| Re: OMG! Design the next USS ENTERPRISE (Offical Contest) I've been keeping an eye on this thread (and thanks for the link elsewhere Slow) and have to say that's a very impressive piece of work Fuzzy Modem. I was never particularly fond of the arrowhead "saucer" section designs (probably because I just never took a shine to Voyager), but I do particularly like the combination of sleekness and bulk. Let's face it, it has to look sleek to look cool, but the bulk of the mid-section gives it realism as a functional ship with plenty of living/working space. Great job. |

| Re: OMG! Design the next USS ENTERPRISE (Offical Contest) I've read through the rules maybe a dozen times now, and I'm confident that the "Assets" that may not be used elsewhere are existing Star Trek assets, like if you wanted to use a sovereign for scale. The "Submission Image" must be created originally for the this contest specifically, but the rules say nothing about posting it, or wips elsewhere afterword. Now that the submission period has closed, I can restore my wip images to this thread. I couldn't find them all, but you should still be able to see the design evolve. Thanks again for all your help  |

| Re: OMG! Design the next USS ENTERPRISE (Offical Contest) Hey- can you guys see where the all the torpedo launchers, phasers and thrusters are? Like, do you think it would be obvious to the casual observer, even in the small version? I did what I could to prep for it, but that jpg compression really kicked my ass.

i think the best way to show them off would be to show them in use if you can. Last edited by pyan; 19th January 2011 at 05:21 PM. Reason: Enabled "Quote" BB code | |

| Re: OMG! Design the next USS ENTERPRISE (Offical Contest) Thats a real shame, mind you, they don't seem to stand out greatly on most of the entries, so i think if the nice Mr. judge knows his onions he will know they are there. |

| Re: OMG! Design the next USS ENTERPRISE (Offical Contest) Hey Man My names Ash, and I currently love playing Star Trek Online. I've been keenly watching the contest day by day eager to see which ship could be the next Enterprise. (Im a big ship geek). I must admit I loved Chris Maddens when it was first realesed and I really wanted it to be the next ship...until you realesed yours. It's amazing. I love it. I really hope it is next in line to be the next flagship of the federation. I joined this forum just to check out your work on the design. I have voted for the past few weeks, and now its in the lead. I wish you the best of luck mate. Ash |

The past couple days I've been sleepless with the... weight of the possibility. It helps a lot to know that there are players who think it would work in the expanded universe.Hey (shameless plug) You should read my webcomic and tell me what you think: Crossover -since you joined the forum and all | |

| Re: OMG! Design the next USS ENTERPRISE (Offical Contest) Well done indeed, FM - thoroughly deserved. Here's hoping the judges see sense and confirm the popular vote - it'd be a travesty if they picked any of the others. |
