I was wondering if anyone had worked on making any detailed 2D schematic renderings or 3D renderings of the Phase II variant of the Constitution class.
Any links or images would be gratefully appreciated.
One of the people involved in producing Ships of the Star Fleet Vol 1 was lurking on these boards awhile back, under the forum name Aridas. Some of the designs in that book were obviously influenced by the Phase II design. Maybe he's still around.

Damn straight it is. There's always some novel-thumping evangelist coming along and talking endlessly about how only TOS is true Star Trek and everything else is shit. And the mods are all power-tripping Nazis.

Since the model was never finished, I'd say the chances are slim to none that there are "detailed" schematics. The best you could hope for are probably whatever plans were being used to build the (never completed) Phase II ship seen in the book on Phase II.

All the Message Board politics keep me well away from that board- even when my models are linked in or discussed (and that's how I joined Flare).
Mabye when I meet Andy Probert in May, I'll makeup a Flare invitation for him. ...or I could become notorious by lopping off his hands! That'd kill Trek but quick!

Phht. I spend too much time online as it is.

I am looking more for something fan-generated... apparently, in doing some more research, there was a thread here about 2 or 3 years ago where something was posted, but all of the links are dead.

Well, then you should try to get your hands on Ships of the Star Fleet, Volume One and/or the Heavy Cruiser Evolution Chart. It has schematics of the Phase II model, and of the variation seen on some early production work (the 'poster' ship). The first one is called the Constitution (II) class, the second is the known as Tikopai in fandom circles.

Got'em. I am more looking for something along the lines of color computer based imagery in gif or jpeg format. Probably would have helped if I had specified that originally.
