Masao Okazaki, a Trek fan for many years, contacted me some time ago and sent me images, specs and descriptions of Pre-TOS starships. I liked them so much that I created a whole new website: The Starfleet Museum

"Hallo Bernd". I finally managed it to visit this forum more often than usually. I'm now even to respond to comments. What a great improvement! :->
You now I'm not a great fan of entirely invented fan-fiction, but these diagrams of the Pre-TOS-ships are really wonderful. Very accurate and designed with lots of details. Hope Masao and you continue your great work!

I'm sure there will be several updates and improvements in the near future. Masao has already started to design ship logos, for instance.
We are considering to extend the museum to a real project in which more individuals could be involved. For instance, we are looking for a Pre-TOS uniform style.
BTW, I just noticed there is no hint that all the stuff is entirely non-canon. Maybe it should be added as a footnote.

I like it! Do you suppose he (Masao) would be willing to look at my pre-TOS designs and render a few in his (infinitely superior) style?
I especially like the detailed descriptions of the vessels he provides.

Oh, yes, the nacelle is missing indeed. I hope Masao can fix it soon.
BTW, we have an idea to make the SF Museum a kind of project which could feature stuff from other people as well. Ich someone has suggestions or requests feel free to contact Masao (bottom of the SFM page).
Baloo: I hope Masao doesn't read this but I know he is quite fast and efficient in drawing.
