I've seen that a couple of times, now, but not from a reliable source, yet. Where'd you find it? Are we sure yet that that's not just a fan render?
As far as what I think of it .... I don't .... *hate* it, I guess. Well, I kinda do. Mainly, it looks to me like the "neck" is slid waaay too far back on the secondary hull, making the whole thing look kind of ungainly.
*shrug* I don't know. I'd have to see it in motion. I'm trying to keep in mind that when I first saw pictures of 1701-D, that looked "wrong" to me, too.
You raise fine points, sir. Of course in whatever crap the E premiered I found myself wondering when they were going to stop making them, since they only lasted a year or so before whatever idiot captain they gave it to managed to destroy the damn thing.
You'd think after a couple of 'oopsies', they'd bench the morons with a desk job. I mean what the hell? How bad off does Starfleet have to be in the recruiting department to be stuck with captains who keep losing their ships?
I mean, I thought the captain was supposed to go down *with* the ship - kind of a self-fixing problem, ifyouknowwhatimean.

.... Yeah, I think that *is* the main problem I have with this design. Take a look at this quick-and-dirty "fixed version" I just Photoshopped and tell me if you don't agree.
Looks more like they just shoved the whole secondary hull forward a lot. Bah, I'm still going to see it, and you can expect much vitriolic ranting to come out of it.

(Don't even get me started on the 1701-E, though. Or as I like to call it, the 1701-XTREEEEM!!)

The butt was truncated.
TMP dish, TMP neck (mostly), TOS neck placement, TOS nacelle placement, ENT nacelles?
