Absolutely magnificent, very true to the film. Great job Wiley!

The green-blue pulse weapons on the fighters are a bit on the slow side.... nothing BCUT couldn't fix however.
Though much is taken, much abides; and though
 We are not now that strength which in old days
 Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
 One equal temper of heroic hearts,
 Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
 To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Well, I just felt like telling you good job with it, I like it. (especially the nuke)

Anyway, I could make a few suggestions, maybe you could add some weapons to the city destroyers, probably just some big slow cannon shots for pesky mid sized ships or something, play around and find something cool. Also, I would move some of the sub systems to more exposed places, keep the insta kill laser (maybe add the power system there too, so there's some explanation as to why it went boom) and maybe make it so that if something bumps into it, it doesn't spin out of control. Also, I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but maybe have it so that doing enough straight damage does destroy it, you might have to add a few more zero's to the health to balance it, or maybe just keep it as is, I don't know.

As for the fighter...... DON'T TOUCH THE NUKE!!!!! It's fun having a one shot weapon that can kill all but the most powerful ships assuming I don't miss.
In the battle of ghosts vs robots, robots always win....except in anime.

I see that everyone is enjoying my ID4 ships. My next update for the rest of the ships (Mothership, Troop Transport, etc) might be next July 4th.

Anyway, here is my next project- the First Contact Enterprise-E (and this overwrites my older wips of the same ship). I'm still working on the engineering hull and I really like how the deflector trench turned out. Currently it is 1.4k polys. Building the eng-hull in halves really helps.

I do realize that I have ST: Nemesis schematics are being used. NO NEED FOR REFERENCE PICS, I know what was changed on the model from FC to NEM.

On the announcement of the FC Sovereign, muy excelente! :)

You know I actually like the Nemesis Sovereign more than the First Contact Sovereign.  She just looks better IMO and the extra weapons don't hurt either.  Although I'm still excited for this because it would be awesome to have a Pre-Dominion War Sovereign to use side by side the Post-Dominion War Sovereign.

The FC Sovvy is the first iteration of the Sovvy we saw and the one I fell in love with.

Beautiful job, Wiley!  Have a cookie! :D

Or earlier on December 25th. It's still too early to tell.

Right now I'm working on the shuttlebay area trying to make it look just right.

I prefered the Sovie in FC, the Nemisis version had far too many torpedo launchers and the saucer ones were added to the most idiotic places.

5 launchers was more than enough and the ship had good around phaser coverage. Great job Wiley! Is there a class between you and DJ that hasn't been covered?  :funny

You know, between DJ and Wiley, we've gotten super high quality versions of every Enterprise other than the NX.  The Enterprise-E looks off to an excellent start.

I love both the FC and Nem Sovvys equally, just for different reasons. The Sovereign is my favorite class/design of Fed starship.

Really look forward to seeing more of this.
