The virtual study model is awesome! Thanks very much for posting this.
With regards to making the paper model available, I could certainly post the plans as they are at the moment. It builds up to a very small model. I'd like to revise the whole thing and make it twice as large if possible. Stay tuned and I'll see what I can do.

Here are some more resources for you

Atolm's saucer is flatter, and I like that--the Titans saucer needs to be wide and flat-ish, like the kelvin, only rounded at the corners.

The secondary hull here looks good, but the saucer is a little tall for me--closer to Ken Adam's concept

This was actually used in best of both worlds--it uses the more narrow secondary hull and the engines are wide end front.

This matches the smaller McQuarrie-prise we see moving towards the asteroid base. The tall rounded saucer is perfect for that one

The wider study model is what made it into STIII TSFS spacedock, the narrow-body in TNG's Best of Both Worlds.

These are re-imaginings of course and match the elegance of Probert's designs a bit better.

I think anyone who has the patience to build a good paper model like that is truly talented and has a lot of patience. I envy you pfontaine. That thing looks awesome.

Planet Of The Titans Enterprise paper model

I posted this image in the thread about Planet of the Titans and thought I'd share it here. I'm not a huge fan of the McQuarrie/Adams Enterprise design but thought that it would be fun to build up a version just to see what it looked like in three dimensions.

I made this paper model. The model is probably 5 inches across but it seems to match up pretty well to some of the McQuarrie paintings, though there are inconsistencies in nearly all of them!

Hi PFontain,

I've been off the forum for quite a few years. Anyways... To the reason and point of me dregging up and replying to your topic here.

I like building small models of ST ships (in 1/2500 scale), be they plastic, resin of paper models.
So I was searching for models of the "Ralph McQuarrie Enterprise" on Google, and came across images of your paper model. (reason for me reactivating my membership here. lol)
Só I was wandering if you still have this paper model in the small format (the 5 inch across version)? And if so.... Would it be possible, if I could get a copy of the model please?
Even if you don't have it in the original size, but in a larger size, I would like to have a copy.
I would appreciate it very very much.
Here's my e-mail, if you so decide to let me a copy of it.

Thanks in advanced.
Have a great day!

Hi Vamp,
I'd be happy to give you a copy if I can find it. It's quite old at this point and I'd have to search through whatever archives I have to find the file. I'll send you an e-mail if I find the file with the understanding that you can't redistribute it, just build one for yourself.
Hope to be in touch soon.

I found the model but it's just artwork, no indication of fold lines, glue tabs or anything. Since I designed the model, I knew what needed to go where but it would probably be very confusing to anyone else but me. I'm going to spend a little time revising it slightly to make it easier to build. Hopefully I'll be able to send it to you later today.

I'm trying to see if I can share the paper model on my DropBox account. The link is:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/w6eyc1u72n35kpd/ST_POT Enterprise.pdf?dl=0
I'll attach a jpeg version but I think downloading the PDF would be preferable

Just be warned, I designed the model for myself and therefore never included glue tabs or fold lines etc. I've added fold lines and some build notes to the PDF file but you're on your own when gluing the pieces together. Sorry! Please refer to the image at the head of this thread for reference.

 

[pfontaine2]

BTW, I know this is nearly impossible to control but please don't redistribute the model. Consider it a gift to the fine folks here on the Trek BBS. I just don't want to see a file I'm giving away for free being sold on eBay at a profit.
Thanks for your cooperation!

Hi Pierre,

I recived your e-mail and the model attachment.
I've looked at it. It's not a difficult build from what I can see. And with the image for refrences, I'll be fine.

Thank you very much.
BTW: she's a perfect size/scale (1:2500) for my collection.

And no worries... From my end, the model stays with me only.

Well wishes...
Vahmp
