It is tiny! If you gave a hull extension on the Burke, it'd probably look like the Soyuz.

And I like the slightly edited ENT-Prise. The darker sections of hull plating make it seem much more reminiscent of the NX.

Yeah, I definitely screwed up the scale on that - but thats okay, its not the final model, just a prelim bash.

No offense but, I would like to see a smaller version of the connie floating around.

Looking better. Thou, if it's gonna be "ENTified", the texturing will have to look a bit more "metallic" eventually.

I think a gold version would look good for a ENTified version of the TOS Enterprise. Also, remove the forward deflector on the drive section and make it more...ENT like, flatter or something.

I'm not so solid on using the NX colors anymore, to be honest.

The deflector is currently clipped at the top and bottom - having a wide but flat deflector wouldn't work when its attached to the cylindrical secondary hull.

I dont understand your comment - could you please clarify?

EDIT:
Added another render.

Smaller versions of ships, well with the same size deck proportions, but like just smaller lol.

Umm...that just doesn't work. That means the decks themselves would be smaller. Unless you reduce the deck count, you can't really make a ship smaller.

Are you saying having a Destroyer-sized craft, but in the same part configuration as a connie? I would do it something like the NX-05 Atlantis that LC put out.

EDIT: shot of the bottom of the saucer

EDIT2: Fractal flames, FTW

FourChan · « **Reply #28 on:** May 14, 2009, 03:29:43 PM »

No no, what I meant was like...same size decks, fewer decks on a smaller version scale of ships. Imagine a sovvie, half the size, half the decks with the normal sized bridge from other models etc. Some ships would look awkward but neat in that configuration XD

Furyofaseraph · « **Reply #29 on:** May 14, 2009, 03:32:57 PM »

I did something similar when I scaled down the saucer for my Okinawa, but that was a rarity - I think doing that for the entire ship wouldn't work well.

Darkthunder · « **Reply #30 on:** May 14, 2009, 08:24:21 PM »

Made a quick edit of that last render. Imho, it would look alot better. But it's ofcourse up to you.

Furyofaseraph · « **Reply #31 on:** May 14, 2009, 08:52:28 PM »

I was thinking about going blue with the grille and red with the bussards, but I felt there was enough blue as it is. Plus - look at my TMP fleet.

ACES_HIGH · « **Reply #32 on:** May 14, 2009, 10:02:25 PM »

you could use white like the NX-05

FourChan · « **Reply #33 on:** May 15, 2009, 02:04:55 AM »

On the nacelles, I would do a Kroener type effect, but on the side of the hull instead of the lights running vertical, I would run them down towards the nacelles. Though only activate them when the ships gone to warp, same with the blue part of the engine nacelles.

but then it loses the qualities that link it to my TMP connie.

You mean a pulsing light that raises up the nacelle strut when warp is on? If that's what you mean, it feels too flashy to me. I want this new-TOS to be close close to the TOS without going overboard. The changes I've made are just to sort of fit it in better with my own idea of design lineage. In other words I just FoaSized it.

Your bussard collectors look bloodshot.

Furyofaseraph · « **Reply #36 on:** May 15, 2009, 10:47:56 PM »

Too much caffine in the intermix chamber

Edit: Something else on the horizon. its a WIP so I haven't replaced all the textures. Original Mesh by WickedZombie
I plan on making all my TMP klinks have the Qonos One colors (which I liked so much more than the defaults).

bumping just to show off new content ^_^
