Description

The original Star Trek, despite Kirk's womanizing, and Klingons, and Tribbles, was one of the few SF pieces of media that tried to embody the sense of wonder and optimism of exploring the universe. This is the theme that I always seem to return to when my thoughts go to the Final Frontier. A product of my particular age, perhaps... For more than a year before the release of the Star Trek reboot, the 3D community has seen an abundance of "reimagined" Enterprises. Madkoifish's stood out from that very large crowd to me, in its craftmanship and the skillful melding of its elements. I thank him and Foundation 3D for allowing us to use his model. Rendered in Lightwave 8.5. Thanks for having a look! -Tom

Interesting design - part TMP, part TOS, and some of the same design direct the new Enterprise clearly took - though this ended in a better resolution, IMHO.

Funny how this remodelled enterprise is very similar to the new movies one (though I like the wider and lower naucelle supports on this one more then the movie's tall ones). I just posted my rebuild of the Enterprise. Mine's definately not going to be winning any accuracy or true to the franchise awards. I couldn't be bothered to texture her right, and just built a armoured Enterprise (on the premise that an explore has to be among the toughest of all... out on its own, and never knowning what it'll run into. As opposed to a military reason.) Cheers
