The rear part of those warps are ugly. The overall design looks like it belongs in the Enterprise C era right next to the Romulan Melak.

Call it early era trial cool warps to come soon i hope :)  I see this thing cool with vorcha warps a bit moded but theme the same. Each has their own in design theme.

The warps are part of the reason I thought it would make a great transitional ship. It has some lines in the general shape and the hull plating that look very TNG yet the shape of the command pod the nacelles, and the hangar are more TMPish. I kind of like the nacelles too, very traditional yet very different with glowy bits which again is more late TMP through TNG-like. I'd love a crack at a late TMP texture, I obviously don't possess the knowledge currently to model it and I don't see it as a likely candidate for 1st project so I'm elated to see AV start building her!  :)

For Klink the shown warps fit for many eras, but end result a moded vorcha theme
fit the best for last production tmp variants. I can picture a few carrier and freighter options also, and targ help the Klinks a hospital ship .  Just my opinion. :crazy2:

That's just because Klingon Carriers and freighters are few and far between :P

Fasa , fanon and sfb fanon have some 2d works , I have created some of them but lack of textures ect and blah prevents my release. Kf has released one.  Other Fan works have some also but not popular.

Good klinks are not as easy as they seem. There's a lot of FASA designs that make me cringe, and even more fan ones. This is a good example of the opposite, especially if it is taken in the direction of a Melak/Ambie-era craft.

I find I'm missing the shoulders of the D7 on this design, if that makes any sense. The pointy bits at the front of the main hull before it went concave and connected to the neck.

Too much Vor'cha. Not enough D7.

I see what you mean, and I partially agree with you - part of the reason why I hope it turns out as a Post-TMP Pre-TNG design.

That translates as Lost Era, yes?  It'd be good to see something Klingon from that period.. the only Lost Era ships we've seen pretty well are the Ambassador, Melak, and refits of TMP stuff (Obereth, Miranda, etc).
