Star Trek "What if" - Blender 3D 4K* 

The RCS thrusters when the Enterprise fell out of warp was an excellent touch

I've never thought of the Excelsior class to look "evil" before. It's crazy how much perspective can change things.

"Tell me about that ship." "Excelsior-class. Two times the size, three times the speed. Overthought plumbing with easily stoppable drains."

Ohhhh, those maneuvering thrusters to stop the uncontrolled spin was a beautiful attention to detail.

The nacelle power-up should become standard in all future Trek productions. Brilliant concept.

I LOVE the effect you made for the nacelles as they go to warp. A lot of the choices made in this were INSPIRED.

Wasn’t expecting to get shit scared by an Excelsior of all ships but you’ve done it.

The warp field grilles illuminating like that is VERY cool. The Enterprise's thrusters firing to stop her tumbling is also very cool.

I remember what Captain Styles said in Star Trek 3: "If he tries to escape with warp drive, he's really in for a shock."

Now this is what into darkness should have been. I love the fact that you can actually see the shields!

The Enterprise’s thrusters firing to level herself out is a very nice detail.

I'll never forget sitting in the theaters nearly eleven years ago watching Star Trek Into Darkness with my brother. When THAT scene happened, my brother turned to me and excitedly asked, "Is that the Excelsior!?" Clearly we weren't the only ones thinking that.

This Star Trek recreation in Blender is nothing short of mesmerizing. The level of detail and craftsmanship you've put into bringing the Star Trek universe to life is truly commendable. The attention to authenticity and the captivating visuals make it an immersive experience. Your dedication to the project shines through, creating a truly mesmerizing rendition of the Star Trek world.

Excellent! The Excelsior has never looked more menacing.

These two minutes were better than all three JJ movies. Excelsior would actually make an incredibly intimidating aggressor ship against a Connie.

love how this demonstrates how scary starfleet can look from the receiving end

This is utterly BEAUTIFUL! I adore how the saucer designs look in this setting. Especially how the Excelsior looks super menacing just like the Vengeance from the kelvin timeline. I adore the enterprise. She may be old, but she's still nimble and sleek. I also love the detail of the thrusters going into overdrive to stop the Enterprises spin. That was nice to see. I also love the background and warp effects. They're neat aswell! This was definitely worth the wait.

Absolutely gorgeous... The little details, the thrusters firing to stabilize the Enterprise after it falls out of warp, the nacelles coming online... I'm in awe.

All this proves is that the prime universe ship designs were significantly better and could have been just as daunting.

I love the TMP-style streaks when the ships fly by at warp

Absolute proof that the ship designs did not need to be "modernized" for the kelvin movies, Discovery, or SNW.

YOU GOTTA DO MORE OF THESE, Making these old ladies look new and aggressive, TOP NOTCH!

LOVE the RCS burns. trek needs to show more of that.

Adore the little touch of the the RCS thrusters burning hard to stop the ship spinning when it drops out of warp, a great little detail!

The warp glow on the nacelles looks so cool! The charge up so amazing!

When Excelsior appeared, for a second I hoped that a Galaxy-Class would appear right behind it to protect the Constitution Great work, loved it!

The animation on the nacells is AMAZING. This whole thing is amazing

God the vapour coming off the phaser canon, and the nacelle effect before warping. Beautiful.

I do love the fact it feels like it would have been better than what we saw in the Abrams films for redoing the design of the Enterprise and a fitting ship having the Excelsior be the one hunting it and firing at the Enterprise.

In an alternate reality, where Captain Sulu went rogue and evil...oh my!

"Kirk, I told you not to do this... and now you'll never sit in the Captain's Chair again!"

Excellent work. Ever since Picard Season 3 I've seen so many folks try to make different ships look as pissed off and mean as the Intrepid. You are the first person to really succeed at it.

As an Excelsior fanboy, this video is truly badass

Wonderful! I love how the nacelles start up.

What's so interesting is that fans can make more compelling stories and scenes that the "professionals." Shows the power of inspiration. @TU that's is an awesome scene - I wish it was in the movie!

