Of Interest to Connie Enthusiasts...
« on: January 20, 2005, 12:06:28 am »
...here's a little treat:

I just wanted to share.

The only thing I would like to see changed are the warp nacelles as they look a bit mismatched with the new overall design.

Any other thoughts?

It doesn't look as sleek and streamlined as it once was.  Is it supposed to resemble it's pre-refitted looks a bit more?  A poor job if it was.  Or maybe resembling the Asia-class? *shrug*

Oh, found this "evolution schematic" on Google one day last year, by the way.

Oh, and I'm browsing the index directory the picture came from.  This pic compares the ship schematic pic you linked to up top to a TOS version of the ship schematic.

Now that I'm thinking about it, perhaps it can, with some modifications of course to make it more similar to Constitutiton-class.

The "Evolution Schematic" I linked to sparked my interest with the third ship schematic in the pic.  It looked more like a refit that kept the basic shape of the TOS Constitution-class but is nonetheless a TMP refit.

    The only really big change is the secoundary hull and a little of the primary other than it looks nice.

Thanks for posting that additional link. I like 'em both. It's a pair of variations I've never seen before until yesterday.
