I know a little about Genetics, I'm doing a molecular genetics Biochem subject this semester...Actually they named the 'puters in the biochem labs different names like Van Leeuwenhoek SP?? and Okazaki and Fischer etc... I thought they were apt names for vessels of exploration Fits in with the whole discovery thing  The original line drawings - they suck and I'm going to do better versions so... hang on!

Hm... The Newton and Okazaki look impressed, while the others look raised. Of course, it's possible for them to be the other way around, depending upon how your brain interprets the light source, but, regardless, those two are not the same as the others.And, where's the Discovery mentioned in "The Squire of Gothos"? Was it a pre-refit version of the Okazaki? Or do you just not believe in it? :-) ------------------ "Can't shake the devil's hand and say you're only kidding." -They Might Be Giants, "Your Racist Friend"

well here is the original line 'kitbashing' for the Okazaki and the Newton respectively http://www.uq.net.au/~zzarayfi/tootrue.jpg and http://www.uq.net.au/~zzarayfi/CHIM.jpg I kitbashed them from parts from Doug Drexlers drawings... I'm going to do my own line drawings of all of them soon. So they are kit bashes - but the Newton won't be this is Amb parts and this is Olympic parts - it'll be more 'blended' something you can't do with the cut and paste kitbashes... it just an idea of the outline... like those foam mockups they did of starships when they still used motion control photography for the effects on Star Trek Andrew ------------------ "Who wouldn't be the one you love Who wouldn't stand inside your love." - Stand Inside Your Love, The Smashing Pumpkins

Hey! My last name's Okazaki! But I guess you didn't name your ship after me. And no, I'm not related to the Okazaki of fragment fame (I was asked that about a million times in school).------------------ When you're in the Sol system, come visit the Starfleet Museum
