I think I have enough votes. I just wanted a general opinion and thanks for that.

It looks like people like versions 1 and 3 with a slight bit of 4. I'll do a few more sketches of possible variants combining the versions. I think the recent voting should be removed so that I can create a separate thread/poll of the ship's components.

Why would calling it the Enterprise-F matter and why/what good would trying to agigate anyone serve? None of these ships are canon so it doesn't matter if names are taken (Not that it'd matter even if they were canon), just as long as the ships all point to unique files.

I've gotta say, as of late it seems a common trend for everyone to throw in names for ships, and while, yes, people do at times ask for some inspiration, it seems extermely common for people to jump to handing out names before the modder is even ready or at that stage of development... Anyway...

Wiley, I'm loving this design. Sharp, sleek and elegant without a doubt. I for one will be keeping a close eye on it (Who am I kidding? I've been following your thread as far back as I can remember. )

Just a thought

I've now added the new deflector, and weapon arrays. I have a few minor areas to add polys to, mainly around the command level area to make it rounder. Overall, it is currently 4.7k polys.

Looking good! So is this pretty much the final mesh?

WileyCoyote · « **Reply #2384 on:** August 05, 2010, 07:08:19 PM »

Pretty much, but I still have to tweak the area around the bridge.

Fine looking ship you got there Wiley, I see design elements from at least 5 different ships: Achilles, Akria, Dauntless, Norway, and Prometheus. This baby looks It could glide through slipstream and unleash hell In a moments notice. Is there a shuttle bay on this beast?

JamesTiberiusKirk · « **Reply #2387 on:** August 06, 2010, 05:31:19 AM »

im not so sure about the deflector. imo an akira-styled deflector would have been better. but ill wait til its ready, you never know

The shuttlebay is located top-aft, between the pylons.

That could have looked better, but we have seen it so many times before. We are too comfortable of what we already know. I wanted to do something new.

I love the look of this ship. Definatley looks like what Federation starship Design would evolve to.

Totally agree with you here on this, Wiley. I think the deflector looks great. You could always split it. Lol

Anyhow, I love this baby, I wish I had come up with it.

Well... you could always design something which was inspired by this design. As in this is Starfleet's first Quantum Slipstream Ship and they will most likely design and build more

I named and started texturing the ship yesterday. The ship's name is the USS Proteus NX-100806, Proteus-class, ~~the second ship would be the Valiant~~. The texturing is based off of the Aventine. The ship features new single person escape pods that are not as bulky as the earlier versions. Enjoy.

bear in mind DJ's USS Valiant; name might cause a slight confusion?

WileyCoyote · « **Reply #2396 on:** August 07, 2010, 05:35:37 PM »

Good point. I'll keep it as only Proteus.

whoa...who's the Hot Rod fan at this ship's yard? about time someone does something fancy with the paint on a fed ship.

Wow, you'll never lose her in a fleet!

That thing's color scheme actually reminds me a bit of the Sentinel from Star Trek Invasion. Brilliant!
