I took Glenn's advice and shortened the nacelle pylons about 15%. Here are some comparison shots. Which do you guys prefer?

That looks bluddy brilliant

I would say the shortened naceles look better proportioned to the rest of the ship and look more streamlined

the left one is the shortened?
doesnt make much difference for me.

There we go, Dj. Lookin' good.

The longer nacelle pylons look better, the short ones bring the warp nacelles to close to the body and it looks wrong.

awesome

yanlou · « **Reply #129 on:** January 27, 2008, 03:39:29 PM »

maybe the pylons should be somewhere in between the too lengths

Glenn · « **Reply #130 on:** January 27, 2008, 03:53:59 PM »

Very nice indeed DJ, I like the shortened pylons a lot better!!

I like the longer one. The wider wedge shape gives the impression that the vessel is fast and maneuverable, able to make tight "kick" turns within it's own length. And the overall look of the vessel sort of reminds me of the Akira, ( one of my favorite Canon designs, ) which also had a wedge-type profile from the front, and side aspect angles.

I agree, the nacele's should be longer

Ya, the shorter pylons look better. Damn, that ship is looking awesome.

Billz · « **Reply #135 on:** January 28, 2008, 08:07:07 AM »

Shorter Pylons.

:arms:

rengers · « **Reply #136 on:** January 28, 2008, 09:06:28 AM »

hm, difficult, I think I like the longer ones more, but I like the short ones in some way too.
well, it's up to you, but anyway, this is a totally awsome looking ship

DJ Curtis · « **Reply #137 on:** January 28, 2008, 09:34:54 AM »

it's not a big difference, really. I bet if I hadn't posted about the shortened pylons, no one would have noticed. lol.

Asylum · « **Reply #138 on:** January 28, 2008, 11:29:09 AM »

I like both TBH

I perfer the longer pylons, the shorter ones don't seem to fit the look of the ship IMO.
