Nice work, Wes. It's really cool that you chose that angle. From this perspective, you can really see the way the nacelles are different from the Akira. Plus, you get this cool angle for the sensor dish at the fore of the saucer. Overall, your render looks really reminiscent of the original Constitution class. Well, minus the secondary hull, of course.

Regarding an earlier comment... I would assume Wes wrote "proteus" on the image so no-one can take it and claim it as their own. That's not really uncommon.

Is it me or any of you has noticed that the Akiraprise nacelles are out of proportion, even the akira has them bigger. In TOS the Enterprise had bid nacceles beacuse the technology couldn't make them, smaller, them comes this new ship making the tos enterpise look out of shape and antiquated and has nacelles smaller than the ones of the "voyeur"

Besides, nacelle size has never seemed to have anything to do with tecnology.
The Ent-A and Ent-D engines were the same size. But the Excelsior's are a bit bigger, and the Sovereign's are MUCH bigger. Voyager's are tiny.
There's no correlation.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Nacelle size may have something to do with hull geometry. but that would explain the Nebula's.
Anyway... I have another view of the mesh.. this time the back.
And the original:
The question is... what should the bottom look like? I know there are already more models being made with diffrent bottoms.. but what do you think is the most realistic?
