Greg Jein's "Fat-D" The first Enterprise-D clay study model produced to help refine form and detail. The last photo is a second model, much closer to the final starship.

A photo of five photographs of the Enterprise-D study model. The envelope reads 'JEIN / color prints "FAT-D"

Four of the photos as they appeared in a Star Trek art book. 'The Continuing Mission', IIRC.

The second, more familiar-looking study model. The saucer could even separate.

I really believe Spock’s protege, a by-the-book Vulcan fast-tracked for Starfleet command, and Kirk’s son, a hot-headed rule-breaking scientist, should have formed the nucleus of a next generation of Star Trek, if not THE Next Generation.

LT. GRABES (INTERCOM)
Captain to the bridge! All decks, alert!
CAPTAIN MADISON lifts himself up and wanders to a view screen. He flicks the screen on and a squints at the bizarrely fresh and mildly pleased face of LT. GRABES.
CAPTAIN MADISON
What the hell’s going on GRABES?
LT. GRABES
We’ve spotted an enemy vessel, Sir. It appears to be disabled.
CAPTAIN MADISON
I’m on my way.

EXT. DEEP SPACE
The Stalwart approaches a drifting Bird of Prey. Sparks softly vent from a hole in its midsection.
INT. STALWART BRIDGE
The turbolift doors open and CAPTAIN MADISON and LT. COMMANDER JORDAN step out. They take their positions as the night shift vacates.
CAPTAIN MADISON
Status report, Mr. Grabes.
LT. GRABES
The Romulan vessel is damaged and adrift, Captain. It’s engineering section is exposed to space. Several heat signs aboard indicate survivors. Readings show they have enough battery power for minimal life-support.

CAPTAIN MADISON (MUTTERING TO HIMSELF)
We’ve never seen a Romulan ship this close up that wasn’t firing on us or blowing itself up. (ALOUD TO JORDAN) You’re thoughts, Commander?
LT. COMMANDER JORDAN turns to face CAPTAIN MADISON.
LT. COMMANDER JORDAN
Could be a trap, sir. In four years of war no Earth vessel has ever experienced a situation like this.
CAPTAIN MADISON clasps his hands and rests his chin on them. He looks intently at the view screen.
CAPTAIN MADISON
Without warp drive a sneak attack would be impossible. We’d see them coming a light year away.

LT. COMMANDER JORDAN
It could be a suicide mission. Wait for us to get close and then self-destruct taking us with them.
LT. GRABES
That’s definitely a possibility, sir. But they would require one hell of a power build up on very short notice. Their fusion reactors are cold.
LT. COMMANDER JORDAN
(TO GRABES SMILING) If that’s the case then we have ourselves a real prize! (TO MADISON) A Romulan ship with real Romulans on board. Even dead we’d finally get a look at them face to face.
CAPTAIN MADISON stares at the view screen even more intently. His eyes squint in deep thought. We see the Romulan ship grow larger in the viewer, her damage becoming more apparent.

Here are all the shots we get of the blue-eyed avian alien in the #StarTrekSNW episode for your viewing pleasure - definitely an extra in an elaborate costume and not a CG creature. The legs are never seen in the episode, it would have been a little more tricky to match the avien legs. 2/2

What is your favourite non-canon ship design? It could be an unmade concept, or even a fan design (please name fan creator if possible) It should be no surprise that I am very fond of the cancelled Phase II Enterprise

And SeaQuest also started with Captain Bridger being manipulated to take the command he doesn't want. One thing we both noted about the two 90s space station pilots. Both leads are war vets. Yet, Commander Sinclair wants to be on Babylon 5 working alongside the former enemy. He even enjoys it!

Art by Gokhan Kahraman of three Spocks pointing at each other, as in the Spider-Man meme. One of these really should have been Zachary Quinto Spock, but maybe Cryptic don't currently have the licence for him? This is for Star Trek Online 'Rediscovered'.

I love how for a brief moment they considered just STAR TREK, letting the differences do the talking. Also, they figured if it didn’t make it past year one they could add it as a fourth season to the original’s syndication package.
