Fellow Modeler Sean reagan built this beast- check out his other ships in comparison.
I'm not usualy one for "uber-ships" but that's just a heck of a (giant) ship- I could see it as a really deep space explorer- like to the other side of the Beta quadrant or to chart the galactic rim, on a ten year mission with no backup support and with repair/fabrication facilities in the ship itself.
Now that is a series I could get behind- five years outward-bound encountering new species and making fiends and enemies and the following up with them on the way back to the Federation

That design should have been submitted for the "Design/Kitbash the Titan" contest.
What parts did he use to build the model? Other than the five (or are there six?) Galaxy-type nacelles, all I can pick out are three Galaxy saucers (all blended into each other) and the dorsal half of Intrepid saucer for the �ber-ship.

The only problem with this as the Titan is that he rules stated that the Titan is something like 350-400 meters long.
This is probably past 1.5 km.
I'll post ventral views once Sean adds more pics online.

Well yeah... along with the Daedalus. Then again that's what I've been reduced to watching Enterprise for: the CGI.

And the sexy wom...er...people. Sexy people.
I cant wait to finally see season 4 (it out on DVD in November I think) so I can stop avoiding the Enterprise forum (while it lasts).
I really did like that show all around.

Yeah, I know. I was making a subtle jab at the winning design for the Titan and the "rules" for it.
I can't tell what the secondary hull is made from. It vaguely looks like part of an Ambassador class secondary hull, but I'm leaning more towards thinking it's custom-built piece.

I think it might be the secondary hull from the 537th sclae Enterprise A model that has been partly chopped and blended in.

Er, so... Wow. That's... big. No, I just gotta say that it's just U-G-L-Y, it ain't got no alibi. Maybe if the aft saucer didn't bevel back in to make a heart(ish) shape, but no. A big problem would be, as Dukhat mentioned, the scale of the nacelles-- but also the number.

It's not practical or plausable in any way, and that heart-shaped saucer is tough to love, but like the Grand Canyon or the 80' tall Jackalope, you have to admire the scale of it. The models the size of a gutiar!
Still better than the kitbash they chose for the Titan though.
I could see this in use in a Mirror Universe where the Terran Empire never fell- kinda their version of the Regentcy One.

Well, the link for the ship picture is the link Jason gave at the beginning of this post...or did you mean the link to the photo of my top-heavy ex? Sorry, but Flare rules don't allow me to post porn here.

Well I just saw the winning design for Titan... I wonder if someone actually went with the abandoned version of the Endeavour from ST:FC.
