It's vice versa. Doug Drexler, head of the FX team that created NX-01 for Enterprise, liked Alex Jaegar's 1996 sketches of the Akira class for First Contact. Drexler admittedly "got lazy" when designing the NX-01 and used a lot of the elements of the Akira in the design. Ex Astra Scientia has a good article here: http://tinyurl.com/ypu9pz Do you find this valuable?