The 70's Star Trek designs are the most beautiful space ships imaginable. The balance and logic of their designs far surpass any other designs in science fiction as a whole, and I am saying that as a person who doesn't really have a favorite sci-fi show or movie series.

This is spectacular. The warp nacelle power up effect is the coolest thing I've seen in a long time.

The red glow on the Excelsior's sensor dome was a super cool touch that made the ship look a little more evil.

Now THAT was impressive!!!!!!!!!! This is what they should have done on the big screen. it works so well, the same designs that we know and love

Magnificent. This is where you tube comes alive. A true fan sharing his time and love, to gives a moments entertainment to others. With people like you, our great sci fi franchises will never die. Thank you.

Dude, I REALLY like your style! Very unique. I like the mixture of ST3 + Into Darkness and then an homage to ST2 with the nebula? Really cool. I hope we’ll see more Star Trek retold through your eye. Edit: Just rewatched it again… the detail with the maneuvering thrusters… chef’s kiss!

Chuckled at the little "NYY-OPE!" sound as the Enterprise hops the heck outta there at warp.

Now I really REALLY want you to do the whole movie. Just wow. The torpedo launchers, the charging effect of the nacelles, just everything is absolutely perfect. Not to mention the sound effects and choice of music. Incredible.

Okay, as someone who loves Star Trek into darkness and the USS Vengeance, having the excelsior in its place is something have ALWAYS wanted to see. Well done!

Absolutely stunning. The framing, music and the little touches like the nacelles energising. Put's that movie to shame.

When a less than two minutes video is beyond better than the same sequence of events from "Into Darkness" 😂😍💯

The guns or whatever they are coming out of the Excelsior at the beginning, those holes they are coming out of are if I remember (historically) the forward shuttle bays. Not to take anything away form this video, it's fantastic!

It's easy to forget how much bigger the Excelsior is! There's a good reason they're still around in the TNG-era shows.

Really well done! I love the Constitution refit! My favorite ship!

Seeing those RCS thrusters pop into action after coming out of warp....dang! Snazzy AF!

Why does this look better than the effects for Discovery and Strange New Worlds.... Excellent Job!!

WOW! Brilliant work. Star Trek at it's finest. Using the Excelsior class as an antagonist is a stroke of genius - it is not designed to 'look evil or a bully' but when in the wrong hands, it is very scary. I second all the other comments regarding the thrusters, shields and warp effects.

Excellent illustration of why the Constution is a "heavy cruiser" and the Excelsior is a "battleship". ❤

Scotty disses and Sabotaged excelsior, now excelsior's pissed off! 😂 Awesome work! This is how the movie should have been made❤

Good gravy! This is my favorite scene from Into Darkness, and it's amazing to see with the prime universe. Proof the old designs are just as cinematic for today as they once were with the right angles and effects.

I love the nacelle charge up effect to warp for both ships, that is so cool! 😍

Well done, what an homage to both ships. I like how it’s NX-2000 Excelsior. Cpt. Styles is possibly in command.. 🤔 When I was a kid the Constitution class on TV and its beautiful refit on the big screen were all there was to be seen for Federation starships. Then we got the Oberth and Miranda classes, which seemed to compliment the Constitution type nicely. And then the Excelsior showed up. It was classified as a battleship, made sense.. Grissom and Reliant had their very distinct looks, but now we got to directly compare the very similar Enterprise and Excelsior. The progress of Starfleet.. What a treat this video was for anyone who enjoyed the introduction of all these new ships, especially the Excelsior..

Wow. Just wow. What a time to be alive and see amazing work like this

Brilliantly done. Perhaps the two best looking starships in one shot.

All you need is lightning and atmosphere, and suddenly a modern day aging workhouse is the terror of the 1800s... Wow.

The best addition to the trek style for me was the way you had the warp coils power up. Bro that was sexy.

Actually cool how far cumputer technology has come. Know a lot of people can make star trek battles that look better then some of the old new ones. Very nice work

Superb work. I think no scene is as good as this across all licensed Star Trek.

Well, that would have made for a shorter STIII! Lovely work. Absolutely fantastic to see the Excelsior like this. Minor gripe - the smoke from the guns shouldn't be falling down in zero G and would just move in a straight fuzz in a vacuum. But this is Trek not the Expanse so we'll let that one go!

