[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] <blockquote>"5.Are there any designs that were displayed on diagrams or consuls or charts, or any small models of ships that we have now model for,and what do they look like?(The existence of these is implied in the encyclopedia and in other books.)"</blockquote> Well, the Wolf359 ships, first of all. As mentioned, you can find them at Bernd's site. There are also a few from computer displays, like the SS [i]Mariposa[/i] (if you like pre-Starfleet ships), an Orion ship and some sort of tanker (FASA ships that bear those designations, but weren't actually named on the show; just their diagrams were shown), and the [i]Hermes[/i] and [i]Ptolemy[/i] classes (Franz Joseph ships that were used on displays in ST2, but not actually named on screen). <blockquote>"4.What does the studio model of the Deneva that was briefly seen look like?"</blockquote> Most likely just the [i]Merchantman[/i], or some other oft-reused model. It wasn't seen visibly enough to tell, really, and we haven't found out from anyone who actually worked on it, either. <blockquote>"3.Is the Renaissance class vessal seen in the comic book based of a parmount design that was seen on a consul or the like.(Does anybody have a copy of that book and if so could they scan in that ship,I understand that it is very similar to the ASDB design.)"</blockquote> I'm guessing the comic people made it up. <blockquote>"2.Does a rigel class starship exist for Best of Both Worlds?(I personly believe that they thourgh in a quickly made design.)"</blockquote> No. The original dialogue was supposed to include the [i]Chekov[/i], the [i]Springfield[/i]-class ship. But the producers thought the reference was too "cute", or something, so they changed it later to [i]Tolstoy[/i]. Okuda just made up the name [i]Rigel[/i] to go w/ it, since the ship itself didn't exist, except in that line of dialogue. <blockquote>"1.What does the model of the apollo class starship look like? From conventions I understand that it was in a scene from DS9 Embisary that was not included but that the model was used later in the DS9 series.I also understand that it is a combination of Ambasador parts without the lower hull but that it is not quite like the internet version."</blockquote> I don't know about the "Emissary" stuff, but certain evidence suggests that the Vulcan ships seen in "Unification II" were [i]Apollo[/i]-class. It's a subject of much dispute. [/QB][/QUOTE]
