Set blueprint exchange

Yes, the drawing and handwriting style look like Sternbach, but since Jein led the modeling of the 6' and 2' Enterprise-D models for ILM, it would make sense that he had them in his files.

From the TMP Official Blueprints set.

There's no date on it, so it's possible it got misfiled, hence the eBay seller lumping it in with the other artwork from '87. But Greg Jein and his folks did build the maquettes for the Dyson sphere, so it would make sense that he had a sketch of how the doors would open. Not sure what the drawing on the flip side is supposed to be, though.
Flip side drawing is likely supposed to be the interior of the sphere, possibly from the view of the hatch
 

Maybe a video game like Star Citizen…I don’t know if it was the Drex Files or Eavesdropping with Johnny—but I think an early concept for Shinzon’s Scimitar was a more vertically oriented design, like WALL-E’s “Axiom,” itself inspired by John Berkey:


NES had this 1986 title called GRADIUS that looked similar.

It was around this time period that FASA game ships had a harder edge after they lost the Trek license.

It screams “video game art.”
