Technically both the Prime and JJ Universes all connect to ENT. The timeline didn't split until Nero's incursion in 2233.

Technically, it can be argued that the timeline was also split "somewhat" by the presence of the Enterprise-E during First Contact, and the subsequent Borg remains at the north pole (as referenced/seen during ENT's 'Regeneration' episode). ;)

But to remain on topic, I look forward to seeing this bad boy textured, no matter which way is decided. Both Kelvin-style and NX-style would look suitable on her.

this is gonna be interesting, cause this needs an epic texture to go with it. and the guys that do epic textures are swamped...

You saying I can't texture, KCS?

No one does cause Aeries first ship, the Mithra, has been going back and forth design wise for years now.

Yes. Yes you should.

Just to keep things interesting, I'm gonna request two more names (Since there are three texture variants). Of course, there's the NX-style USS Bonaventure NX-402 (is this a decent number ya think?) Now I just need an ISS designation and a normal NCC designation.

Edit: Also, I'm begun editing and mapping her piece by piece... which is really not my strong point at all, but I guess I gotta get some practice in somehow XD

Dude your ship is pure awesome!!!!

great work!!
As far as the name Bonaventure is named after the Catholic Saint Bonaventure. Perhaps the other ships in the class could be named after other famous saints/religious figures? Idk just an idea.....

It looks so sleak, so it needs a sleek and sexy name. I move for the USS Amy Pond. :p

For a new class of ship, I would think Starfleet would probably have a more even-numbered registry. Something like NX-400: USS Bonaventure.

As for suggestions, i'd say something like:

NX-400 / NCC-400: USS Bonaventure
NX-400 / NCC-400: ISS Mussolini (mirror Bonaventure)
NCC-452: USS Leonardo da Vinci / USS Leonardo / USS da Vinci

Not sure what to name the 3rd ship, but I figured Leonardo da Vinci would be a good choice since he has appeared a few times in Star Trek, and fits into keeping the ship names based on famous Italian people. I used the number NCC-452, since da Vinci was born in 1452. I figure Benito Mussolini would be a good choice for a mirror universe Bonaventure, since a dictator would be pretty much completely opposite of sainthood.

Although I suppose in a universe where good people are bad, and bad people can either be good, or worse. Maybe Saint Bonaventure, wasn't really a saint, and Mussolini might've been a good guy

Nihilus · « **Reply #33 on:** January 20, 2011, 06:00:51 PM »

Famous Italians... So how about Raffaello da Urbino? USS da Urbino NCC-452. Actually, wouldn't it be more right to have the registry NCC-0452 since the Kelvin's registry added the zero? The Kelvin was NCC-0514.

King Class Scout · « **Reply #34 on:** January 20, 2011, 06:21:29 PM »

Mussolini??! *laughs* the only thing that would work right on that ship would be the Chronometers!

nah, name the TE after a Medici...or ISS Machiavelli

USSes?

Milano
Napoli
Lambroghini or Ferarri

Alcyone
Bondoni
Petrillo

what was the name of the first united italy's king? that might work.

Hehe, thanks for the suggestions boys, girls, and those of undetermined gender. I'll take all those names into consideration.

Here's a render of the first 10 minutes of texture work. I'm a complete and total NOOB at this crud, so please forgive me for bad quality textures!

Lionus · « **Reply #37 on:** January 21, 2011, 02:44:33 PM »

That's pretty good. Could be a lot worse.

here, have a cookie of motivation.

Dalek · « **Reply #38 on:** January 21, 2011, 05:06:22 PM »

A perfect blend between NX era and Kelvin textures. Keep it going.

FarShot · « **Reply #39 on:** January 21, 2011, 05:06:46 PM »

Make the inside part of those textures a bit smaller so it fits within the ring. It'll be perfect then. ;)
