Yah its not bad. Change the color scheme and it'd make a fairly good alien ship.

You think so? Looks to me like two Steamrunners mashed together

That's what I'm thinking. Like someone just mirrored a steamrunner and grafted on the lower hull of an Akira.

...and that's where baby Steamrunners come from, boys and girls.

The first one looks like a normal ship, but someone just couldn't render the angles of the hull correctly.

Could be but the problem is that that ship supose to be starfleet.

What's so wrong with the Akayazi? I wouldn't call it one of the age's great beauties (thats Lady Valerian... internet cookie to anyone who gets that novel reference), but it's certainly not bad.

It has the rough shape of a starfleet ship but it has none of the styling. The center section of the saucer is too steep. Like a 1950's flying saucer. The front cut back is too deep and steeply angled and I don't recall seeing a purple glowing deflector before. The fore/aft struts are too spindly, the nacelle pylons are curved unadorned plates which don't look right for the apparently TOS-ish time period.

That feature may have been taken from Franz Joseph's Federation class dreadnought. But I agree, the ship does look bad.

The first isn't too bad (but considering what we've seen thats not saying much). The second one, could look awesome as an alien ship (with diff colors of course), but as a Fed ship, its an abomination.

Hows about this one.

Oh wait, thats canon. Still, IMO worse than 90% of this thread.



Here's one.

Not a fan of the hole in saucer look. Seems like wasted space.


Fan made E-G. :worried:
