but I have a question:
when seperating, where will it be seperated? already thought about that?
will i be the discus, or the discus + the connecting wing?!

Thats still to be modelled as of yet..

but yet.. the upper pylon on either side will be equipped with a defiant type warp necelle, very slim and low powered.. so from the pylons up will be 1 ship, and from the top of the pylons down will be the other..

I will render seperated shots when the details are modeld


thanks

this is what the original oberth should have looked like in general. I im digging this design Jericho. I do have one question though what is that circular indent on the saucer rim?

Could be a docking port.

spend a couple more polys in these areas to try to smooth it out. looks fantastic, but IMO these spots just dont quite match the rest of the ship in terms of craftsmanship. im curious to see the deflector for this.

Model your own ship, and then come back and tell people how to model :P

I'm really liking this one Jericho.  My general question though will the main bussard collectors be animated?    I'm seeing this one as such lol.  Great work on this! COOKIE!

First: If you disagree with my comment Technerd89, take it up with me in a Private Message (not public forums).

Second: (Which is also ON TOPIC) is that I think the U.S.S DAVID is a great design, a worthy successor to the Oberth Class.

Great idea. It's the job of a staff member to determine if someones post is out of line. Darkthunder, please keep your vigilantism in check.
I just realised something. I've released over 300 fully modded ships for bridge commander. Bow to your master :D
