I have been trying to find some more images of a Chimera-Class starship done by Skye Dobbs. the only place I have been able to find some shots of it is here http://www.sttff.net/explorer.html but no other luck. I tried emailing the site master but no response. has anyone seen some of these else where?

try sci-fi meshes.com and actually, i think the author frequents the Millenium CGI forums and I believe his mesh may be in their image archive. I remember when he was building it.

That's a nicely designed ship. It looks like a modernised Miranda/Nebula cross. Cool!

I've done some searching for you, and whilst there is a lot of mentioning of a Chimera class starship, all the designs are (Obviously) fan-made and they are all different.

One thing that confuses me, is the actual name though - are you sure it is the Chimera class?

I ask, because even on the site you have listed, Chimera isn't the name of the class. According to the site, it is actually the Explorer class. You still get the same problem of hundreds of fanboy designs then though...

thanks, down for the lead I'll send another email to Chris

Let us know if you do make any fanfics.

Scatter is doing fanfics of the USS Illustrious, if you didn't know. He's set up a thread with a link to his site.

Perhaps you could do a similar sort of thing...? He might even help you with it or have some ideas. I'm sure he'd help if you contact him.

You could even make a thread and ask people for ideas. You could make a fanfic for the people, so to speak.

In fact, SonOfMogh has already done something similar, and there are 16 pages of ideas! Here you go:


Of course, you could start a new one if you wanted.

Before I forget, here's the link to Scatter's work if you haven't had a look yet:

There are some very good stories on that site and a lot of good info. It takes the Trek Timelines on further than i've seen before. . That explorer reminds me a bit of the Saber

If he continues the way he's going, we won't have anything to complain about
