Hi am trying to design an "Enterprise" era starship the "Endeavour NX-03"
Ok it looks a little bit like the NX-01:

What do you think?

Very cool, although I must make the standard refrain of "more views please" before I can really sum up my feelings.

Is that a Constitutionesque single hull or an P-38esque catamaran arrangement below the saucer?

That's really cool, I like it. But wouldn't 'NX-03', in the case of 'Enterprise', refer to an 'NX' class ship, meaning it would be precisely the same class and configuration of the Enterprise?

...Unless of course something new about the registry/class scheme has been revealed in a recent episode of Enterprise which I haven't yet seen.

Hi.
Here is the top-view of the ship.
I wanted first to use the conni style Hull
but i used the catamaran style because i thought that this middle thing of the Enterprise(between the two nacelle, which is similar to the akira torpedo launchers) must be stay alone.

Ah... now I can say with a bit more certainty that I like it... [Smile]

If I may make a suggestion, it's that you might fiddle with the warp field governor pod in the middle so it's a little more unique than the NX-01. Maybe slide it forward of where the nacelle pylons join the catamarans?

Even if it is counterproductive: I think it still looks too much like a distorted NX-01. You should either make the double pylons exactly as on NX-01, or considerably different. Maybe it could be NY-class or something like that.

Hi.
No, its not counterproductive!
Thats reason that i post my ships here.
People like you should say to me: "Lobo thats good" or "Lobo thats bad" or "if you change this...".

All of my ships are only prototypes. If you look on the Voyager, the Enterpise D or E. The designer haven't competed this ships in one day, like my ships! They have taken a few months to complete these.

Here is a new version.

Lobo

I know, it looks still like NX-01. But i think that the look of Enterprise is a typical design flow of ships in this era.

I was expecting something more on the lines of a retro-Steamrunner... Being NX-03 and all. [Big Grin]

Speaking specifically to the rego number: If it's a different class than Enterprise, it shouldn't be NX anything. Enterprise is an NX class ship. So this class should be NY or NZ class, or something like that. Anything that starts with NX should look just like Enterprise.

I do like the design though, for the most part.

Ok ok i know it was a bad idea to make this ship.
The rego.is now NY-03.
