Favourite Spaceship design

I'll start it off.... i don't think anyone can go past the legendary X-wing..

I have always like the Voyager Starship in StarTrek.

As for Star Wars The best one there for me would be the Ship fo Queen Amidala:

The X-wing is cool but I thought it was too ordinary, they should have had made some advances to it in the latter episodes, maybe curved the wings a bit or swept them back.

B5 Starfury beats the X-wing for me personally. Just my opinion though

Minbari Cruiser

Vorlon ships............in fact, almost all ships in B5 were very cool

Anyone remember the cylon raider from BSG...?

Does this count?



Dunno though, it could use more missiles....

Another of my favourites from BSG...




LOL Where did you find that mean machine??

It's the Dropship from the movie: Aliens. I love it, it's like an A-10 on wayyy too many steroids.

Anyway, that's not a Cylon Raider... THIS is a Cylon Raider:

Nope! Mine is the real Cylon raider!

Don't believe me? Look here

Man that url is massive. Yeah I know, I've not seen the new BSG.

I'd defianately recommend the new BSG - its much better than the original.

I came across this website again, thought you guys might like it STARSHIP DIMENSIONS

I love the deadulus class ships from Stargate.

But the new Ori motherships are freakin amazing, they look like theyre powered by their own little star.

www.belowtopsecret.com...

Even though I love the Cylon raider (new ones), I have to googly eye the NX-01. I mean, that just screams speed (to me anyway):

I dont know why I didnt even think about this one before.
THe City of Atlantis, from Stagate Atlantis!

<-------------

That whole city is a huge spaceship with FTL capabilities.
:drools: mmmm star drive.....
That is most definetely my favorite ship.

I have to agree with Implosion, Ive always been a fan of the Marine Dropship from Aliens.

I think it indeed counts since its able to fly into and out of outerspace, though its main role is dropping off troops and equipment no doubt it could fire its weapons is space.


I also like Talyn from FarScape

I really like the concept of a living ship

The Millennium Falcon!!!! Great for smuggling

The one mile long Excalibur starship, from the Babylon 5 spinoff, Crusade

The best looking human built spaceship from sci-fi shows, in my opinion. I especially like their main guns, the way the beam comes out is almost like the Borg-destroying beams of a Species 8472 bioship --

external image

You know, it even looks like an 8472 bioship...only way bigger.

external image

Hmm.... who stole who's idea here? Anyway, my second choice for the best looking human-built spacecraft would be the Prometheus class starships from Star Trek --

external image

Yeah, I know, it kind of looks like that walking-fish skull they found up in Canada... No matter, it's a cool ship. It can split into three different crafts that can be made to coordinate an attack on the enemy. They call it multi-vector attack mode I think --

external image

Awesome!

Yeah, it's called Multi-Vector Attack mode.

Here's one for ya as far as Starships go:

external image

It's the future USS Enterprise D. It only appeared in "All Good Things...", the last episode, because in I think the first TNG-related movie, the D was destroyed, and a new Enterprise was built.

I'll try to find a pic of this puppy firing it's main laser. I've heard that it was built to counteract the Klingon Neg'Var class, which is like a ship on steroids.

Okay, I'm going to stop sounding like a Trekkie, but the only reason I know all this is because I play a lot of Trek related games on the Internet.

Definately the Spaceship from the Final Fantasy movie.

I like the Leonov from the movie 2010. I liked how it had the rotating section to simulate gravity.
