USS Determination Final Design
« on: March 11, 2010, 10:46:09 AM »
I was skecthing ideas for a Post-Dominion War ship in my notebook the other day, and in my Computer Drafting Class I started drawing up this. For your viewing pleasure I present the start of the USS Determination, Darkstar Class. I plan for this to be a Constitution Class Post Dominion War Refit.

:P I like the design, it's very... "Out there".

...Probably not, but the number I get(379.6m) could be considered ?original intent,? a term that I think I will be using from now on, and ?canon? be damned.

:funny oh snap... bang me into head with baseball bat ... those would really look cool slaped into some cool bird (TOS-TMP era Romulans)

but looking at them as they are feds then they look like Akira evo nacelles or something like that ;)

I actually got some inspiration from taking a look at STO ships as well as your PDW Excelsior Bones :)

Well here's the ship in its full view. It's about 95% complete, just need some impulse engines on the back of the saucer and some windows.

I'm convinced I've seen a Connie variant on BC Files that looks almost like that. Imma finds it.
