The Valkyrie

Well, they took a while, and are far from finished, but here's a set of dorsal, ventral and elevation schematics.

I think the design would look better from the side elevation if you took a design cue from the Enterprise-E, and allowed for a "lower saucer dome" to protrude down a little to give it a little touch of TOS.
 
Flux.

I like your ship, very very much. You are quite talented and I am muchly impressed.

One note I would suggest, just my own perspective and my own personal preference (as I can't draw worth shit -- you should see my storyboards! :lol:). .... fix the nacelles on the shuttle so they aren't hanging off the back of the shuttle. Have the wings/pylons be attached to the ends of the nacelle so they advance forward, next to the shuttle itself. Balances everything out.

Just a suggestion.

Otherwise, keep up the excellent, excellent work. :thumbsup:
 
Just now noticed this too... I like that from the top, it looks like the ship was just carved from the Starfleet arrowhead. Nice touch. :thumbsup:
 
Flux Capacitor, this is one of the rare "fanon" starship designs I've seen that I think would be right at home in the canon Trek universe--I place the Valkyrie in select company with such outstanding achievements as Vektor's Grandeur and Dennis Bailey's Phoenix. (Your shuttle concept is also oozing slick-ness.)

Outstanding! :thumbsup:

It has taken me a littler longer than I thought it would to get around to the orthos of the ship and to finish up the scene I had planned for my original sketch, but here's something I whipped up last night while it was fresh in my mind. Its the larger of the ship's support craft and perhaps the next generation of Federation runabout.

Very hot-rod-ish. All that's missing is fins. ;)

That's a sweet shuttle, man.
