Description

This is the main engineering of the Potemkin, an Excelsior-Class starship that was mentioned several times in 'Star Trek: The Next Generation'. It was one of the previous postings of William Riker, before being XO on the Enterprise.


For several additional renders, please visit my portfolio .


The room itself is completely original in design, as we never saw a full Engineering set for the Excelsior Class during the TNG era. I based the overall design on some engine rooms we did see, like that of the Enterprise-D, Hathaway, and Pegasus.


As with my other Potemkin interiors, it was made to be a realistic set under the spatial and monetary constrains that the TNG production crew had during the show's run. Hence the only element of this set which isn't based on an existing production prop is the warp core itself; which was designed with cues of the exterior shape of the Excelsior as a basis, hence its curved, flowing lines.


3D model done in Blender, texture work and computer displays done in Inkscape

amazing! loving the recessed level - reminds me of the Pegasus. The warp-core is a thing of beauty!

You know, looking at it again i noticed the inner darker walls of the recressed center floor would have been very useful tool drawers with just the tiny addition of a few handles.

Ya know, laser torch, fire extinguisher, handscanner, hidden doughnut stash, that sort of stuff. Might be handy given the location.

This is incredible I like this Engineering room concept; I especiallyΒ the idea of having the pool table sunken because it really looks more "secure" looking.Β Β

Literally every starship has a better main engineering than the Enterprise-D Β
