Worst TOS kitbashes?

Are there any ships out there that people made that could potentially be a contender for the Worst TOS kitbash in the fandom?

 

My site's full of them. I won't name names.

Most of them are pretty good, though.

 

you've considered updating the Space Battleship Yamato section by adding the 2199 ships yet?

 

and not to be rude fix the pic of my Minerva Mink Class on there? it still has a section cut out from Bottom of saucer. Also someday if its ok make a cool 3 view schematic of one of the N'Redomm class ships

 

Yes. Currently in work and talking about it here. Starting around page 25 for some previews.

 

You will find a few clunkers in my Deviant art gallery

Fixed.

 

Thank you very much ^_^ Theres more new designs in my DA Gallery

 

I think I’m done with Trek for a while. Focusing on Yamato for now.

 

Ahh ok I know another artist to fill your site with Yamato ships

Kitbash bashing??

I'll volunteer a couple of my own that... didn't come out the way I envisioned them.

I refuse to be so rude as to pick on anyone else's bashes, tho.

 

some of your bashes look like TOS versions of ship configurations fit for Star Trek: Discovery

 

I agree. Because my own designs can be bad, I don't like criticizing anyone else's. But if someone who doesn't design ships wants to criticize designs, please have fun.

Note: Holy cow! On 137th Gebirg's page, the most designs are 375 by Neal "Vance" Davidson (also 103 by Dirk Jansen and 78 by Ian Keldon). Its got only 19 designs by me and 2 named after me. I beat Forbin by 1! Yeah me!

 

Yep, Neale was one of my most prolific contributors back in the day, and he did some really good ones, too. He wasn’t one of those guys who took someone else’s existing design, moved the warp engines 5 pixels south and called it a new ship. His untimely death was a horrible loss to the fandom. He was a truly good dude in the short time I knew him. Ian Keldon followed in that tradition by making some really imaginative designs with Neale’s toolkits for several years.

I miss Neale His Death was a severe loss to the Starship design fandom

 

Hearing about Neale makes me depressed about this post. So, rather than making fun of anyone else's work, I'll tell you about my worst design. It's not a kitbash, but I once designed a Gorn ship (for TOS's Arena) that basically looked like a spiked, big-mouthed lizard with warp nacelles. Sort of like the comically bad Muppet ship from "Pigs in Spaaacceee," but I wasn't trying to be funny. After that I never again tried to design non-UFP ships (except Klingon and Romulans, which are easy). Hail Starfleet!

 

I once made a combo of a Oberth mixed with a submarine.. no idea what the occasion was, something about how starships would do when dropped into an ocean, anyway, didn't look too good...

 

And I even named one after you (well, Warped9 named it after you, and I built a model of it).

 

I recently realized I haven't done a kitbash in about 5 years! Crap, I gotta get cracking!
