Love it!!

Since you're considering so many variants, why not a version with phaser strips to fit it into the 24th Century? It could be like the Akira's sister ship. :p

Even though this is a cool idea. I feel that if you think about it in a somewhat logical way, the Akira class design IMO was inspired from the NX class design. Or another way of putting it, the Akira was Starfleets R&D teams' tribute to the the NX class.

I'd like to put in my 2 cents and say keep this new project real and on course with "NX" style ships of that era.

Awesome Wiley!

The NX class is one of my favorite designs. I miss Enterprise, I wish the show could have had a full run.

I'm with you Moed. The canceled her just when the show was getting good.

Can't wait to see your take on her Wiley. The NX Pack that we have has been a good bunch of ships to have but they're 5 years old now and can't think of anyone other then you who would do them justice!

It doesn't matter if the NX Pack is 5 years old... they're still fantastic at any age. Wiley's will just be "different".

Here is my next project along with the Sona ship. This is a rough render, and I am just getting the basic shapes created, then I'll add the smaller details. I don't know what the final poly count would be, because I still have weld some verticies and clean up areas of the mesh. I've been working on this for the last 2 weeks in my free time, so don't expect any large updates soon.

It's brand spankin' new!

Make the ATLANTIS - PLS!!!

lol Nx-05 the one in m sig

The nx class has been slated as the worst design Star Trek ship but I personally love it as well as the tv series. The NX pack at the moment is amazing and one of my faves, now made even better with Luroks new NX bridge pack. But lets face it it never does any harm for any ship to get a bit of Coyote treatment

Well the NX Pack Texture was just taken from Official model renders and edited,

Wiley, will you be making a texture from scratch?

Lol I don't think it's very logical...

would be great to see a DS9-era version of the NX class (with phaser strips, modern nacelles, etc), as completely uncanon and silly as that sounds...

or would that be the Akira class, actually? lol

LOL,,,Exactly, bend the pylons upwards and,,, Ta-Da!

I recall that it was the accusation at the time, they ripped off the Akira design. i have to admit, it disappointed me personally when it first leaked out, It didn't strike me as a good design for an Enterprise, but I have begun to like it.

Looking great on the NX, she's off to a good start.

Yep, as close to the renders as possible.

I don't plan on making any DS9 versions of the NX- it wouldn't feel right. Also, before the design history between the Akira/NX goes out of hand- that should be put in another thread.

actually no, I'm pretty sure Mark did them from scratch on the NX pack. It was C2X's that was ripped from promo pics.

Not that I want to perpetuate the Akira/NX-01 comparison talk but couldn't you believe that from an In-Universe perspective the Akira was inspired by the NX-01? Back to the model in question however I say it's an excellent start and I look forward to seeing this one finished.

Yeah, I was following the NX Pack since they first created a thread on BCU... God, that was a long while ago.

I'll update with pictures when the time is available.
