Brilliant class starship - more views!

Some more views of my Brilliant Class design.  I'm in the process of refining the model (built using Sketchup) with a view to pulling blueprints from it and building a physical model.

The overall shapes are where I want them to be.  Engine nacelles and pylons are complete except for minor greebles.  Engineering is next in line for attention as I detail the shuttle bay and cargo area.  Lots of tidy up needed to make sure fillets terminate properly and to add all of the surface detail needed on a Trek ship i.e. lifeboat hatches, windows, phaser arrays, transporter emitters etc.

Brilliant Class Starship


The Brilliant Class Starship started life as a biro sketch done just after seeing 'Star Trek: Generations'.  As we all know, Picard's Enterprise D was destroyed at the end of that film and sketched out a few ideas for the Enterprise E.

Fast forward 17 years and the sketch turns up in a cleanout.  I look at it and think 'I should finish that'.  Here is the end result.
