I would love to see more Saladin-class, Hermes-class, Ptolemy-class and Federation-class starships

That IS nice, and one reason I need to UV mine. As far as I know, I'll need textures to get the dirt and grime of a real workhorse starship.
Very nice render. She definitely looks like she's been around the block a few times.

Thank you!

I based her on the Tamerlane webcomic.

When I saw this class in the manuel for the first time, I thought: "What the heck is this, Little Dipper-class?"

lovely work and i have to agree that non canon is more interesting than "by the book" official stuff.

Thank you!

And for canon and non-canon. Canon gave us Jean-Luc "Woodballs" Picard. Non-canon gave us the Little T.

Excellent rendering of the Saladin Class starship. I know according to offical canon that starfleet vessels are suppose to have dual nacelles but I really like this design.

The Saladin Class IS official nowadays, Gene Roddenberry made some VERY idiotic mistakes in his later life. 1) the Star Trek Starfleet Technical Manual (where the Saladin came from), WAS Canon when it was released, and sanctioned by the studio and Gene himself.
He de-canonised it because he had an argument with Franz Joseph over starship designs = petty. 2) The Animated Series WAS Canon when released, it was sanctioned by the studio, Gene produced it and most of the original cast were involved, then all of a sudden Gene decided it wasn't, only live action was and the series got swept under the carpet like it didn't exist!!
Today, the studio has righted most of these, incleding canonising the pocket book series Star Trek: Titan 's

Ahem sorry pressed the wrong button!

The Luna class by above is a canon design too!

Frankly, I spit at official canon. Most non-official stuff beat the crap out of the official.

Or the AU stories. Man, there was a short story in which Spock was never born, Kirk's friend was an Andorian (a la TAS: Yesteryear) and the Klingons invaded the friggin' Federation!
