What should I do next? (Out of the following): - Constitution I - D'deridex - Vor'cha - K'Vort - D7 - Galor
The following are on my To-Do list, but they will require a LOT of work. The Ex's would be done from the ground up, major mods to make a Defiant, Cheyenne and New Orleans from scratch, Negh'Var needs new wings from scratch, Danube needs diagrams to work from. - Excelsior (I and II) - Defiant - Cheyenne - New Orleans - Negh'Var - Danube

*sniff* Th-those are so BEAUTIFUL! *breaks down into tears* Okay. *sniff* I think I'm over it. I'd personally like to see the Constitution I, Excelsiors I & II, and the New Orleans. But that's just me.

Adam, as usual you do remarkable work. I wish I had some of that talent. As for what I'd like to see next, I'd like to the Galor and the D'Deridex. I think those are two awesome ships and would look wonderful. From the second list, I'd like to see you take a stab at the New Orleans and the Cheyenne. We really don't have all that much to gaze at on those Galaxy derivatives.

No, I'm saying quality of work. They just toss out a 'schematic' that often has many errors in it, and can be hard to make out. These are clean, high quality and much nicer than the multi-colored stuff they like to do.

Do you veen KNOW how much I would give to see a clean, precise cutaway drawing instead of those annoying MSD's? And schematics! Ugh! Don't get me started on those!! They try to make them all colorful and picture-like, which in my opinion doesn't work. I want clean lines in black ink on white paper. I want DETAIL!! A la Avenger-Class Blueprints.

Talking of ship schematics - Page 4 of the TNG Tech Manual showing the Ent-D deck schematics - deck 4 (front of main hanger area, last black mark) why is there a car there, then nearer to the centre of the same deck there is what looks like a duck, and even further forward is an old aeroplane. Also, just below and to the right of the car is what appears to be a mouse?
Was someone bored when they drew these things, and where's the cat to chase the mouse?

Inside jokes done by Mike Okuda. Tension reliever possibly after doing all those display planels for the pilot episode. They're all there on the oringinal MSD from the Engineering set station.

Well, there's no cat because if the mouse was eaten, the ship would be powerless. Mike Okuda says that the mouse is the ship's true power system.
The airplane is Gene Roddenberry's WW II bomber. And I believe there is an Apollo space capsule in there too.

I think I'll do the Con I and maybe get the Galor done, then I'll work on Klingons.
The N.O. and Chey would be great projects, and possible quite simple, depending on how much I can salvage and steal from the Galaxy and Nebula diagrams. I DID make a N.O. using a Galaxy diagram about a year and a half ago, but the next one would have to be more detailed. Cheyenne shouldn't be so bad...
Of course, the biggest projects would be the Defiant and Excelsior Classes. While there are SO many diagrams of them around, none are entirely accurate. I started the Excelsior about a year ago, but so far, only the Aft view is complete.
