I created this using Blender 3.5 and wanted to fill in some of the gaps in what we see on screen. The Daedalus class was designed an built during the 22nd Century as the war with the Romulan Star Empire began to come to a conclusion. Originally, the design was for long range, independent exploratory voyages for the United Earth Space Probe Agency, UESPA.
A short film, I am open to feedback as always.

In a world where the boundaries between home and office have dissolved, Henry Simmons finds himself navigating a surreal existence. The Emergency, a cataclysmic event that has reshaped society, looms over every aspect of his life. His once ordinary routine is now dominated by the relentless hum of a computer terminal and the oppressive weight of Ministry of Supply rations. As The Emergency tightens its grip, Henry's home becomes a fortress against the encroaching chaos of a society on the brink of collapse. Amidst the suffocating heat and the ever-present threat of starvation, Henry's existence is a blend of monotony and dread. The outside world, a desolate wasteland of abandoned streets and burning houses, offers no solace. In this dystopian landscape, Henry's struggle for survival becomes a reflection of a world where the familiar has become alien, and the mundane has turned into a waking nightmare. Yet, amidst this bleak reality, there is Helen, a fleeting connection that brings a glimmer of hope and humanity to Henry's isolated life. Together, they navigate the treacherous landscape, seeking moments of respite and connection in a world that has lost its way.New Star Trek Fan Production link below #startrek #startrekfan #startrekshipsLea Design Bureau2026-07-08 | ...Galatea - A Star Trek Fan ProductionLea Design Bureau2026-07-04 | A new project featuring a unique fan design - the USS Galatea.

'Phoenix' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.auOne Hundred Years Adrift Redux - A Star Trek Fan ProductionLea Design Bureau2026-05-01 | An abandoned Daedalus class cruises through space.
I re-watched an old video I posted a few years back, it was the first video that got any sort of decent views. I recently rebuilt a Daedalus class model (my third now) with new textures and a lot more detail so I thought I'd re-do that video as a side project.
I created this using Blender 5.0 and wanted to fill in some of the gaps in what we see on screen.
The Daedalus class was designed an built during the 22nd Century as the war with the Romulan Star Empire began to come to a conclusion. Originally, the design was for long range, independent exploratory voyages for the United Earth Space Probe Agency, UESPA.
Aside from some on-screen models, the ship has not been realised in CGI before. Interestingly, the design was inspired by a rejected proposal for the original TOS USS Enterprise and so was not used. It isn't the most majestic of designs however the more simple shapes and lines evoke a less advanced era, so it works as a part of canon history.
I was also attempting to make the early voyages deep into space feel much more terrifying than we have seen on screen. If you have any comments, leave them below and I will get back to you.

Rich in resources, and the remains of an advanced and long-dead civilisation, galactic powers vie for control.
It has become a flashpoint for exploration, exploitation and conflict.
The Federation pushes deep into the Reach, establishing the Vanguard station. The Tholians observe, and listen, and plot...but the Klingon Empire is restive and not so likely to allow the humans to control the territory...without a fight.

This is my first animation rendered using Blender 5.0. I've made a few technical changes also, using ACES 1.3 Colour Management and outputting in Lossless AVI from Adobe After Effects. You should see an improved quality even after YouTube compression.
There is a new model in here which will also feature in the next video that'll be uploaded.
