Finally got a scanner. Now, I can't draw on the computer to save my life, but I'm not too bad at drawing by hand. So, I finally got around to designing the Relativity-H from Series ?.
Yeah, it looks like the Defiant. It's meant to. I mathematically hybridized the Defiant (weighted 2/3) and the Wells (weighted 1/3) to come up with the basic design, which was kinda fun since I haven't been able to use my math skills for anything Trek-related since my Voyager-distance calculations. The nose is a bit pointier than the Defiant's, the front is more elongated, the nacelles are swept back some, and back is squattier (not even sure if that's a word... )

Nice. Very "Spaceflight Chronology"-ish (try saying that out loud).

I'll be darned. It does look like a Tiki, doesn't it? I guess I didn't see it because I only drew half the ship, scanned it, and then flipped it for the other half. Most of the face is functional, though. The "mouth" is the bridge, the "eyes" are the temporal drive (or at least what is presumed to be the temporal drive from the Wells class), and the "ears" are the hyperwarp nacelles.
One thing I want to mention about the nacelles: You'll notice a somewhat elongated 29th Century Starfleet insignia on the sides of them (you can only see half from the top). These glow blue like the sides of some other Starfleet nacelles. I don't know if that sort of effect has ever been done on another ship, as I'm not a big ship guy, but it seemed to me that might be a nice touch.
