Worst looking ship?

[JoeZhang]

Surely nothing looks worse than the Yeager class?

That horrible looking science vessel blown away by the Klingons at the start of TSFS

 

[Huntingdon]

^Oberth class.

The Yeager didn't look so bad onscreen, from a distance and partially obscured.

I personally find the Sovereign the least aesthetically pleasing. It's not such an odd shape as the Yeager though.

I honestly don't think that any of those kitbashes, presumably required by budget, are as bad as the Enterprise-E ('E' for 'Eyesore'). That thing is so anti-Trek it hurts.

from TOS's "The Way to Eden"

 

[TurkTrekker]

My top 2 uglies:
Borg boxes
Federation Olympic class

 

[S'kai]

Enterprise-E. Damn thing looks so alien, it should be inhabited by insects. The fact that it is named Enterprise really nails it.

Photon torpedoes, full spread.

 

[Forbin]

Constellation class, a la the Stargazer.

Hideous kitbash.

How were the crew getting to the main hull on that class? using slides?

 

[Tralis]

The Yeager class just screams kitbash. The Saucer, midsection, and Nacelles don't seem to really work together at all.

I for one like the Sovreigns's shape. It looks a little more sleek & agressive, like someone stretched out a UFP ship. The Galaxy class looks cumbersome and slow in comparison.

 

[JoeZhang]

The Yeager is a kitbash of a maquis raider and a Intrepid class (voyager) "saucer".

 

[Moocey]

Crusher's medical ship in AGT. Hideous.

another view of it:

Steamrunner.
The Sovereign class is awesome,much better than the Galaxy class with it's oversized saucer.

 

[RyanKCR]

Galaxy Class then Excelsior.

Nearly all of the cheap kitbashes (used for the battle of Wolf 359 or during DS9's Dominion War) look abysmal. The Yeager class, Challenger class, Curry class, New Orleans class, Niagara class, etc. are definitely the worst of the Starfleet ship designs.

Agreed. Kitbashes, generally, just don't work.

FASA had some pretty awful stuff, too:

Excelsior Class

It's a kitbash for sure, but it does look reasonable considering. As in believable as a Trek ship (which I've never found the background ship classes from First Contact to be, for example) and does look as outdated and falling apart as described. Besides, personally, I like the 'flying saucer' aspect of it.

The Borg queens ship, I hate the thing it's like pimp my ride trek style.
