How are we feeling about Probert's Enterprise-D concept?
;-)

where are the windows?
>>216789574>>216789573>>216789529kik!
>>216789602you must conceptualize them
>>216789529O II I
for me it's voyager
>>216789659newfrens cant starship
cozy thread
>>216789573Anons forgot their boarding passes :(

wideboi
Probert also worked on the refit, one of his ideas was doors to cover the Photon Torpedo tubes, but that didnt happen
so what's the episode lineup tonight on h&i

>>216790129>doors to cover the Photon Torpedo tubesI wonder what that would've looked like
Nothing beats Proberts C Concept
I like the Defiant
>>216790194apparently if you squint hard enough, the cardie hideki is supposedly a stripped-down skeletonized version of the defiant with the iconic cardie tail
For me it's the California class getting shit done.
>>216790129The original Enterprise and its variants are still fantastic. But you also at least gotta show love for the C Concept. Probert really knew how to knock it out of the park.
>>216789529Borg ships are the only ones with a believable design. If you're not regularly entering atmospheres there is no air resistance to deal with, so aerodynamic designs have no value.What you need instead is to minimise exposed surface area and maxi-min the the width, to promote hull integrity and reduce heat loss.So basically you want either spheres or tessellating polyhedra.
>>216790471what an ugly pos
>>216790471I realize that part of the "joke" is that this is a retarded design, but JFC.
>>216789529Ten years ago when i was in college, (shut up) I used to have this autistic fantasy of writing the NEXT next Generation series, called "The Grand Frontier" where the limit of FTL travel has scoped out the galaxy enough that circumnavigating the whole thing only takes one earth year, and the Federation has made peace with the Dominion and the Borg and the Voth that almost all of the galaxy is charted and sorted, so without any new frontier the malaise and decay of emotional state is setting in in the Federation, and they're on the brink of a galactic war until these reality-defying beings called The Trial enter and start fucking with everyone, agitating a need for alliance and systematically eliminating the various militant xenophobic enclave species who either get absorbed and burned by them, or get destroyed BY the Federation by mistake, as part of a big plot of Section 33 to pacify the galaxy and survive a mapped 'world' until one of the captains finishes their maguffin machine and it opens wormhole technology to cross to other galaxies. And the Romulan had a branched off empire deeper in the Beta Quadrant paralleling the Byzantines and to counter a revival of Romulan/Vulcan unity emerged in the Holy Romulan Empire but I never really thought it out beyond 'how much speed would it take to get across the galaxy in six hours' and that was like Warp Red because of how urgent it was and restricted it was because excessive use hit that subspace damage stuff.Anyway that's probably why I didn't do well in college I kept daydreaming and gaming instead of studying and caring about my grades. I never shared any of that with anyone and the four twenty channel is dead so here you go.
>>216790575you want maximum surface area so people can have windows
>>216790799John Eaves designing the Enterprise-E
>>216790633>this is a retarded designIt's basically a galaxied up oberth
>>216790855it's not even close, a galaxied up oberth might actually look decent
farewell for now, good voyage
>>216790833Im glad it didn't end up looking like a turkey, but the D is still a better design
ass backwards
>>216791541Those TNG FX guys must have worked some reallly long hours to get to "eh fuck it" moments like that
>>216791976Shit Concept
>>216790129He also had the idea to retcon the ship as 2000ft long.
>>216792070Until the movies they didn't even know for sure where the engine room was for the TOS Enterprise.
For me, it's the Constellation class.
need more freighters
For me, it’s Excelsior.
>>216792030How about, instead of a shit concept, we had a dick concept?
>>216790672you should probably continue to never share that with anyone, its retarded
>>216792617ZOMG me tooooooooooooooooooooooo
>>216791541Looks like a fucking turtle.
>>216793304Not bad. But hit em with the C.
>>216789529kino
>>216791976>work your ass off through the Academy hoping to get a posting on a prestigious ship>get attached to a fucking Freedom class patrolling the ass end of nowhere charting space farts for the next 8-10 yearsGrim.
>>216793440So you claim to be an expert at fucking turtles, do you?
>>216789529ugly
>>216790194>I like the Defiant
>>216789529Kino ship
>>216794033That's how I know the Galor class looks like a tortoise hemipenis.
