[QUOTE]Originally posted by CaptainMike: [QB] BTW.. ask Drexler if he approves of the class names chosen by fandom.. 'Shelley' and 'Medusa', etc... If he gives those his OK, maybe we can find ourselves at least contributing a little bit to canon. :-) Oh.. and tell him he's welcome here anytime. onto the ships: [b]U.S.S. [i]Elkins[/i][/b]: The Intrepid/Constitution variant. How far off have we decided the scaling of the nacelles is? Perhaps a creatively tweaked diagram would make this ship seem more likely. As to the registries, 74121 or 74101, I hope that resizing the files didnt lose data that would be crucial in enhancing the photos. [b]U.S.S. [i]Centaur[/i][/b]: I wanna see this shuttlebay. And the alternate name if we can enhance it. [b]U.S.S.[/b] *ahem*[b] [i]Raging Queen, Shelley[/i]-class variant[/b]: Are we writing off the lack of a U.S.S. on the hull as it not being in Starfleet? Perhaps some sort of Federation militia vessel? might help explain the.. creative.. name. So we have two variants.. the modification we refer to as the [i]Curry[/i] was actually seen on screen and then there is the rotated nacelle alternate pylon arrange labeled [i]Raging Queen[/i]. As diagrams go, taking the TM ship and applying the color scheme will make the off-scaled nacelles look better (id be willing to accept them this time around, if they were presented as non-Const. nacelles). Perhaps they relabeled the ship when it was slated for a closeup, as to avoid offending any Raging Queens in the audience. [b][i]Medusa[/i]-class[/b]: Excelsior-variant. I'm not sure where to start on this one.. couldnt a connie nacelle pylon be modified to go straight by removing the curved bottom? Whether the connie pylons or the exxie pylons are double, either way it looks better upside down from the diagram we have now [b][i]Constitution[/i]-variant[/b]: Yeah, lets see how far apart the nacelles lie. [b]U.S.S. [i]Yeager[/i][/b]: I'm perfectly willing to accept the FC [i]Yeager[/i] was destroyed and a new [i]Yeager[/i] was built.. and since im a Prometheus 5xxxx registry proponent, I'm fine with the 6xxxx registry, natch (what was the FC [i]Yeager[/i]'s reg anywho.. does this predate it or is it just close to it.. i forget if thats the one that was mistakenly listed as 8xxxx or what we decided).. OK.. until i see anything, I at least have a couple of names for the Galactopedia. oh, BTW, the Galactopedia can now be found at http://galactopedia.captainmike.org .. buying a domain is the best toy a kid can get for himself.
