Best Fan-Ships

Since it's referred to as a testbed I'd assume its so the ship has something to fall back on if the ring nacelle doesn't work out. Though since the Vulcans have apparently used them for a while I don't see the purpose.

That and one would think they'd have a chase ship in case things go pear shaped.

Just looks to much like the artist is trying to incorporate ENT era tech into "TNG" era ships

Both ships are made by the same author so i liked the test bed idea but loking at the dates i see something wrong, the test bed has later launch date.

Atlantic-class Runabout by Mark Rademaker

[Nickswitz]

I like that Runabout a lot, very original, but very good...

[Aaron]

It's pretty slick and it looks like a space ship rather then a bus with bits of sprue stuck on willy nilly..

[Tyyr]

What is the cylinder it got skewered with's point though?

[Nickswitz]

Where the ski is?

That is a turret mount if you look closely...

I'm not overly keen on the spherical nacelle design, however it is a very original and starship like design. i like it. I think it would be better served by a pair of close to the hull nacelles (like the Defiant's) or maybe a quartet of them. But thats purely my opinion.

Yes, maybe like Data's ship from Insurrction.
I would like to see other angles and some spects so we can judge better.

[Tyyr]

If it had conformal nacelles I'd like it. Even if you say its using Vulcan style warp nacelles they're still oriented the wrong direction.

I don't know.......I'm not feeling it so much, but if you asked me I couldn't tell you why.

The JJPrise TMP refit by BCC user Farshot

All the attempts that I've seen to make a refit JJprise look rather bad to me. Maybe the JJprise is just so awesome IU that it won't need a major refit.

[Tyyr]

I think that's a pretty decent interpretation of the refit JJ-prise.

I don't think the TMP-style grilles work well with the rounded nacelles - in fact, all the refitted features look to me like they were tacked on as an afterthought. If a major refit were going to be a part of the new timeline, I think it would have made more sense to start off with more of a TOS-styled ship and make the one we saw the refit version.

Now for a really awesome fan ship, some guy made a JJprise-styled Sovereign.
