first pass at the whole initial concept (sporting vertical nacelle "blades")...After seeing that the design appeared too busy, I opted for the second, as a more minimalist approach, by integrating the nacelles into the squared-saucer arches, but again felt that the ship looked too simple for my taste, so then came in the third gal...and I am 90% sure this is the way to go,,, but we will seeOops!?

here is a rough study of a ventral 3/4 and a bow/aft general shape of the third:

I could totally see that, but to me that would limit my ideology towards Federation starships, and I will counter that with hundreds if not thousands of species within the Federation, forces me to always take that into account. It is a crazy notion that designs would be that "standardized" as it has been presented in show. Also, one must look at the design and say, "What era would this fit?" (26th Century BTW)... I'd never say that the one faction which has shown the most diversity of minds, would have a homogenized fleet.
Think about that for a second... Hundreds of worlds comprising of hundreds of species... How many designers and approaches to design exist just here on Earth?
Also of some small note: Starfleet is generally "Earth's fleet", yet it also serves the Federation as a whole as their fleet... And as pretty much all the other races within the Federation have their own indigenous fleets, or at the very least a warp capable space programs. That is a lot of ships!
Anyway, I am not done with this concept study...I am still pursuing her until I feel satisfied with her
As always bro I love your (and everyone's feedback), and thanks for trying to reel me in if you feel I've gone too far...lol
Aye for sure
Thanks!Cool ship designs
