John Eaves (born April 9, 1962) is a designer and illustrator best known for his work on the Star Trek franchise, starting with The Final Frontier. He served as a production illustrator on Deep Space Nine and Enterprise and was involved in all four Next Generation movies, specifically being responsible for the design of the Sovereign-class Enterprise-E. He also worked on a variety of films, such as Top Gun, Judgment Day, Valkyrie and The Rise of Cobra.

Biography

The first film Eaves worked on was Top Gun, as a model maker. These included the F-14 Tomcat and Northrop F-5 models which were used for the special effects shots of the aircraft. Prior to his work on the film, he had been working as a produce clerk at Bayless Markets.[1] Eaves also worked as a model maker on a variety of other films, including Spaceballs and Judgment Day.[2] He also worked on the television series SeaQuest DSV.[2] His first work on the Star Trek franchise was on The Final Frontier whilst working at Greg Jein's model shop in Marina del Rey, California.[3] His first design was the wing cannon for the Klingon Bird of Prey.[4]

Eaves was introduced to Herman Zimmerman through Eaves' friend Phil Edgerly. Zimmerman was looking for someone to put together a display of Enterprise, and Eaves drew up a plan for the display. Zimmerman was impressed by the artwork, and asked Eaves to join his design team for Star Trek Generations.[5]

After the work on Generations ended, Eaves returned to his work constructing fibreglass models. When an job became available on the Deep Space Nine art department during season four,[2] Zimmerman invited Eaves to join the team.[5] At the time, Eaves was working on a Boeing 747 model for the film Executive Decision.[2] Eaves spent the next twelve years working on one incarnation of Star Trek or another.[5] During this time, his work included the designs of the Phoenix, the Enterprise-E and the Vulcan ship from First Contact.[6] The initial model of the Enterprise-E was constructed by Eaves.[7]

His design work featured in the Deep Space Nine episode "Far Beyond the Stars", during the part of the episode set in the 1950s.[2] After working on Insurrection, where his designs included the Son'a vessels, Zimmerman brought Eaves onto the team behind Enterprise as Production Illustrator.[6] Whilst working on that series, he started work on the Enterprise (NX-01), as well as the Suliban vessels.[8] His work on the final TNG film Nemesis included the design of the Reman starship, the Scimitar.[9]

John has most recently been known to have worked on Star Trek Discovery and the 2009 Star Trek film, and he was also involved with Perpetual Entertainment as a production consultant and illustrator on their now defunct MMOG, Star Trek Online, though many of his contributions remain intact within the version that was developed by Cryptic Studios.[4][10] He also provided the designs of the spaceships for the science fiction themed social network MyOuterSpace.[11] He was also in charge of art direction for Renegades, a fan produced pilot funded through Kickstarter and made by the creators of Of Gods and Men.[12] He worked on several films as an illustrator following Star Trek, including Tropic Thunder, Valkyrie and The Rise of Cobra.[13]

As of 2015, he is also a member of the board of advisers for the Hollywood Science Fiction Museum.
