Hey Wiley, are you going to give the Valkyrie Invasion-esque weapons (Type 10 and Type 9 phasers, 10x Photons and Quantums) or create something a little different?
Currently, the Valkyries use the same weapons as my first release, but the pulse phasers are different. Also, the Argonaut now launches them.  :dance

Gorgeous. Can't wait to play with these buggers.
"To live on as we have is to leave behind joy, and love, and companionship, because we know it to be transitory, of the moment. We know it will turn to ash. Only those whose lives are brief can imagine that love is eternal. You should embrace that remarkable illusion. It may be the greatest gift your race has ever received."

The Valkyrie and Argonaut look like they were made for each other, that's for sure.

 Awesome screencaps. :thumbsup:

I'd though I would share my next WIP, the Sona Battleship. I am finishing up the upper ribbing detail and central structure, then I'll start on the lower half. Currently, the mesh is 8.3k polys. Enjoy!

My love
Is wand'ring in star-flight
I know
He'll find in star-clustered reaches
Love,
Strange love a star woman teaches.
I know
His journey ends never
His star trek
Will go on forever.
But tell him
While he wanders his starry sea
Remember, remember me."

The ship's ribbing, to my surprise, is the easiest part to build than parts of the ship. They are actually modeled to the ship and not individual parts.
The mesh, currently is in 2 parts- the ship and the upper central fin. I now tend to build my ships with as few objects as possible.

Also, happy birthday to me! :D

-Fires two transphasic cookies-

Always loved this ship and your mesh brings it out!
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.
