Glad you’re still around Bill. Always loved your work. I miss the old Resin Illuminati days.
Spoilers Starship Design in Star Trek: Picard
- Thread starter pst
- Start date
It isn't even that big compared to a lot of them, 660 meters in length according to the production staff. It looks big at the end because the Eleos is only around 120 meters.
I think the criticism (certainly mine) is it's a generic "big bad ship". Which aslo applies to the Scimitar and Nerada.I like the Titan more than the Stargazer. If they make a new show with one of those, I'd prefer the Titan.
Before people say the Shrike is just "another big bad ship"... it's a long honored tradition.
The warbird on the other hand is fantastic (looks like a green cylon in retrospect) and the Cube is iconic.
Makes sense not to step on the toes of Prodigy for the Voyager-A.
It would give PROD license to destroy the A, if that's the ship Janeway & Co. end up using. Even if it happens in another 2 or 3 seasons.

Damn that's pretty!
I like the touches of the TOS Enterprise-style deflector circle and hatch outlines on the underside of the secondary hull.
Nice set of updated orthos too...
Is it me, or does the Eleos seem kinda small, even smaller than the NX-01
The Eleos may be smaller than a Nova-class. That shuttlecraft took up a lot of space docked on the primary hull.
I wonder what the story is behind that one?Also spotted what appears to be a Crossfield Class, or variant on the Frontier Day posters. It doesn't seem to have the cutouts in the saucer..
It's EASILY smaller than the Nova-class or NX-class.
From eye-balling the size of the shuttle and it's rear airlock
It's no-where close to a 2## meter ship.
It's closer to somewhere beteen the:
La Sirena = 85.6 meters length
&
NX-76884 USS ProtoStar = 139.0 meters length
Exact #'s are obviously not here yet, but from what I can tell, it's not very big.
Lightened up a bit.Were these two consoles in previous seasons? at least I think they're consoles.
Fully lit, non-CGI shot from S1(?)
Showing just the RH console
The chairs seem to come and go.
That is probably a conscience choice by the Producer rather than a production restriction.
Kurtzman Trek has complete access to everything CBS owns since day one of TOS.
(the one exception being some of the Franz Joseph materials)
There's a Defiant class and Intrepid class in the end credits, and there's a Sovereign class flying around outside Spacedock.
Season 2 Episodes 1 and 10 had several Sovereign Classes, and we saw a Steamrunner and Nova Class in Episode 2.
They have the rights to use everything from the movies and shows.