It just proves the fundamental misconception that the Kelvin films fell into. That Kirk, Bones, & Spock are nothing with out our lady and in her refit A. Gives me chills with no dialogue/ music cues whatsoever.

Just looking at other peoples blender projects as I've just started my journey and thought I'd managed something half decent.... This is next level amazing!

Excelsior: "Call me a bucket of bolts will you!?"

SICK! Glad to see this made it to completion.

Wow.....wow......wowowowoowowow......this is exactly why the production studios should be getting people like this to make movies...they would save a ton of money and get a 100 percent better product....dude, I would watch a full length movie on nothing but a space chase and battle of this companies material.... bravo......a standing O......bravo...it lookwd like everything was thought of.

To make a sleek Federation design like the Excelsior look that menacing is nothing short of a miracle. Holy fuck.

This was amazing, as a lifelong Trek fan thank you for making this.

This feels like it would fit right in for an episode of Picard S3, like the OG Enterprise and her crew somehow find their way into the 25th Century and end up working alongside the Titan-A to stop the Borg-Changeling plot, and a compromised Starfleet decides to send a refitted Excelsior after the legendary Federation flagship as it runs to warn the Titan

This more entertaining than all the Trek I've seen since Undiscovered Country.

Never before has an Excelsior looked so menacing. I think not even the Vengeance looked that evil.

I actually felt a little vertigo during the warp effects...That's how good it was!

On of the worst scenes, from a Star Trek being confused with Star Wars tech perspective, of Into Darkness. That said, I do have to agree with many of the comments. Crazy how perspective changes things. And excellent attention to detail! Fantastic work.

I thoroughly enjoyed this. So special to see excelsior class next to constellation class AND so obviously created with passion and love. Well done!

Oh this is fantastic and reminds me of how much I wanted to see the vengeance refit as the excelsior in Beyond.

Super super impressive.

Absolutely MAGNIFICENT . THANKS . Help _keep_ the dream alive !

Man, the Excelsior variants have always been my favorite series of Trek ship (TMP is best style era in general imo), but you managed to make it look intimidating as heck.

This is absolutely incredible! One ship that would look menacing AF in this case would be an encounter with the CSS World Razer. Armed to the teeth and beyond, slipping through a spatial wormhole....oof.

This was so well composed! The ambience and modelling/animation really enhanced what Into Darkness had if not better. I not a huge fan of Kelvin Timeline, but it does have some good starship scenes. You paid attention to details and utilized the Excelsior exteriors ports effectively. The immediate chase scene is highly enjoyable! All in all, well done!

id normally be critical of people making too many new creative choices on existing canon materials, but this.. is Awesome!

This was pretty badass well done and shows how badass and scary a evil excelsior could be

Those thrusters AWESOME

I love the lighting up of the warp nacelles. I always thought that it would take some time to fire up warp drive, rather than this instantaneous burst of speed that seems to be more common in the last few versions of Trek series and movies.

A very well done reinterpretation/adaptation of our beloved classic starships. Gorgeous!

Proof that you don't need to retcon ship aesthetics to make it look modern.

Tuesday finally came!!!!!!!!! Absolutely amazing.

God, I just felt so bad for the cony, but that was so good. I hope Kirk rocks the excelsior though....❤

that's a wonderful transition to the mutara nebula at the end I wish the vengeance was an excelsior class

I LOVE this video scene of Star Trek, Excellent work, TU

Really beautiful colors. Nice blend of Trek ships with the JJ camera.

I really like how the warp nacelles start to light up before the warp jump.

Absolutely beautiful work, the lighting design and colour palette are stunning.

Seeing the nacelles light up looks amazing, really adds something to that design of nacelle. And using the thrusters as it crushed out of warp really gave it a real physics sort of feel. Amazing work.

That there is talent! Good job! Everything from the lighting to the movements.

Got to agree with previous comments, the nacelle charge up on the Excelsior Class ship really caught my eye, great work. Puts my Blender Star Trek clips to shame!

Finally using those magical Trans Warp capabilities that were definitely not forgotten about
