Favorite Ship Design (All sci-fi included)

Mine has to be the Executor and Constitution Refit. I do appreciate the quirky little design of Serenity, as well.

Ditto for the Connie refit and Executor. The old Galactica was a good solid-looking ship. The Andromeda Ascendant is another good one, despite being rather fragile-looking.

The Eclipse Class Super Star Destroyer. Shame not more were built :(


And Descent Freespace's Shivan ships. They just look so alien and so cool. I used to make them out of legos.

My top 5 starships.

#5) The TARDIS. Come on, who wouldn't want one of theese? :)


#4) The Prometheus (from Stargate). Looks great. Pity it got blown up. :(


#3) BattleStar Galactica. I like the looks of it and it seems a good design.


#2) The Constitution class. Not a great design, but I still love it for being the reason I got interested in sci-fi.


#1) The Imperial Star Destroyer. Nice eficient design, excelent weapons coverage and you just know that if you provoke it you're in for a lot of pain.

Moya from FarScape. I fell in love with that ship the first moment I saw her.

The White Stars from Babylon 5. I don't care what JMS says, I think those ships are beautiful. The Minbari Cruisers are, too.

The Excelsior, Ambassador, Constitution II, Miranda, Akira, and the Sovereign from Star Trek.

The TARDIS, the Consitution refit, the Millennium Falcon, the Odyssey from 2001. Oh, and yeah, the White Stars.

Varthikes, JMS really said the White Stars were ugly???

His exact words were that he did not like the design because they looked to him liked "plucked chickens".

Didn't... one of those crew members from a fifth season episode say that? One of the maintenance workers?

That's right. Undoubtedly JMS transmitting his opinion into the show.

I would have to say the Sovereign Class and the X-wing are my two favorite types of ships

I like how the sovereign class ship looks, also the andromeda ascendant. there's a little known ship called the argama from zeta gundam that i'm also a fan of.

Thanks for reminding me...

I love the Asgard motherships in SG1, too. Especially the O'Neill-class.
